The state actually has a (very small) list of filming locations, on their tourism website.  --  Zanimum (talk) 12:06, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: My main issues is that these sections fail WP:OR, they are original research. It may be obvious to you and me, but to people who aren't familiar with these films you are discussing, it's not "obvious". Even worse is that this supposed similarities suggest that those films took the idea from The Town That Dreaded Sundown, which there is no proof of. That's why I think this section needs to be removed or cited. Andrzejbanas (talk) 14:56, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

text: It stands because it meets criteria per [Manual of Style - Popular Culture]
Films speak for themselves and do not need to be "cited". It is not original research. The similarities do not suggest anything (especially the idea that anything was "stolen" or "borrowed" from them), it simply points out the similarities. There is nothing in the sentence that suggests otherwise, therefore nothing to prove.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by JeremeK (talk • contribs) 03:39, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Do not remove tags that aren't settled yet. Also, it actually fails Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Film#Popular_culture, because the statement "They should be supported by third party sources that place the reference into context." is not as followed.

replies: text:  "In Popular Culture" sections must be properly cited.  Without citations, it is original research to draw parallels between different texts.  We also need a secondary source to verify that the popular in culture in question is actually due.  Without this, it's just trivia that can be removed by any editor.

replies: text: I concur with NinjaRobotPirate. A connection or reference noted by a secondary source indicates that it is noteworthy for inclusion. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 14:37, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: The Town That Dreaded Sundown →  – According to pageviews, the article is viewed as much as the 2014 remake. To put this another way, even as a classic, I'm not confident that the film's historical significance supersedes its popularity. The base title should be that of a dabpage.
