It's the late '90s, and you can find Jeremy at the Video Hut in Nevada, Iowa, a small town in the center of the state. The job's nice enough, quiet and predictable, until a local schoolteacher comes in to return her copy of Targets an old movie, starring Boris Karloff and registers an odd complaint: There's something on it, she says, but doesn't elaborate. Two days later, another customer returns another tape a new release this time and says the same: There's another movie on this tape.
In Universal Harvester, the once-placid Iowa fields and farmhouses become sinister, imbued with loss and instability and foreboding. As Jeremy and those around him are absorbed into tapes, they become part of another story one that unfolds years into the past and years into the future, part of an impossible search for something someone once lost that they would do anything to regain.
