Jackson County is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia article of 1 production, in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
5 productions were filmed at 4 places inside Jackson County rather than at Jackson County itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.
“Although almost a third of the film is set in rural Illinois, a large portion of the principal filming was actually shot in Jackson County, North Carolina, in the Great Smoky Mountains.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Jackson County as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Named here by Jackson County’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Jackson County, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
