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)
Critters (1986)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Stephen Herek
Starring: Billy Zane, Dee Wallace, M. Emmet Walsh, Billy Green Bush, Scott Grimes
Revealing mistake: After the bounty hunter, who changes three times throughout the movie, changes into the Reverend, he is in front of someone else who is a stand-in for the real Reverend but is obviously not.
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.

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.
