Other mistake: When the zombies come out of the river and start marching, look closely. The first zombies to come out wear wet clothes, but the ones in the back are dry.

Riley and the others arrive in Dead Reckoning only to see zombies feasting on people. He fires missiles and destroy them, thinking he has come too late, but other survivors appear. They thank Riley and go their seperate ways.Riley sees the main zombie and says that it's just looking for somewhere to go, much like himself. They then leave in Dead Reckoning to find their own place, firing fireworks into the air as they go.

Kaufman: In a world where the dead are returning to life, the word "trouble" loses much of its meaning.
Trivia: Tom Savini plays the "machete zombie." This is a callback to the original Dawn of the Dead (1978) where he played the living version of that character- a motorcycle riding hillbilly. He also did special makeup effects on Dawn and Day of the Dead (1985).
Question: At the end, when Riley meets the 'freedom fighters', why aren't they bothered by the zombies who are still walking around, or the defences being completely useless, as the zombies tore the defences down or went through the river?

Answer: Riley feels that they have just the right to be there as the living do. Besides, those zombies survived all the missles and are coming to the city while Riley and the gang are leaving. So why waste the ammunition?
