Pennsylvania
Ever tried running up the staircase of the Philadelphia Museum of Art? No, us neither, as that will no doubt take a lot out of us. But forRocky Balboa, Sylvester Stallone’s lead character in his tribute to Pennsylvania powerful, Rocky. It’s a movie that gives you all the high-powered feels. The Sixth Sense, Groundhog Day, Best in Show, Blow Out, Philadelphia, Silver Linings Playbook, Night of the Living Dead (1968), Dawn of the Dead (1978), The Deer Hunter, and My Girl are a few of the Pennsylvania- set films
Rhode Island
Hollywood filmmakers enjoy making New England spine-chilling. And it doesn’t get any eerie than The Conjuring. The Rhode-Islands-set film is supposedly based-on-a-true-story, a ghost story about a Rhode Island home that is very haunted. For those of you who are still afraid of the dark, this may not be the film for you, but we have a few more options available, Steve Carell dramedy Dan in Real Life, The Witches of Eastwick, boxing drama Bleed for This, musical comedy High Society (1956), and Outside Providence.
