Continuity mistake: At the end, when Taggart gets off the truck after he fired into the Creeper's head, the spear he is holding changes from pointing up to pointing down. (01:29:50)
Continuity mistake: When Bucky jumps on the hood of the bus to get back in, the Creeper flies from in front of the moon towards the bus causing all the kids to run away. Bucky can still be seen staying put on the hood when they run - however in the next shot of all the kids running you see him at the front of the pack which would have not been possible given that he didn't run right away.
Continuity mistake: Just after the man says 'he looks dead to me' (he means the Creeper) he walks past the girl who holds the black guy sitting/laying on the ground. The black guy is buried deep in her arms and he holds his right arm half over his face and on her left elbow. His fellow 'pupils' walk to him. Next shot: his fellow pupils walk to him, but now his right arm is lower, exposing his face and his right hand is now at his chin instead of on her left elbow.
Continuity mistake: When Izzy finds the javelins on the bus, Bucky is the only person at the front of the bus (because he is trying to call on the radio). In the next shot Scotty appears out of nowhere at the front of the bus and yells, "Sticks. You want to hang around here so that you can poke at this thing with STICKS?" with Bucky standing right next to him.
Continuity mistake: The Creeper removes Dante's top clothes after decapitating him, but in several shots of the bus overviews from the outside, the clothes are not seen anywhere.
Continuity mistake: When Betty and Coach Hanna are going through the "lock-box", she pulls out the flare gun and the Coach's arms go from being pulled in to his chest in one shot and reached out for the gun in the next.
Continuity mistake: When Farmer Taggert and his older son are chasing the Creeper as he's dragging away the younger boy, the sun is at their backs. As they watch the Creeper fly away with the son a minute later, the sun is now in front of them, having moved 180 degrees.
Continuity mistake: When Minxie sees the Creeper running on the field and throws the shuriken at the bus tire it's still daytime, but when the shuriken actually hits the bus tire it's all of a sudden nighttime.
Continuity mistake: When Rhonda grabs a javelin and spears the Creeper through the head to save Bucky, he loosens his grip and they all back away. The javelin is left sticking out of the hole, jerking around for a bit, and then is suddenly lifted out of the roof. In the next shot of the Creeper on top of the bus the javelin is still in the hole, and then he lifts it out slowly.
Continuity mistake: Through most of the movie when the Creeper smiles, you can see his yellow teeth. But at the end when he is attacking Double D he has white teeth.
Answer: Eating human flesh helps the Creeper regenerate his whole body, no matter which part he ate.
