Revealing Mistakes
When the large alien crushes the Ferrari that Terry and Denise are in, the alien crushes the passenger side, presumably killing Denise. However, shots of the car just before it's crushed and afterward show that the top of the passenger side is empty.

Continuity
Elaine goes from wearing shorts to pants in the condo right after Walt is taken
Continuity
Walt's mustache vanishes then reappears between shots right before he gets taken
Continuity
The color of Elaine's pants change after Jarrod and Terry leave the apartment. Evidence of this is seen when Terry comes back from Walt's apartment
Continuity

Continuity
Candice's hair changes from being loose when she lies down on the couch to being tied up when she wakes to the sound of the air strike
Continuity
Right after the aliens land, Terry walks toward the window and his Superman tattoo is visible on his right upper arm. However, in a previous scene, when he is walking to the swimming pool bar, the tattoo does not exist
