Ever wonder where some of your favorite movies where filmed? I'm not talking general vicinities; I mean the exact address of Sam Witwicky's house in Transformers. (It's on 2187 W 24th St. in the West Adams District southwest of downtown L.A., FYI.) As luck would have it, all of the films below were filmed in the SoCal area, so if you're a movie maven looking to plan a roadtrip, look no further. Or if you're just creepy and want to touch the same street curb that Shia LeBeouf may have graced, then by all means.
(Note: Before you go traipsing through vacant laundromats or showing up on strangers' doorsteps, remember that A) Some of these movies were filmed in high-crime areas and B) Most of the homeowners that occupy the houses listed below probably don't care how big a Michael J. Fox fan you are, so don't go knocking on their door asking for a flux capacitor.)

The infamous liquor store scene where Fogell flashes his fake McLovin' I.D., gets punched by a robber, and meets the two wacky cops was filmed at the 7 Days Food Store which is in a strip mall at 1700 Victory Blvd in Glendale.
All of the scenes at the guys' high school were filmed at El Segundo High School at 640 Main St. in El Segundo.
The final scene where Seth and Evan meet up with their new girlfriends takes place at the Fox Hills Mall in Culver City, which is located in between two celebrity cemeteries (Holy Cross and Hillside) and is also the same mall where Gary Coleman got in to a fight with a customer when he worked as a security guard there.
