Tuff Turf Filming Locations

[@cgimovieman]

It’s wild. Despite growing up in all of the 80’s and 90’s, I have absolutely NO recollection of this movie at all. But for some reason, I still find this utterly interesting.

[@PolaBurrr]

It’s free on Pluto

[@ronthatus]

It’s actually a good movie

[@SALTER818]

It wasn't advertised. Kinda of movie you stumble on in video store,, It's free on youtube but not good quality...

[@MrSUNGOD77]

I actually saw this movie in The Broadway theater in Santa Ana, CA. back when it came out 1985

[@stephenbanks5860]

It wasn't a big hit but good movie nonetheless.

[@SebastianSmith-c5t]

80s version of Rebel Without A Cause. I have this on VHS and DVD. You did a a great for job. Classic 80s gem.

[@Mookie_Wilson]

love this flick. just rewatched it a little while ago. Young Spader is awesome

[@cm-ih1jb]

One of my favourite 80s movies! Cheesy as hell but it’s ace! 🤘

[@OH.A.M.]

Wow! The 80’s were beautiful compare to everything now. You did an amazing job walking us through all those scenes.

[@TimLindsay]

love the bones hat kurt

[@SatoshiHODL]

Man, your reviews of filming locations are the best and you’re introducing new or unknown classics to those of us that are old enough to have grown up during this era, but just missed out. Thanks K for all you do. It really is a great service to your subscribers and beyond.

[@pjdexter168]

This is awesome, I literally just watched this movie again recently.

[@sergiomontes5534]

Never seen this movie before, I'm going to have to look for it so I can watch it.

[@feedthehungry1]

Man I had this on VHS and used to play it over and over again............Great Job Kurt finding these places I cant believe the way some places have changed like the high school............Wow bro what a trip it feels like a different life when I think back to that time I must have been 16 years old..........Unreal buddy thanks for the video it was worth the wait !!!!!!! Heath

[@emiledinger2963]

Another fantastic episode Kurt! Im hoping one day you will do the 1986 Anthony Michael Hall movie "Out of Bounds." Great 80's LA movie, Starring Jenny Wright and Jeff Kober and even Jerry Levine(Styles from Teen Wolf!!) Performance by Siouxsie and the Banshees doing Cities in Dust. If you look close there is a scene with LA punk band The Joneses hanging out on Hollywood Blvd. Thanks again for the great videos!

[@gregoriopreciado6719]

Damn! Just Saw this movie the other day? And ask Kurt if he can do one on out of bound. ... guess I wasn't the only one.😉

[@QuicksFlicksMovies]

I love this movie! I recently met Panchito Gomez & had him sign my Tuff Turf bluray. He was real cool & told me some behind the scenes stuff about some of the actors. Great video!

[@SergioArellano-yd7ik]

Does he still look the same? I saw him in a bionic woman episode in the 70s he never seems to age

[@QuicksFlicksMovies]

@@SergioArellano-yd7ik he still looks good, he’s real short lol

[@jonasness]

Rad! I've been waiting for this one. I remember I wrote you about it when you first started your channel. Thanks so much! My buddy and I are going to check them out for ourselves someday.

[@blue_vicious]

Brought back a few memories. I use to live less than a mile and a half away from there through most of the 80's (till '87, actually). From my own recollection, Aviation High was defunct for decades. I believe it was already closed when they made the movie. One of my closest friends back then got on as an extra on Tuff Turf and got paid $20 a day for a few days....she was on the movie itself for about a milisecond. Lol.

[@brianmcgill9434]

Tuff Turf was always a favorite! Another awesome movie location video!

[@minitrucker8835]

Brings me back... appreciate the time and effort you put into the videos.. 👍

[@Simini1083]

I LOVE that movie. Thanks for sharing. 😎👍

[@jeffbeach510]

I love your videos , even movies I haven't seen yet. Keep it up man they are awesome

[@eramos7055]

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!!!

[@FIGNAS83]

Never saw this gem. I'll add it to my list.

[@gerrygizzygarcia2572]

Great memories I actually took pics myself outside of Morgan's house too in 2012 which is in Culver City and I spoke with one of the guys that plays a villian in the movie aka panchito Gomez who told me some cool stories bout that flick I loved tuff turf as a kid I'm gonna have to but that movie again

[@v2vroth]

Another great 80s movie and video. Thanks Kurt. I had the biggest crush on Kim Richards. She was so beautiful in this movie.

[@courtney.malone]

Awesome!! I just found this on tubi!! I'm gonna watch it for the first time!!

[@johncasey281]

Great video: Trees have definitely become Kurts filming nemesis. :)

[@shaqfoomusic816]

Been waiting on acting thing I’m stoked to catch this one day 1 lol

[@DWINC]

Never saw this but now I will

[@DWINC]

Ok watched it…wasn’t good but the 2hrs were worth rivisiting this video

[@porterhouse7260]

Thanks for this, requested this a few days back, Sweet!

[@JessV049]

I definitely don’t **do too many SUBS your definitely one of em . Love all your content Cool movie .. Especially your CHIPS episodes !

