Corrected entry: When the critters are in the house and the whole family is upstairs hiding, one of the critters recognises a familiar face and starts to talk to him. When the other creature doesn't respond the critter bites its head off. It's an E.T. doll.
Critters (1986)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Stephen Herek
Starring: Billy Zane, Dee Wallace, M. Emmet Walsh, Billy Green Bush, Scott Grimes
Continuity mistake: After Charlie shoots April in the ass with the slingshot, she immediately turns around to see who did it. Charlie is holding it as he says "Oops" and Brad takes it from him, all the while April is turned completely towards them. Couldn't she see it was Charlie and not Brad?
Critter 1: Status report.
Critter 2: Minor Damage.
Critter 1: What now?
Critter 2: Food.
Trivia: One of the Krites is biting the head off an "E.T." doll. Dee Wallace coincidentally co-starred in both "Critters" and "E.T." as the mother of each film's respective young protagonist.
Question: Why does Brad take the blame for Charlie for shooting April with the slingshot? If he tells dad that Charlie had done that, he would've told him it was an accident.
Answer: Charlie had become a chronic drunk and the town considered him a crackpot with his claims about alien abductions being foretold through his dental work. Even though it was an accident, he could have been declared incompetent and a danger to himself and others; he possibly could have been involuntarily committed. Brad is protecting him.
