This interior was inspired by the Ennis House in Hollywood, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

  1. I love the Ennis House. It was actually used for location shots in two of my favorite films; "Blade Runner" and William Castle's "House on Haunted Hill". There's just something about the house that creates a certain mood and feeling. Thanks, Dave.

  2. What, that was just a set? I thought they actually filmed those scenes at the Ennis House!

  3. David - I also thought it was shot at the Ennis House, but I believe somebody quickly corrected me on a previous post!
