Ventura is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 3 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“The film was shot in 1999 over eleven weeks, of which five took place in Ventura, California.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Ventura as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
- Erin Brockovich 2000
-
Little Miss Sunshine
2006
“The contestants and their families instead spent two weeks filming in a hotel in Ventura with most of the equipment and costumes being provided by the contestants' parents.” Wikipedia
-
Escape from L.A.
1996
“To create the impression of a crowded post-apocalyptic freeway, 250 broken cars were sourced from a junkyard in Ventura.” Wikipedia
Named here by Ventura’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Ventura, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Swordfish 2001
“The movies Swordfish, Little Miss Sunshine and Erin Brockovich were partially filmed in Ventura.” Wikipedia
