Anyone recognize these filming locations from the film "Deranged" in the Clarington/Kawartha region? I just want help...Its definitely on the ridges...I am almost ready to give up...The whole film is on youtube in 10 parts...The Skelding Jackpot location was as close-a-match as I have found yet...

I found it

Nov 2014. After 1500 kms logged I finally found the location of the Cobb farm. I have decided not to share the location to protect the present owners privacy. When I found this location I knew I had hit the jackpot. The original farmhouse was removed in 1986. A new hose was built. The barn where Sally was hung is still there but was moved backwards 100 feet . The farm across the road with the green roof is still there. The fork in the road is also just east of this farm. The crew found a very beautiful secluded location to make this film back in 1974. The present owners were unaware that they even filmed on their property at that time. This farm has been in the family since the 1800s.

They even gave me original photos of the farmhouse. I added them to the gallery .

What remains from the film in 2014? The barn where Sally is hung upside down naked, the flagpole on top of the Highridge, the farm across the road with the green roofs, the schoolhouse on top of the far hill before the T in the road.

Tom Karr, the producer of the film has been in touch with me about making a remake of the film

Oh yea, "The crew found a very beautiful secluded location to make this film back in 1974. To present owners were unaware that they even filmed on their property at that time. This farm has been in the family since the 1800s.". Now that's funny.

Yes the store is Enniskillen and the studio was Mitchell Corners. I wrote that online..The farm house location is still unknown, as is the fork in the road location.
