TV, but still.



I would have absolutely loved to have gone in there (and perhaps some intrepid explorer already has).


Top Gear has been to multiple abandoned places. They drive 3 cars into Pripiyat/Chernobyl in a pretty recent episode. The episode where they drive three "budget" supercars through Spain takes place almost exclusively in abandoned locales. Including a airport, which is pretty badass.

They filmed the Shanghai steel mill battle at the beginning of Transformers 2 at the old Bethlehem Steel Mill in Bethlehem PA.

A scene in the 1989 Jean-Claude Van Damme film Cyborg was shot in the recently demolished Cape Fear Meat Packing Plant, which closed in 1923.

They also drove a selection of Russian cars around the Greenham Common nuclear missile base near me a few years ago.

I just watched The French Connection and recognized that the ending shoot out takes place in some vacant buildings at Manhattan State Hospital.







Movie is classic 1970s realism cinema, and full of that great 1970s NYC decay.

Here's a pic (bad pic) from the set of the movie "Pixels" coming out in theaters pretty soon. They filmed a lot of it in an old chemical plant in Toronto.

On a side note, I work in the movie industry and it's extremely extremely extremely common to film in abandoned(vacant) places. A lot of film studios are either EX-Abandoned buildings themselves, or situated right near them.

This is from the Terminator Genisys movie set in an old abandoned theater. The crew was very careless, I walked right in like I owned the joint, explored in there for a few hours, it was awesome. And yes, thats a bread truck flipped over on its side.





gotta get in, before its gone forever

Watching the 2003 Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake last night, LOTS of amazing looking abandoned buildings. Anyone familiar with these? There was an old mill, lots of vehicles, a meat plant, and a huge mansion house.

IMDb says Austin, Taylor, and Granger, TX.

The slaughterhouse is in Taylor and is still in business.

The Netherine mental hospital was used for a film, The Asylum I think.


Netherne Asylum was used for the TV show Psychos, which is still available 4OD

Part of The Dark Knight was filmed at Battersea Power Station



And The Jacket was filmed mostly at Bangour Village Hospital.

I remember going to a slaughterhouse in Nashville and getting kicked out by security guards, it was supposedly a country music video.

Recently i watched German movie "Als wir träumten"/"As we were dreaming" (2015). Movie was about a rise and fall of underground techno club in abandoned factory and friendship.

Factory is in Leipzig, it's called
"Leipzig-Luetzschena, ehem. Sternburg-Brauerei"
http://www.leerste...rnburgbrauerei.htm

Movie snapshots:





There were also a part where some lads walked rooftops, drank beer and were trying to hide from guards and afterwards infiltrated into 'active' factory:

There's an abandoned trainyard in Atlanta that was used in the Hunger Games movies (I think as District 12). They still have some signs and whatnot leftover from the movie shooting - and the coolest thing is that there are a bunch of fake trees still standing.

A few scenes from silence of the lambs were filmed in the Spring Grove Hospital Center which is partially abandoned.
