Visible crew/equipment: In the bathroom, when Mike's ex-girlfriend is getting undressed to take a shower a long-necked clown jumps from out of the toilet. Anyone, and I mean anyone, can clearly see the arm of a white guy sticking out of the bottom of the clown's neck controlling the puppet.
Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988)
Directed by: Stephen Chiodo
Starring: John Vernon, Grant Cramer, John Allen Nelson, Suzanne Snyder
Continuity mistake: There's a scene at the beginning with an old man and a dog sitting on the porch. Not only does the dog go from looking right to left from shot to shot, but in one shot he actually gets up and almost completely leaves the frame, and in the next shot he's laying down again.
Plot hole: When Debbie and Mike are in the pink cocoon room of the circus tent Mike yells, 'Joe Lombardo.' However, Joe Lombardo doesn't die until at least 4 scenes later in the movie, when a Killer Klown edges him off the road and over a cliff.
Trivia: The role of Klownzilla the King Klown was played by Charles Chiodo, who helped write the story.
Officer Curtis Mooney: Police station, Mooney here...What? Oh, they took your wife away in a balloon? Well you don't need the police pal, you need a psychiatrist!
Farmer Gene Green: What in the blue blazes is the circus doing here in these parts?
Farmer Gene Green: Where's the dang ticket booth?
Question: At the end of the movie when Dave exits the truck, he holds Debbie from behind and in a romantic way sniffed her hair. Not only did Debbie lean back into him and smile, but Mike looked at them and didn't seem bothered. Is there an interview anywhere where the crew explains why Debbie and Dave seemed like they got back together out of nowhere? Are we supposed to forget the movie started off with Mike and Debbie as a couple?

Answer: I checked the Internet and read up on the Killer Klowns production and there is no mention of Michael J. Fox being in the movie. I do not know who the actor in the scene is, and while it's possible that it was Fox, it does not really resemble him, in my opinion.
