This movie:
Fear No Evil (1981)
was filmed out and around where I lived shortly after I moved there. The movie director was a Webster, NY resident (where I live)
Scenes were filmed at Spry High School where I went for one year in the early 80's
Other scenes were filmed at Charlotte Beach, where I sometimes go to.Leave a comment:

In my original home town only one that I know of. Stanley and Iris. I know this because I protested Jane Fonda coming to our town. I was home on leave from the Air Force at the time. Besides that I really don't think my town is known for much.Leave a comment:

What Movies were filmed in your hometown?
We know movies which were filmed in LA, NY, Chicago, and other major metro areas. What films have been made in the areas of members who do not live in the major movie picture norm setting?
The three that come to mind for me here in Baton Rouge are:
The Toy
Everybody's All-American
The Deadly Tower (Kurt Russell, about the U of Texas shootings)
I believe part of Easy Rider was filmed in this area, but I think it was about an hour north.
There are some others, but the setting was Baton Rouge, Kingfish, Dead Man Walking, Blaze...Last edited by theantiquetiger; Mar 22, '08, 7:27 PM.Tags: None
