Top Ten Tuesdays

I hope one day we do films set in the Deep South so i can include films such as The Skeleton Key, Gator Bait and of course Southern Comfort.

@MrBarlow - The Skeleton Key isn't set in New Orleans. One scene is actually in the city that's all, the rest is a place called Terrebonne Parish. I know this as i've only just watched it again recently.

In the film, Terrebonne Parish is in Louisiana and I did say that you could expand from New Orleans to the whole of Louisiana if you didn't have 10 films set in the state's biggest city.

I think The Last Exorcism is set in or around Baton Rouge, with the sequel in New Orleans, so they are both based in Louisiana.
