The year the movie was set in?
The trivia section here on IMDB claims that it was set in 1993, because that was the last year (at the time the film was released) that a full moon fell on the 30th of October. Was this done intentionally by Karen Walton or someone else or was it just not thought through?
Is there any hard evidence to support that it is indeed set in this year? And on a lighter note, are there any chronological errors that would put the film at a later year?
I mean, it's not too far fetched, because the first script was written back in the mid 90s. I read someone say it was from 1993, but the date on the original script says 1996 (The current or later one was 1998).

Just like you guys wanted I was able to get the original script for you which was written in 1993
But Walton was only contacted by Fawcett in 1995. Unless it was something she had been working on before.
In January 1995, Fawcett "knew that he wanted to make a metamorphosis movie and a horror film... He talked to screenwriter Karen Walton... Fawcett convinced Walton this film would re-interpret the genre.
