Deliberate mistake: The explosion of the ship at the end of the film is actually another angle of the explosion of the house from a few seconds earlier. The craft's explosion is much too small for what is shown in the film.

Critters (1986)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Stephen Herek
Starring: Billy Zane, Dee Wallace, M. Emmet Walsh, Billy Green Bush, Scott Grimes
Visible crew/equipment: At the end when Harv leaves, you can see a crew member reflected in his car window. It's not any of the Brown family members, because they are walking to their house. (01:21:20)
Critter 1: Status report.
Critter 2: Minor Damage.
Critter 1: What now?
Critter 2: Food.
Trivia: The name of the town in the film is "Grover's Bend." This is a bit of a reference to the town of "Grover's Mill," which was the town where the aliens supposedly first landed in Orson Welles' infamous "War of the Worlds" broadcast.
Question: Any particular reason why they chose not to have the Krites grow huge in the sequels?

Answer: Maybe it's because they didn't have the budget where they could afford to do such an idea.
