A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) Updated location!

Check out the all new Nightmare on Elm Street page on Set-Jetter.com!

For previous blogposts about Nightmare on Elm Street click here, here, and here.  So yeah, I do love this movie.  Although many of the film's locations have been pretty well publicized by now, what I had not seen was the street where Nancy walks to school and Rod is arrested.   After careful scrutiny of my blu-ray copy of the movie, which included trying to decipher street signs in window reflections, I finally found it in Venice.

Also, I never go to LA without stopping by 1428 Elm Street....

NEW LOCATION FOUND:  I have been desperately searching for Alice and Rick's house but couldn't track it down.   While I had the house number, I searched Burbank via Google Map but always came up with nothing.  However, there is about a four block area not covered by Google  yet, so while I had some extra time this morning, I venture down there streets and there it was!    The pictures, of course, recreate Kristen's drive up to the house.  Looks virtually the same all these years later.....

I'm a big fan of the Elm Street series, but most of my location visits focused on the original film.   On this latest trip, I decided to focus on the fourth entry of the series.  (Check out my previous blog to see some of the cast pictures.)

First up is the school.   A careful look shows that this is the original Rydell High, Venice High School.

Next up, Kristen's house which I found in the Hollywood area.

The final scene takes place by a fountain right in the heart of Hollywood.

And my favorite find, The Crave Inn.  This cafe is in the Culver City area, special thanks to Andras Jones for helping me track this one down!
