Production Notes
Another instance of my morbid fascination with cannibalism. First, I invented the chicken-processing community of cannibals for "Our Town" in season two of "The X-Files." Then came this effort, in which an error in the Harsh Realm game code created a group of cannibals who replace their victims with digital copies. Both episodes play on another favorite fear of mine - the paranoia of entering a strange community with a secret. (It should come as no surprise that one of my favorite movies is "Bad Day at Black Rock.")
