I happened upon this interesting Youtube video that compares the filming locations from 1978 and today simultaneously. Very creative work. It took some time and effort to put this nearly 20 minute comparison together. If you have never had the opportunity to visit the original filming locations or even if you have this is a nice watch. There is even a short clip of John Carpenter giving some wise film making advice before the actual video begins. I do not know the person who put this together (he may even be a member here) but if it has already been posted I apologizes in advance. For those who have not seen it enjoy… I did. Mike 
Very cool… when I first moved up to hollywood I lived not more than HALF a mile from the wallace/doyle homes… still drive by them every day.
