Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When the guy falls off the cliff and splats on the rocks below, if you watch it in slow motion, you can just see an orange bucket appear for a few moments which chucks the blood in the air.

Mistake Continuity: When the guys are in the forest clearing, getting guns from the car boot and changing their clothes, Frank says "Don’t you forget Oz..." and he takes his white jacket off while he is speaking. But in the following shot Frank's jacket is now back on him again, zipped all the way up.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When the camera pans alongside the blue van, which is shaking, because Derek is spasming on the ground you can see some sort of dolly or camera with small wheels being pushed along.

Mistake Continuity: When Barry is getting followed across the beach by the guy, Barry shoots him once and blood falls on to the floor, and also on to Barry's face. He shoots the guy a second time in the head, and the view is from behind as the guys head explodes. If you look at Barry during this shot, you'll see his face is clean of any blood once there, but then it returns in the next shot.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where the guys are getting the weapons from the car, in the forest clearing, the ground surrounding the parked car changes through the scene. At first, it is brown dirt with branches and twigs everywhere. By the end of the scene, when they exclaim "the bastards have landed," the ground is now covered with lush green grass.

Mistake Continuity: The slats in the rear window of Frank‘s car disappear and reappear.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Derek hits the alien with the blue van, splitting him in two, you can see the silver bar which the dummy is mounted on.

Mistake Continuity: The way that Derek's scarf is tied, and the position of it, and the way it hangs etc., changes between various shots throughout the movie. One good example is when he pulls the gun out of the stupid alien's body.

Mistake Continuity: When the chef swipes the knife, he hits another alien in the chest cutting him vertically. The cut is obviously not that long or deep, however in the next shot the alien is slashed right across his chest very deeply.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When the collector, and the guys are standing on the stairs trying to escape, an alien walks down the hallway, and then a shot from over the banister swings to follow him. You can clearly see two red shoes and legs wearing jeans, standing by the banister - obviously the camera operator.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: After Ozzy and Frank put the "Road Closed" sign up, the shot widens to follow the car, and the camera pans upward to reveal the "Kaihoro" road sign. On the floor beside the signpost, as the camera pans up, is an aluminum camera box and a Sennheiser microphone.

Mistake Continuity: During the shootout in the gardens, Frank is standing by a large green plant, which is in the middle of the gardens, with grounds, plants and paths behind it. In the next shot as he runs to the next plant, running behind the previous plant is a small wooden fence, which has suddenly appeared.

Mistake Continuity: When the guys are in the room eavesdropping on what the alien leader has to say, one alien holding a glass bowl walks in on them. In this shot, Frank's wolleen hat is off. Then in the shot when Frank punches the alien, it has reappeared back on his head. Cut back and it has gone again.

Mistake Revealing: When Derek falls and is rolling down the cliff, it is a very clear dummy. It's legs and arms are in a stiff seated position.

Mistake Continuity: In the car on the collectors passenger seat there's a pile of collection bags, and a heavy machete resting atop. However in the shot where he pushes the handbrake down, you can see the passenger seat has nothing on it.

Mistake Continuity: Robert drops a machete on the collectors lap when he has his hand trapped in the window, and the collector tosses it onto the passenger seat. in the following shot where he says "bye-bye," the machete is now repositioned.

Mistake Continuity: When Frank nearly gets chopped by an axe-wielding alien, he grabs a knife lying near the chef (who is wearing a striped shirt) but when he finally gets the knife and swinging it upwards, the chef has now suddenly vanished.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When the blood from the alien is pouring over Derek, some crew members are visible in Derek's glasses.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: There are many long wires clearly trailed across the lawns when Frank and the guys are shooting the aliens, to set off the squibs.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: During the vomit-eating scene the camera pans over the staircase and the cameraman casts a shadow over the banister.
