Visible crew/equipment: As the priest is loading his luggage in the car, a large light is reflected in the quarter panel. It is not the sun, as that is ahead to our right while the light is behind us to the left. (00:51:20)

Directed by: Joseph Sargent
Starring: Joe Lambie, Anthony James, Clare Nono, Cristina Raines

Continuity mistake: As the truck emerges from underground, it lands tearing off the front bumper. The scene cuts away for a moment, and we then see the truck turning around to face the camera, bumper intact. (01:00:10)
Question: Why is William Sanderson, who plays the gas station attendant in the first story, uncredited?
Answer: While I didn't find a specific reason why Sanderson was uncredited, it's not unusual for actors to do this. It can be as a favour to the director, who may be a friend. The actor may just want to be part of the project and volunteers. It can be to help keep budget costs down, as an uncredited role is paid less and avoids SAG contract issues. If it's a non-speaking role, the actor typically does not get credited. Occasionally, an actor may request to have their name removed from the credits because they think the film is bad and will hurt their reputation.
