THE RAGE: CARRIE 2 (1999)
The Rage: Carrie 2 was released on March 12, 1999. Carrie’s half-sister Rachel is also a high school outcast, and sure enough, she’s telekinetic too. And yes, the popular kids do something horrible to her and she does something equally horrible (and cool) in return. I’ve always enjoyed this movie, and so when I heard…… Continue reading THE RAGE: CARRIE 2 (1999)
THE EVIL DEAD (1981)
I was honestly so excited and scared visiting this location that I didn’t do a great job of matching the locations up. The cabin has been gone since a few years after filming, and the land is privately owned and littered with No Trespassing signs. Nevertheless, horror fans have been venturing there for years so…… Continue reading THE EVIL DEAD (1981)
PET SEMATARY II (1992)
Once again, a sequel comes to Georgia for filming instead of the original locations. I actually thought they did a good job of making it seem like the same locations even though the original was filmed in Maine. In fact, I’m not even sure I knew or realized it was Georgia the first time I…… Continue reading PET SEMATARY II (1992)

SLEEPAWAY CAMP III: TEENAGE WASTELAND (1989)
Like Sleepaway Camp 2, Part 3 relocated from Georgia to New York for filming, and it was actually filmed back-to-back with Part 2 at the very same camp. I recruited one of my friends to accompany me to this rural spot, and we called the number on the For Sale sign and got permission to…… Continue reading SLEEPAWAY CAMP III: TEENAGE WASTELAND (1989)
SLEEPAWAY CAMP II: UNHAPPY CAMPERS (1988)
While the first ‘Sleepaway Camp’ filmed in New York, 2 and 3 both came to Georgia for filming. I was super excited and then immediately disappointed when I found this out, because it also said that the camp was torn down shortly after filming. After a little more research, I figured out that that wasn’t…… Continue reading SLEEPAWAY CAMP II: UNHAPPY CAMPERS (1988)
CABIN FEVER (2002)
In 2019, I took my first trip specifically to visit filming locations. I settled on North Carolina, as it was a reasonable drive and I could do some good locations I’d been dying to see: I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Conjuring, and Cabin Fever! I contacted Camp Raven Knob, the scout camp…… Continue reading CABIN FEVER (2002)
