Best Movies with Houston as the location?

Arlington Road was a good one.

I think some parts of Twins was filmed in Houston too

 

It was just mentioned!

 

I was going to say Arlington Road. I know parts were filmed in Magnolia, which is where I grew up.

 

Didn't Another Brother get all blowed up in that?

 

Part of Tin Cup was filmed at one of the area golf courses.

 

I grew up in the Friendswood area and I know a lot of it was filmed in a neighborhood off telephone road in Pearland. I had a good friend that lived over there and they had huge tents up blocking off parts of the neighborhood while filming it.

 

It was filmed in 1999.

 

Clutch City 1993-1994 NBA Champions Collector's Edition

 

Kingwood Country Club. My in-laws were extras and part of the gallery. You can see them clear as day for about 4 seconds during the final hole.

The Chase, starring Charlie Sheen

 

Lol that movie was so bad...

 

Friday Night Lights as well. Had a good friend that was an extra in a few scenes.

 

Surprised Crazy Heart hasn't been mentioned.

 

Definitely not shot here (except for some exterior establishing shots), but it's set here.

 

He did!

 

Only Clutchfan to be murdered in a terrorist attack onscreen. Not sure if we've ever lost one in a real attack though.

 

Independence Day? Anyone? Lolz

 

I think I remember us losing one in the Bowling Green Massacre.

RIP A-Train

 

There was a movie I saw a long time ago that ended in a police chase on the Houston freeways. The suspect had a boy for a hostage and when the police finally caught him, he offed himself with a gun. Anybody know what movie that was?

 

I got it, the movie was called Cohen & Tate.

 

My HS girlfriend was an extra in I married a Vampire, so that was filmed here.
