<P> After the episode aired, Tucker Smallwood recalled that the filming was an unpleasant experience . He entered production of the episode with little knowledge of the nature of The X-Files, and was surprised when he received the screenplay . During his first day on set, he asked other cast members if the series was always so violent . An unidentified crew member said, "this is awful even for us", and commented that it was probably the most gruesome episode of the series run . During the sheriff's death scene Smallwood insisted on performing his own stunts, until he hit his head attempting a dive . Another uncomfortable moment for the actor involved lying face down in a pool of fake blood for more than 90 minutes . </P> <P> The episode incorporates the song "Wonderful! Wonderful!" by musician Johnny Mathis . Having read the screenplay Mathis refused to allow his version to be used, owing to the episode's graphic content, and a cover version had to be created . Producer David Nutter, who had a background as a singer, intended to record the vocals but at the last minute another singer, who sounded more like Mathis, was used . Manners explained that he wanted to use the song because "certain songs have a creepy, icky quality that none of us have really openly acknowledged". </P> <P> "Home" was first submitted to the censors featuring audio of the baby screaming while being buried alive . Ten Thirteen Productions was asked by Fox executives to alter the audio so that the baby would sound sick; they noted that the audio change was needed to show the child was diseased and that the Peacocks were not simply killing an innocent child . Manners called the shot, shown from the child's perspective, of the baby's burial as "the most awful shot of my career". He said that he approached filming as seriously as he could because he felt the script was a classic . When production was finished, he said that he loved the episode and called it one of his favorites . Duchovny agreed with Manners, saying, "I really like that one . Although it didn't scare me ." He explained that it "touched" him with its themes concerning the desire to "live and to propagate ." </P> <P>--Writer Sarah Stegall on the Peacock family's depiction . </P>
