    Arlington Road was a good one.

    I think some parts of Twins was filmed in Houston too

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

    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.

    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.

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

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

    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?