[@noelchrisjohnbenson8161]

had to come check this out and rediscover this. I recently befriended Paul Mones, didn't know he had a big role in this film pretty cool.

[@DNicetwice]

Oh my god 🤩 I just recently asked you about this funky ass film 😎🙌🏻 thank you man 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@johnnyjesus8]

Wow another brilliant Location video. I noticed Art Evans the guy playing the security guard I remember when I lived in San bernardino in 87 his brother owned a video store on highland Ave he had pictures of Art all over the store he was a Nice guy.

[@un_loco_gringo7457]

Yes! Thank you!

[@MichelleBab-gy2yx]

I was a little kid in the 80's. I love what you're doing! This is my jam. Wish it was still the early '80's 😺❤❤❤

[@thefinerthingsinlife4557]

Thank you again Kurt! I never saw this movie, but I did have a crush on Kim Richards at that time. She was HAF back then!

[@MrBigdavehd97]

Great job as always,Dude The Wild life no one has done it!!!! Challenge

[@John-kx3ng]

This is a great yet very underrated movie of the 80s . Thankyou very much for the upload! 👍

[@80sLife]

I agree. Thank you for watching

[@tyson1fan487]

One of my all time favorites!!!

[@johnmartin7182]

As always awesome content thanks

[@armandobenitez2093]

Another great job amigo 👍👍!

[@timdaugherty5921]

Love these videos!!

[@johnniebravo5985]

Another totally awesome video Kurt! Love young Spader and these 80's movies! You should do Mannequin filming locations

[@rodneyslater3230]

CHIPS was filmed at that old high school in 1981 or 82, when Ponch and Bobby were riding together. Bobby’s brother Bruce was a CHP Cadet when they sent him undercover to expose drug sales, illegal betting and even car stripping in the auto shop class. The show also filmed down the street at the former Malibu Castle, former Boomers Arcade at the West End of the Metro Green Line Station in 25:15 Redondo Beach. Right up the street from that Station is where the TRW and Matel Buildings were located. Danny Bonaduce played a student named Myron Finkenbaum, one of the students at that high school. I used to ride the Metro Green Line from Norwalk to the end of the line in what I believe is Lawndale, not Redondo Beach.

[@handymanbrian8269]

One of my favorite flicks. 3 o'clock high, and my body guard seemed to be similar.

[@ronthatus]

Love the dancing scene at the club/warehouse when Jim Carrol is performing

[@rapidhearttv]

Wow! Great stuff! I worked on Tuff Turf! Lotsa memories. I'm also in the film. Love your channel

[@lovebuzz1979]

Love your channel! I remember this movie! I had a crush on James Spader. Loving the 80s movie location. I'm glad I found your channel.

[@hayleycomet8029]

Omg yesssssssssssss! Love this movie :)))))))))))

[@jokerfleckcast3196]

This film is underrated. The soundtrack is superb, especially Jonathan Elias themes

[@joseyeastwood]

I Can't believe Morgan is the same man from The Blacklist James Spader is a really good actor great vlog.

[@georges8200]

one of my favorite movies

[@cozmikfunkrabbitt30]

saw this at my local theater and still have on VHS, great job as always

[@lolamary2363]

Love this! Best scene ever is Jim Carroll band playing during the dance scene! Robert Downey Jr. playing drums! Classic! ❤

[@D4RKxHOR1ZoN]

Yes yes. Another great video. 8️⃣0️⃣S❤️. It's interesting how some locations don't really change much and stand the test of time.

[@ygorcarneiro9097]

Brazil loves your channel!!!! Congratulações!!!!

[@franciscobriseno9525]

Thanks for answering my request my wife loves Tuff Turf

[@howdoyoumakeup73]

Love this movie one of my favorites ! Love the So Tuff song from the soundtrack! Love that part of it was filmed in the valley. It’s so fun showing these films to my kids as they get older and letting them see how things used to look and how many movies were filmed there! Thank you!

[@Stevelives13]

You should be working for LAPD with these detective skills.

[@adrianajones7181]

Just found your channel. I loved this movie, one I have to watch with my adult kids. We watch all the old 80’s movies. How do you find all the places, so impressed. Thank you so much, fun watching

[@LinkMassing]

Wow, I forgot about this movie. I remember watching this late at night on HBO when I was a kid. Kurt, you are awesome!

[@rina67800]

I finished watching the movie "tuff turf" and wow!! I can see changes in some places. Thank you for sharing with us the "before" and "now" of the film.

[@Joe-eg7ml]

Nice, please do Savage Streets next!

[@davecasebolt6418]

I loved this movie when I was a teen. Very under rated, kind of a darker ghetto version of the Karate Kid. This was before James Spader and Robert Downey Jr became A-List actors. Great video and fun to watch. I really miss the simple times of the 80s and 90s.

[@johndornoff]

13:05 You can tell it is a fake wall; just look at the difference between the part on the right of the corner and the portion to the left of the corner. I remember them filming the scenes in Highland Park as I would travel through there frequently. The only reason I went to see this movie in the theater was because it had Kim Richards in it.

