Trivia
According to this film's American executive producer Stephen W. Sharmat, this American-Australian co-production filmed in Australia actually utilized only six American personnel compared to one hundred and twenty Australian cast and crew. See more »Goofs
Continuity: When the camper smashes into the bottom of the ravine, it impacts on its side and the chassis is cleaved in two. In the next (close up) shot, where the boy has descended the cliff to sit by the rear bumper, the vehicle is simply pancaked upside down with an intact chassis. See more »Quotes
