He shoots the guy a second time in the head, and the view is from behind as the guys head explodes.

Continuity mistake: In the start of the film you see "the boys" driving in their car talking on a C.B. to another man in the group they are meeting.

Continuity mistake: As he rolls down the cliff, one of Derek's shoe fall off, but they're both back on when we see him land on the rock. (00:23:20)
Continuity mistake: When we see Derek land on the rock after taking the fall down the cliff, behind the rock he landed on there is grassy hills and then some big rocks. Later when they say birds were the only thing he can relate to, it shows a shot of Derek covered in gulls, but now the huge rocks in the background scenery have gone, and in addition, the position of his legs have changed too.

Continuity mistake: In the car on the collectors passenger seat there's a pile of collection bags, and a heavy machete resting atop. However in the shot where he pushes the handbrake down, you can see the passenger seat has nothing on it. (00:29:30 - 00:30:15)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where the guys are getting the weapons from the car, in the forest clearing, the ground surrounding the parked car changes through the scene. At first, it is brown dirt with branches and twigs everywhere. By the end of the scene, when they exclaim "the bastards have landed," the ground is now covered with lush green grass.
