Movie Goof (revealing mistake): When Otto chases Archie across the lawn there are multiple shadows indicating at least three spotlights.
The scene where Otto sits up in the background behind Wanda (Jamie Lee Curtis) is reminiscent of a scene in Halloween, in which the character of Michael Myers sat up behind Curtis' character.