[@richielewis7350]

I’m a newer follower. I love filming location videos, and you’re channel is the best out there. Some of the others range from bad to downright annoying. You always have great content. I’m looking forward to watching your past videos!

[@ericmedina7798]

Wow! Awesome vid Kurt! I think James Spader is a great actor! One of my favourites! Robert Downey jr. is also great! Do you think the 80s will ever make a comeback?

[@mitchellgiffard1978]

Funny enough Robert Downey Jr & James Spader are the closet of friends

[@stephpom5373]

Finally been missing filming locations

[@matthewfarmer6830]

You need to do the movie location of "Vision Quest" Matthew Modine.🎥😎 1985

[@koreancardboard]

Finally got around to watching this movie a few days ago after watching this vid a month ago. Enjoyed it! Great job as always on the filming locations.

[@Lilith6416]

This was my favorite movie when it first came out. And even though I’m 52 now I still love this movie. ❤

[@homeremodelerpro1501]

My favorite movie as a kid. Watching it again recently I thought this was shot in NY, has no idea parts were close to where I grew up in Venice. Love it!

[@richardsanchez5558]

This is my favorite 80s flick of all time

[@petethegreek1157]

This channel rocks man 🔥 Loved the movie. Morgan was the man back then 80s forever

[@80sLife]

Thank you so much!!

[@ErinsNerdStuff]

Fantastic video. Tuff Turf is one of my must see movie locations. I’m glad that there’s still so many landmarks to match the scenes up with. ❤

[@rzfs1v]

Awesome job! I watched this movie so many times growing up. I was obsessed with that Camaro, lol.

[@kenkobra]

At 17:36, wasn't part of the movie Class or Making the Grades filmed there?

[@waryinzero]

ooh. May I also recommend for you LA Story, Down and Out in Beverly Hills, and of course seve7n

[@harleymax01]

This movie is awesome. Rented it in the 1980's at my small town video store.

[@NickL951]

Great video! Did you ever notice in movies when a car hits a bike the bike sails straight up into the air? Wouldnt it go forward ? Awww 80s physics

[@blue_vicious]

Great video, Kurt! 👍

[@80sLife]

Thank you so much! Thank you for the super thanks.

[@mulldezee4034]

This is so detailed thank you very much brother for taking your time for such a perfect work 38 year ago difference this is very informative, good job.

[@cjcadventures]

A really fantastic video as always I could watch your video's all day well done Kurt 👍

[@jokerfleckcast3196]

Fun fact. The main bad guy actor, Paul Mones became a rabbi !

[@80sLife]

Really?? Interesting

[@jokerfleckcast3196]

@@80sLife yes. I just happened to look up his name a few months back, and it said he used to be an actor, now a rabbi called Paul "Moshe" Mones.

[@ericriedesel1338]

One of my top 5 favorite movies of all time. Such a cool video to do and See. So awesome!!!! Thanks for this !!!

[@warrencarl9797]

Watched this while watching the movie in the back ground. Thats for an awesome review. As always.

[@BorgesProduction]

This is so cool. Very thorough with the locations. Well done

[@tantze]

Great movie and fantastic soundtrack!

[@chrisharjo3875]

This was a movie I saw the trailer for back in 1985, probably before Back to the Future or something else, but never saw. It seems to be a forgotten movie. The plot seems similar to Karate Kid. Teen moves to LA suburb, gets bullied, fights back.

[@njosborne5540]

This is a great one, and Jim Carroll made a cameo in the film! Have you considered Out of Bounds with Anthony Michael Hall for a location video?

[@Maiconh-z8l]

Você faz belo trabalho nos mostra nessa viajem ao passado onde esses filmes aqui no brasil fez minha infancia feliz anos 80 e 90 ..🇧🇷

[@mastroia0077]

Fantastic work friend...cheers from brazil

[@clintonphillips1361]

That was very well done , everything I wanted to see , good job , love the movie

[@mourning_ghost]

Sandy's Burgers was also in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back (not 80's though).

[@el-shadow71]

AGAIN...great job!!!

[@Andreasloveofreading]

This just made my life!!❤

[@davefilms345]

Never seen this film Kurt, but love as always your attention to detail. Absolutely fantastic as always I've watched all your content on your Channel countless times, I love it. Looking forward to the next one 😃

[@Lawoman-n6e]

I really liked this movie! How can we forget. James spader, Robert Downy Jr. & Kim Richards with her signature long hair! Yep no extensions on her! 💙 Thanks!

[@ChipWhitingtonIII]

Another great one, Kurt. Donald P. Borchers, the producer, has his own youtube channel, did you reach out to him regarding locations?

[@jackedkerouac4414]

14:07 2 eggs 2 hotcakes and a choice of 2 sausages or bacon for $1.59. No wonder my allowance was $5 every Friday. That was pretty generous!

[@sharonm.t.2492]

Did you ever check out the 80s Movie Rewind site? There was someone on there who knew where all the locations were and would argue ot on the message boards. That wasn't you was it? Learned a lot of the Tuff Turf locations from him.

[@1_Bad_Z]

Oh my. Saw this in 1985. I was about in the 5th grade.
