Lou Glutz Motors from “Vacation”
‘ Fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, recently embarked upon a mission to try to track down some of the unknown locations from one of his favorite movies, the 1983 classic Vacation. He had quite a bit of success, too, managing to pinpoint two elusive spots, one of which was the…

Villa d’Este – The “Under the Yum Yum Tree” Apartment Building
‘ Thank you to all of my fellow stalkers for putting up with my two recent – and much-needed – blogging hiatuses. It felt so good to relax and recharge and I will now be back with a vengeance. And now, on with the post! A couple of months ago, after stalking Romanesque Villa, my…

The Grill on Main from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”
‘ Last month, while watching the Season 2 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills titled “Game Night Gone Wild”, I just about fell over when sisters Kim and Kyle Richards (neither of whom I can actually stand) walked into The Grill on Main – a La-Quinta-area eatery that I had been to just…

Contra Dam from “GoldenEye”
‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. the past couple of days. My dad had surgery last Wednesday and I spent the better portion of the remainder of the week in the hospital with him. He is having a follow-up surgery this upcoming Wednesday, as well, so this week will also probably be light on posts. …

California Market Center from “Cruel Intentions”

Santa Fe Depot from “The Trouble with Angels”
‘ It is no secret that I love abandoned places, especially during this time of year. (What I wouldn’t give to be able to see this in person!) Recently I stalked Monrovia’s former Santa Fe Railroad Depot and it had my heart going pitter-patter. The now defunct train station is also a filming location and,…

The Canfield-Moreno Estate from “Scream 3”
‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for what seems like ages now is the Canfield-Moreno Estate – an absolutely humongous Italianate-style villa that was featured extensively in the 2000 thriller Scream 3. I first found out about the locale thanks to Mike, from MovieShotsLA, who had stalked it a few years back…

Christina Aguilera’s “Extra” Taping at The Grove
‘ Way back on Friday, June 3rd, Mikey, from the Mike the Fanboy website, called me up to inform me that Christina Aguilera would be appearing live that afternoon at The Grove shopping center in Los Angeles to tape a segment for the television series Extra. And even though I have never really been a…

Inez’s House from “Chef”
‘ My favorite movie of 2014 was, hands down, The Other Woman. Running a close second was Chef, which I am guessing many of you have not heard of. Sadly, it was a bit of a sleeper. Take my word for it, though, the flick is fabulous. As are its locations! But more on that…
