* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Barely averted. After we last see Neville still in the containment building, we don't see him again until the end of the film when he is being treated for radiation poisoning and being led to an ambulance. Corinne thanks him, and he presumably doesn't have much time left.

Copying over from Dirty Kid and naming characters, with slight grammar adjustments.

Added DiffLines:

* DirtyKid: Campbell. Stacy, when babysitting Campbell, asks if he wants to do anything, as they are stuck in the house due to the weather. Campbell gets out the game Twister, which Stacy appears to accept as innocent fun, but it's obvious that Campbell is enjoying the physical contact the game involves.

* FakeAmerican: John Sumner, the actor who portrayed Neville, is actually a Brit.
** A lot of the extras and smaller roles are also FakeAmerican as some of the film was shot in New Zealand and utilized local actors.



* HeyItsThatGuy: [[SavedByTheBell Zack Morris]] moved to Tennessee and became a local cop. WMG says that's why we never see Zack's mom on SavedByTheBell - she got sucked up by a tornado.
