    The “Lights Out” House

    ‘ “Lights Out Cast Accidentally Cursed the House Where they Filmed.”  So blared a headline from an Entertainment Weekly article about the 2016 horror film.  As you can imagine, the words had me drooling.  I first learned about the movie back in January from fellow stalker “sparklesnow” who left a comment on one of my…

  • The “Kill Bill” Church

    The “Kill Bill” Church

    ‘ One location that my dad and I visited while stalking in the Lancaster and Palmdale areas last week was the Sanctuary Adventist Church which was used prominently in the 2003 and 2004 Quentin Tarantino movies Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Kill Bill: Volume 2.  And although I have never actually seen either of the…

  • CSI: Pasadena

    CSI: Pasadena

    ‘ My dad is not a big fan of Hollywood. And by Hollywood I mean the industry, not the town. He can’”‘”‘t stand all of the overindulged, self-absorbed actors, even though his own daughter is one (minus the overindulged, self-absorbed part, of course). 🙂 He just barely tolerates my stalking and often asks me why…

    Runyon Canyon Park from “The Hills”

    ‘ A few years ago, after my good friend Nat happened to spot Runyon Canyon Park pop up in an episode of fave reality series The Hills, she sent me an email asking if I had ever stalked the place.  And while I had long known that the locale was not only a big-time celebrity…

    Marilyn Monroe’s Childhood Orphanage

    ‘ It’s shaping up to be Marilyn Monroe week here at iamnotastalker, because here I am yet again blogging about yet another location relating to the late actress.  Thanks to the “Movie Star Homes and Notorious Crime Scenes” map that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, purchased for me while the two of us were out and about…

  • Copley’s on Palm Canyon – Cary Grant’s Former Guesthouse

    Copley’s on Palm Canyon – Cary Grant’s Former Guesthouse

    ‘ One location that I had been chomping at the bit to stalk for what seemed like ages was Copley’s on Palm Canyon – a restaurant created out of what is said to be Cary Grant’s former Palm Springs guest house.  Because the eatery does not open until 6 p.m. each night, though (I am…

  • The “Clueless” Guide to Occidental College

    The “Clueless” Guide to Occidental College

    ‘ While it is well-known among location aficionados that Occidental College masked as Bronson Alcott High School in Clueless, an in-depth guide to the exact areas of the campus that appeared in the flick has never been published.  So, with some help from Mike, from MovieShotsLA, Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, and…

    New York, New Look!

    ‘ Last year, for my mom’”‘”‘s birthday, my dad, boyfriend, grandma, and I all chipped in , the celebrity hair stylist from TLC reality show . My mom absolutely loves Nick, so her haircut was the present to end all presents. And, as my dad likes to say, we opened up a whole can of…

  • Sherman Way Adult Books from “Behind the Candelabra”

    Sherman Way Adult Books from “Behind the Candelabra”

    ‘ Today’s location is a bit of a risqué one, so brace yourselves, my fellow stalkers!  Back in May, after Behind the Candelabra first premiered, I received an email from my buddy E.J., of The Movieland Directory website, listing a few of the locales that he had tracked down from the HBO biopic.  He ended…

  • Dwight’s Bar from “Burlesque”

    Dwight’s Bar from “Burlesque”

    ‘ One Burlesque filming location that I had been trying to track down for what seems like forever now was Dwight’s Bar, which was featured in the movie’s opening scene as the supposed small-town, Iowa-area watering hole where Ali (aka Christina Aguilera) worked.  Even though the bar only appeared in one very brief, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it establishing…
