Goofs

After Burt hits the runaway with his car, the boy is on his stomach. Burt rolls him onto his back but in subsequent shots he is on his stomach again.

When Vicky gets carried away from the bedroom, the sandal on her left foot falls off. Later in the cornfields as she gets raised on the large crucifix, the sandal has appeared back on her foot.

When Burt and Vicky are driving around and end up at the gas station, the sun is near sunset. But a few scenes later on, the sun is high like it's late morning, even though it takes place later on in the same day.

As they're driving trying to find a town, the corn fields change for mid-summer green to October straw color ready to harvest.

When Malachai and some others are trying to take Vicky from a bedroom, someone hacks a bit of the door out with an axe, but in the next shot that part is suddenly back intact.

Burt and Vicky are traveling through Nebraska, and Vicky pulls out a typical Kansas-Nebraska map. Kansas on one side, and Nebraska on the other. The front shot clearly shows that she is looking at the wrong side of the map. Nebraska is facing the camera.

The next shot is from the side, showing that they are looking at the Kansas side of the map, while discussing both real and imaginary Nebraska locations.

Incidentally, the real Nebraska locations of Grand Island and Hemingford are not near Kansas, or each other for that matter.

Just after Burt's car hits the boy, it skids to a halt, but the tire marks are in front of the car.

The electricity is off in Gatlin, but during the dusk chase scenes through the center of town, we can see the bank's ATM glowing reassuringly.

Burt is very clearly pulling his punches and not touching Malachi in the fight.

As Vicky and Burt are driving down a dirty lane, through a row of corn, you can see fresh tire tracks in the mud from a previous take.

Just before Vicky is dragged off, she throws a lamp at the approaching children. The lamp clearly has no cord.

The blue lamp Vicky picks up and throws at Malachai is hollow and has no cord.

Even though it isn't shown to be doing anything (and so isn't a revealing mistake), the closeup of a pitchfork shows it to clearly be a prop with retractable prongs.

When Sarah's mother is on the phone with her husband, she says, "I'm worried Dave, the fever's gone from 101 to 104," yet her mouth doesn't move.

When Joseph trips and falls to the ground while running through the cornfield, a point-of-view shot of the fall reveals a crew member holding wires and watching the camera.

When Burt is at the crossroads in the car and he stops and complains about having just passed a sign to Gatlin, the director and crew are reflected in the side of the car.

When the gas station attendant is talking out loud to himself after giving directions to the people, there is a shot of him through a window, in the window you can see a crew member.

In the beginning of the film, the children kill the adults. This is followed by the opening credits. When the credits end, we are introduced to Burt and Vicki at their motel and told it's three years later. When Burt and Vicki arrive in Gatlin and encounter the children, none of them seem to have aged four years.

Kids that reach the age of nineteen are sacrificed so since there are no new members being recruited this cult has a quickly approaching expiration date.

After the gas attendant checks his garage after hearing a noise, as he walks back to his red truck, you can see a boom microphone rise and then lower in the windshield.

When Diehl is walking in front of his red truck, after he discovers the bandanna on his hood, a boom mic is reflected in the truck's wind shield.

When Burt shakes the kids off in the church you can see the shadow of the boom mic on the wall.
