The Crazies

Factual error: Given the destruction from the nuclear blast threw the truck in the air, the rest of the surrounding area would also have experienced similar destruction. However when they are walking away from the truck to another town in a nearby field, there is no visible impact of what was a recent nuclear explosion anywhere to be seen.

Factual error: The movie is supposed to take place in Iowa in the spring according to the mayor who says they can't shut off the water because of farming, but says this while hanging out at his pool... in Iowa... in the spring...? BTW almost all farmers, and people in the country in general, have individual wells for water.

Questions

Question: When Russell becomes infected, he tells the sheriff that he has saved him three times, yet I've seen the movie twice and saw Russell only save him two times (when he unplugs the razor machinery in the morgue and shoots a crazy through the window). Did I miss the third one?

Answer: The third time is by not shooting him right there.

Answer: When Judy was tied up in her baby room after the sheriff stabbed the other mom in the neck.
