A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) was filmed in Gary, Elk Grove High School and John Hersey High School, 3 places named in its Wikipedia article's Filming section, in the United States.

Places per Wikipedia's Filming section

Wikipedia’s Filming section names 3 places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it was shot there

4 places whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.
