List of films shot in Thousand Oaks

Last updated

This is an incomplete list of films shot in City of Thousand Oaks in the U.S. state of California.

Several productions made use of the unusual appearance of the old Thousand Oaks Civic Center. It was the building that housed Proteus IV in the 1977 movie 'Demon Seed', and the bunker Steve Austin crossed a mine field to reach in a Season 2 episode of 'The Six Million Dollar Man' called 'The Return of the Robot Maker'.
