Revealing mistake: The woman leads a simple but hard life, however, in several close ups, she has long, tapered, finely manicured and polished fingernails.
Continuity mistake: The flying saucer the old woman hacks to pieces with an axe is noticeably not the same one that lands in her attic in the beginning. A cruder version was built for the axing scene because the model used was a studio keepsake - the original spaceship from the classic sf film "Forbidden Planet." (00:23:00)
Continuity mistake: The laser burns on the back of the old woman's left hand disappear when the knife is slicing at her through the door. They return a few shots later, though. (00:10:30 - 00:17:30)
Deliberate mistake: The woman being attacked by the tiny astronauts lives in very primitive conditions, suggesting a hard life with no electricity or running water. But close-ups of her hands show she has perfectly manicured nails.
Revealing mistake: When the old lady touches the door handle right before getting cut by the knife she gets paint smeared on her hand from the door handle before being cut with the knife.
