Creepshow 2 (1987)

Goofs

Creepshow 2

Edit

Continuity

In "Old Chief Wood'nhead", Ray and Martha Spruce watch as Ben Whitemoon drives off in his limo and there is still bright daylight overhead. In the next shot of them re-entering the general store, you can see through the door that it is suddenly night outside.
Deke gets sucked through the wooden boards of the raft, planks snapping. At the end, Randy swims away with the raft behind him fully intact.
When Old Chief Wood'nhead grabs Sam's hair, he doesn't have all of it in his hand, yet in the next shot he does.
A display rack which Sam knocks to the floor in "Old Chief Woodn'head" keeps changing position on the floor.
In "The Raft", the angle of the car and its distance from the water changes.

Factual errors

The final frames of "The Raft" segment show the car on the shore, and the radio is still playing. However, after sitting idle for an entire day and an entire night, without the aid of the alternator to charge it, the car battery would have died long before the allotted amount of time had passed.
During the epilogue of 'Old Chief Wood'nhead' The Creep makes a pun on "That was quite a price for young Sam Whitemoon 'toupe'". Toupee is spelled wrong in the page from the comic book.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

In just about every scene where Old Chief Wood'nhead is seen standing in front of the store, you can see slight movements by the actor who played him. However, this is not a mistake as the characters in the film even give subtle acknowledgment that the wooden statue has moved. This is to show that the statue was actually "alive" all along.
When you first see Billy, he's wearing a baseball cap and coat, but then later in the post office, they're both gone.

The animated sequences are not shown continuously, he obviously removed them in the interim.
Sam only calls Fatso by the correct name once; after that, he refers to him as Fat-stuff.

Both Fatso and Fat-stuff are clearly denigrating nicknames, not his actual name, so it's not a mistake for Sam to refer to him by either.
After Deke reaches the raft in the middle of the lake, he lights a joint. However, due to the fact that he has just been swimming, this joint should be wet and therefore unable to be lit.

It is clearly shown that Deke placed his joints (and a small size Bic lighter) in an airtight pharmacy prescription bottle stuffed in his waistband, which would keep the contents dry even when submerged.

Revealing mistakes

In "The Raft" segment, when Deke gets pulled down by the oil slick, his body is forced through a sizable break in the raft planks. His hand could not have gone through the narrow gap between the intact raft planks, as shown when he is finally pulled under and his class ring slips off.
When "Old Chief Woodn'head" applies the war paint to his face, his fingers bend revealing that they are actually foam rubber.
When Fatso is eating chicken from his seat in his trailer, Old Chief Woodn'head shoots three arrows, (one into his chest, one into his left hand, and one into his head). In the head shot, the cap he is wearing is raised, making it clearly visible that the arrow did not go through his head but above it, exposing the bloody makeup effect.
When Deke gets dragged through the hole in the raft with his leg sticking upwards, the prop leg is obvious as someone bending in half at the waist would have their foot above their head.
After all of the bullies are gone, you don't see their bicycles.

Miscellaneous

When Deke gets out of the water to climb onto the raft, the container of of marijuana he tied to his bathing suit is missing and nowhere to be seen until a few minutes later when it is in his hand.

Audio/visual unsynchronised

When Sam and his pals speed away from the store, you can hear tires squealing even though they're driving on dirt.

Crew or equipment visible

When Annie Lansing is looking out of the back of her car to see if the hitchhiker is still running behind her, he has disappeared but instead you can see a crewmember through the upper left corner of the car window.
When the oil slick monster just misses Laverne, you can see a crew member under the raft (probably operating the mechanical special effect)
