Not sure personally, but I know someone who does. Saw pics of them with Bob and Mike; porn 'stache and all. ;)

Shoot me a PM and I'll let you know.

In and around Coupland and Elgin per my friend. Both are east of Austin about 20min. You might ask around the towns and get more specific information.

I do - there have been several movies filmed there, plus the upcoming ABC tv series "Generations" was filmed there. But, it is private property and they will not let you go on it.

There are always people there, but it is less busy on the weekend. You could probably jump a fence and sneek in then, but it is ~5000 acres, so it would be hard to find on foot if you dont know where you are going.

I can tell you where the ranch is, but I have no idea where the actual location is on the ranch, not to mention the house may not be there anymore. I am told they usually knock them down when the movie is done to prevent people from wandering the property looking for it. I guess the TX chainsaw masacre was filmed there and people were always on the property looking for it.

I live in Lockhart, and there are definitely several scenes shot in and around the Lockhart area. I could identify where some of the scenes were shot, although, I'm not sure where the house was located.

The house is off Melber Lane near Cele, Tx. There was an article in the local paper about the owners when it came out. They did some "stage set" construction on it during filming so it doesn't look exactly the same and is painted white and not run down.

If I said I knew, I'd be lion. Or maybe even be a cheetah.
