Portions of the film were shot in Centralia, Pennsylvania, a town evacuated after an underground anthracite fire broke out in the early 1960s. The fire is said to be set to burn for 1,000 years. Most of the town has been leveled, except for three houses and a county office building.
Unused footage from the film 'Eroded' is included in portions of the film. This footage was shot by DP Al Laus.
