32 Hidden Filming Locations Where Movie Magic Was Made
7. Pyestock Jet Engine Testing Facility, UK – The Ultimate Sci-Fi Dystopia
Before being demolished, the abandoned Pyestock Testing Facility in England was a playground for filmmakers looking for the perfect dystopian aesthetic. This massive industrial complex, filled with decaying turbines and labyrinthine corridors, was used in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and other sci-fi thrillers. The eerie, high-tech ruins gave films a gritty, lived-in feel, perfect for stories about post-industrial collapse or futuristic conspiracy. Though much of the facility is now gone, its cinematic legacy lives on in the films that captured its haunting interiors.
