Sam Raimi’s latest directorial venture, Don’t Move, recently debuted on Netflix and has already garnered much attention from the audience. The movie follows the journey of Iris, who struggles to navigate her way through life due to her traumatic past. However, things begin to unravel after a serial killer hops on her trail and injects her with a paralytic drug. Determined to live, Iris does everything she can to ensure her survival before losing control of her body. With such a gripping narrative, Raimi’s Don’t Move has piqued the interest of several viewers, who are also curious about the flick’s filming locations.
Here are all the details regarding where Netflix’s Don’t Move was filmed.
Where is Netflix’s Don’t Move filmed?
Don’t Move’s filming locations are mainly Sofia, Bulgaria, and surrounding areas. Some sequences of Don’t Move were also filmed in Monterey County, California.
Seaside, California
The movie opens with a glorious shot of Iris’ house, visibly situated in an affluent neighborhood. The actual location of Iris’ residence is near Sea Ridge Ct, in California. Despite being the protagonist’s house, the movie does not devote much time to this site.
Bixby Creek Bridge, Monterey, California
Viewers also get to see a glimpse of the iconic Bixby Creek Bridge at the beginning during one of Iris’ driving sequences. Located on the Californian coastline, the architectural masterpiece has served as a filming location for multiple TV shows and movies, aside from Don’t Move, including Big Little Lies.
Massey Bi Sur State Park (a fictional park filmed in Bulgaria)
At the beginning of the film, Iris rolls up to Massey Bi Sur State Park. The location is especially haunting for Iris as her son tragically lost his life there on a previous hiking trip. The park is entirely fictional and draws inspiration from California’s Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park. Situated beside the Big Sur River, Pfeiffer Park is primarily known for its scenic ‘mini Yosemite’ landscapes. Nevertheless, the park showcased in Don’t Move was shot somewhere in Bulgaria.
Zlatnite Mostove, Bulgaria
The scene where Iris embarks on a trek to arrive at Mateo’s resting place is filmed at Zlatnite Mostove in Sofia City Province in Bulgaria. The location is famous for being the largest stone river on Vitosha Mountain.
Belogradchik Fortress, Bulgaria
The memorial for Iris’ son is located at the Belogradchik Fortress, a tourist attraction in Vidin Province in Bulgaria. This filming location for Don’t Move also serves as the meeting point for Iris and Richard, the serial killer.
Sofia, Bulgaria
Sofia is the filming location where most of the wilderness sequences for Don’t Move were shot. Across the film, viewers are treated to several picturesque lakes and forest-covered mountains, most of which are situated in Bulgaria’s Sofia.
