anyone remembers that movie? the ghost thing with nicole kidman. well when that film came out, i really enjoyed it and i just loved the setting. i used to have a thing for creepy old mansions (have visited a fair share here in england) so i jumped at the opportunity to see the house for real. my sister lives in the area (north of spain) and told me one of her friends knows where that building is. well it turned out to be further away than i thought and i just couldn't find that damn place, so i was kinda driving around blindly through the mountains ::). i did eventually find it though so here are a few pics. oh and if you are wondering why i'm boring you with this random pics of a building, well i wanted to post something in this forum too for a change ;)




this view was used in the opening sequence of the film

a bit further down the side

this is the actual front of the property, which never got shown in the movie

hope you liked them :)

ps: if you were wondering if i was walking around in the garden i'll have to say no, i just zoomed in. they had some scary killer dogs running around which didn't exactly say welcome ;)

Nice photos Yurei. I haven't seen the film but like these old buildings with character.

thanks guys :)

silver, i remember that house. too bad  they stole your camera. i would have loved to see more pics.
i hope i can make it down to the states soon so i can visit more such places too :)

The Others is absolutely one of my all-time favorite movies.  VERY clever...It really throws you for a loop, especially if you are watching it without any idea what it's about...haha.  When I saw it in the theatre, I had no idea what I was seeing...never saw a preview or anything.  SO yeah I was like wtf? for most of the movie, and then I went, WHOAAA..............

same here. it was incredible the first time in the cinema :o. i still enjoy watching it from time to time, i also think kidman did an excellent job. i never took her serious as an actress before this movie

Interesting how neglected the building looks....I also enjoy visiting location shoots!  For a while I was thinking about trying to put together a list, but I gave up when I wasn't finding much other than the locations I'd been to myself!  (And they keep cancelling shows on me.)

Well I don't know what's up with the pic...First, I thought it was because I forgot to check the file size and it was over 100K.  I reduced the size, but can't seem to fit it back in my post...

Maybe it's because the entire thread exceeds 500k?

Lets try one more time...

Nope...

I saw the image when you first posted it. Doesn't seem to be there now. If you're sure it's within the forum limit try uploading it again.

Very intesting Yurei... :)
I like the shots.

Has anyone ever seen the movie 'Meet the Applegates'? It was filmed three blocks from where I used to live in Neenah Wisconsin. I was only one, but my parents said we went by it while they were filming. The re painted the house and everything for the movie. And after they were done, a normal family lived in it again. :)
