Revealing mistake: As Vicky and Burt are driving down a dirty lane, through a row of corn, you can see fresh tire tracks in the mud from a previous take. (00:34:35)
Revealing mistake: When Vicky throws the lamp at the children, there's no power cord attached to it.
Revealing mistake: When Burt hits one of the children, the skid marks are in front of the car, when they should be behind it.
Visible crew/equipment: When the two lead characters pull up to a stop in the car, the shot is dead-on from the driver's side, and you can clearly see the entire camera crew reflected in the side of the car. (00:30:10)
Trivia: In the first scene of Burt and Vicky in the car there is a copy of Stephen King's 'Night Shift' on the dashboard of the passenger side. A little homage to King in that the short story 'Children of the Corn' is in this book.
