Good locale for a zombie or post apocalyptic flick

Nah, it's not really that bad over by the house anymore - George lives about 20 minutes away. He drove me over to see it when we first started dating, and he didn't tell me where we were going, because he knew I'd love it. So we pull up in front, and he's all, "Surprise!" I geeked out, it's awesome to see up close.

I think the house is up for sale, and the most recent occupants have moved out. But all you really see over there anymore are occassional curiosity seekers like us pull up in front, idle the car for a few minutes and then continue on. People who live around there have more than gotten it out of their systems, they don't really bother with it that much.

Actually, the house they used as the location for the film is in Toms River, NJ. They dolled it up w/ some cosmetic facades to make it like the house on Ocean Avenue, & removed them when filming was over. So if you didn't know where it is, you'd probably never find it.

Iggy speaks true, and I used to work within farting distance of said domicile (18 Dock Street, Toms River, NJ). I used to work off of Irons Street west of the area.

How it looked about 2 years ago:



Oh, yeah! The folks there discourage visitors, so no loitering! Cops in the area can get particularly cranky.

I didn't know that - not that I thought they used THE actual house or anything, but I had no idea it was right there in Tom's River! You're right, going by the picture Tim posted, you'd never know.
