Visible crew/equipment: When Burt shoots at the Shrieker with the high-powered rifle, a frame of two before the Shrieker explodes, a wire is visible at the tip of its beak, holding it up. (01:16:45)
Visible crew/equipment: When Burt Gummer is shooting at the Shrieker, in the top left corner of the window you can see a crewmember quickly bash the window causing it to shatter.
Revealing mistake: It's very clear they blew up a model of the buildings. The grass seen just before the explosions is way too long and is not as long when the characters are running away. Further, the truck and the barrels have disappeared at the explosion shot.
Earl Bassett: You want to hunt graboids, you better know geology. You drive, I'm going to keep my eye on this seismojigger thing.
Trivia: Early in production, the film was reportedly intended to be a theatrical release as the first film became a huge hit on VHS and on cable. However, when original co-stars Kevin Bacon and Reba McEntire were unable to commit for various reasons, the budget was lowered and it became a direct-to-video feature. While this was initially disappointing, it paid off in the long run, as it launched a continuing franchise with a further five sequels and a popular (but short-lived) TV series.
Question: What is the name of the BFG (Big F*****g Gun) the Burt uses? If it is a real weapon were can i find out more information on it?
