  When I first started this site, it was primarily for the purpose of having a place to document all the movie locations I've visited, kind of like a scrapbook. Somewhere along the line it also turned into a way to show others that had the same fascination I did, regarding wanting to know where some of their favorite movies were filmed, where they were and how to find them. Now, over a thousand locations later and I enjoy it as much as ever. This site is for anyone who may wish to have some of the same experiences I have.

    Love anything from our childhood (best ever growing up in the 80s and 90s!!). This is very well done and look forward to you adding more in the future! Like Goonies, E.T. Roxanne,

      Thank you JediMom Tricks, I definitely plan on adding more! I actually visited The Goonies locations a few years back but the pics turned out so poorly I didn't even bother adding them to the site. Looking forward to going back though.

    Paul - your website is amazing, such a gem! I can spend hours looking through these. Can't wait for some more iconic movies like Goonies. Do you go to all of these places yourself or are people contributing to you? All in all, this website/blog is gold.

    It would be nice to be able to search by location in addition to by movie, just a suggestion.

    And one day I will visit the Evil Dead site!

      Thanks a lot Matt, I appreciate the kind words. I personally visit all of the locations but anyone who may want to send a pic of theirs for me to post are more than welcomed. Also, I appreciate the feedback.

      Hope you enjoy the Evil Dead locations as much as I did!

    Paul, you need to figure out where Tourist Trap was filmed. I've often wondered where the gas station and waterfall is located.

      Thanks Christopher! Last summer I actually visited the location of the church as well as the old abandoned building at the end (neither of which is there anymore). Private message me if you're interested in seeing the pics.

    Hi Paul - Nigel here from the UK - can you watch the movie "The Car" and document its related movie locations? If you're interested I live close to Guildford which featured locations in The Omen II (the guildford cathedral) - I can send before/after shots for your site?

      Thank you very much, Nigel. I finally got around to watching The Car and thought it featured some pretty neat and scenic filming locations. A location article for that film would certainly be a possibility.

    Hi Paul, are you still adding new stuff? I live in L.A. and frequent many old filming locations if you'd like any pics.

      Thanks Nolan, but all the "now" pics I post on my site are one's that I've personally taken (unless noted otherwise). I just think visiting the locations myself and actually being where the movie magic happened is the funnest part of the experience. Appreciate the offer though ;)

    I had a chance to watch "Pat Sematary Filming Locations" and "The Lost Boys(Grandpa's House)" on your YouTube Channel. They're awesome. Hope more coming soon.

    Great site! I'm heading to the Salem's Lot locations in a few months. Any chance you could put a map of some kind up so that if I were traveling to a certain location or state, I could instantly check to see if anything on your site was filmed around the area? Just a thought. Keep of the great work!

    Amazing website my man, I was brought to this page while researching downtown Fort Myers (near where I live) where the annual Zombicon was held for many years. Can't believe I got to sit in front of a Q&A With Tom Savini! Anyway, i'm not affiliated with the angry video game nerd but he did a great documentary of Rocky called Rocky jumped a park bench, where he walks through parts of downtown Philly for movie shots.

    also side note, my mom had her third wedding ceremony where a scene from My Girl was filmed in downtown Bartow Florida. =) Cheers!

    Awesome site, would love to be able to visit some of those movie locations, but I'm from the Netherlands, so it's pretty difficult for me to visit them all, keep up the good work with the site, this way I can still see some of those locations.

      Thank you e6r6i6c. I agree, it sucks being so far away from a lot of them. I live in Texas and there are a lot of locations in the UK I'd like to visit sometime.

    Would you perhaps have Wargames (1984), Home Alone (1990), National Lampoons Vacation (1983), Sneakers (1992) or Rollercoaster (1977)? A few of my favorite films! Great site, thanks.
