- Finally, I am covering the filming locations for my favorite movie of all time!
This video was originally intended to come out in 2023 for the 40th anniversary. Due to multiple unforeseen circumstances, including having to restart the editing process over twice due to software glitches, the video is going public a little bit late. Thank you for your understanding.
Although this movie has been covered multiple times, I did want to point out that in this video, you will find at least 3 locations that, as far as I know, have never been discovered before. That's something I'm pretty proud of.

This video was supposed to come out in 2023 for the 40th anniversary. See the description for more details. I hope you enjoy!
Love all the videos aunt Edna really had a stroke and they had to stop filming. Was a hard shot since they went to each place.
Hey Kurt is the version of holiday road done by Vector Hold? I really dig the song I have been checking out some of his music on band camp reminds me of Jan Hammers work. Great sound!
What was your bands name? I've heard you reference it in several videos and I'm curious. Nice video, as always!
This was great! I love how you involved your family (I’m guessing, or strangers you found along the way) and recreated some of the scenes, I laughed my ass off.
Same Car Dealership in Commando ? The on where he drove out the window at the beginning
The amount of time & effort put into creating this is staggering. A fitting tribute for a classic slice of my childhood. A simple thank you barely scratches the surface. Hats off to you my friend!
You’d think he’d know the car wasn’t called the “Queen Family Truckster” though.
Roy Wally, is also The Toy Store owner in Home Alone 2 Lost in New York!
Right, Eddie Bracken was a famous actor from the WW2 era and forward. I think playing Mr. Duncan in Home Alone 2 may have been his last movie.
Roy Wally is a parody of the actual Walt Disney
@@user-ft6og5vl6n or Roy Disney who took over the company upon his brother's death.
The amount of research and detail that goes into making these videos is amazing 👏 👏👏
Your film location videos are absolutely the best on the Internet. I love your research, presentation and delivery. Thank you so much for doing these
I’m happy you finally got to release this obvious labor of love.
ME TOO! haha. Thank you so much!
I hope Warner is finally giving you the escrow from this. You deserve it especially for all of this hard work and quality.
She'a beaut, Kurt. My buddy got to work on the production as a production assistant when they filmed the Wally World stuff at Santa Anita. We were in high school and they had a very local specific class you could take called "race track management" so he was working at the race track and got picked to drive Chevy around in a golf cart. Pretty cool. Thanks for making this one
Epic filming location video. This needs to go viral. Amazing job love your work.
Let's make it happen. Thank you so much!
Bro your videos are so much fun but this one was just EPIC! Your meltdown scene deserves an Oscar! You are living your best life and watching your family be involved and enjoying it too is heartwarming. I’m always ready for what’s next!
Awesome dude, you hit it right on! Well done!
Great job! I showed my dad the Warner Ranch and Gremlins filming location videos, he loves all those movies, he raised me on Second City, can't wait to show him this one, keep up the good work! 👍
Does your son know how cool his dad actually is or does he think you're a dork like most kids his age think of their fathers. YOU ROCK KURT!!!
My ALL TIME favorite movie. Thanks for making this.
Your joy for film and love of the movies really show in your videos. You are my favorite filming locations CZcamsr and I really appreciate all your work on your videos. Thank You!
Happy to see this posted after all the set backs! Great work
So cool man!! You did a fantastic job. Thank you
Wow, you did an excellent job putting this video together. Your locations, then and now, were perfect. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brilliant video Kurt really enjoyed it I'm definitely going to watch more then once and I'm going to share it with a lot of my friends you are definitely the king of Filming locations and more 👍
Best one I've seen yet. Great stuff Curt 👍
Great video Kurt! Well worth the wait!
Love your filming location videos!
80s Life- I was born 5½ years before 'National Lampoon's Vacation' came out & I didn't see it until sometime in the mid-1990's.
My dad loves this movie & was the person who first introduced me to it, as a matter of fact.
Thanks, a lot!...
Oh, my goodness that was so freaking amazing Kurt. So detailed
Hi Kurt, Jeff from Detroit. You just did one of my Top 10 movies. I never knew the gas station was on Santa Monica Blvd. I stay in that area all of the time when I visit, and I think my son and I ate at a restaurant that was where the gun shop was shown. My mind is blown! I don't know how you don't have 500k subs yet, as I've been enjoying your videos for many years. Keep up the great work!
LOVED this video (and of course the movie). Extra kudos for giving credit to Adam the Woo. He's equally amazing. Great work and an amazing video!
Of course. I must give credit where credit is due. Thank you so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it
Kurt, love all your videos, but this is by your best. I actually was right there on Leroux last year and didn't even realize the significance of that location. Keep up the fantastic work.
Woohoo 🎉🙌 4th time is a charm?! Thank you for redoing this and getting it out there for us! 🤪🍻
I love these kinds of videos. Your vids are so detailed and thorough. Nice job and worth the wait.

This is so good! You found so many locations. Thank you for the time you put into these location videos.
😂 dancing with a bologna sandwich and your skit with your son at the hotel cracked me up.
This was so freaking awesome! You did freaking a lot of work and we appreciate it!!!
Haha. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you so much!!
Amazing video. Vacation is the number one comedy of all time, IMO. Watch it every summer season.
Better than Summer Rental??
Well done, sir! Warms my heart seeing the original locations...and realizing I've stood at the lobby at the Strader Hotel in Durango without even knowing it was used in the movie!
Just like the movie THIS WAS FUN! So appropriate that the whole Crucial family took part in this! My favorite location video of Kurt's favorite movie! Great work and thanks for the memories down "Holiday Road" 👻💙🫎
Thank you so much! 🙂
Amazing job tracking all of that down.
Epic Thumbnail!
Awesome Vid!
Love it!❤
Thanks for another great video, just watched it again on VHS.
Really enjoyed watching 👍🏻
Gee, thanks for making me feel old! 40 years! Time flies. Great video.
It sure does. Sigh. Thank you for watching.
Big thanks for doing the research and travel to make this video. This is one of my very favourite movies of all times.
Awesome!!
Thank you!
Amazing video!! Love all the research!!
Amazing job brother 😎👍
Thank you!
Excellent all-over the map work from a bonafide classic. Getting into character 😂
This was freaking great!! The best filming location videos on CZcams. Your reenactments are priceless. Thanks for all that work!!!
Great video great family 👪 Thank you sir!!😎👍
Thank you so much!!!
Nicely done sir.
One of my favorite movies ever! I watch this at least 1-3 times a month.lol.Thanx for sharing 🤘 Great video.!! Love yer channel!!
Thanks for the props to Adam...I saw his post a few months back. That homeowner was completely deranged. After Adam left, the guy jumped in his truck and chased him down. Good grief. On another note, I saw on a recent ComicCon type event that Dana Barron (Audrey) is in a motorized wheelchair. I wonder what she's afflicted with. So sad, though...she seems like a genuinely good and decent person.
Wow great video. One thumbs up is not enough
Amazing work! 👏
Great movie, thank you!💯💫👍✌!
That was fun I sure enjoyed it thanks for sharing
Aweeeeeeeeesome 🎉!
Phenomenal stuff 🏆🏆
Revolution.
Historic, iconic roller coaster.
Finally back to classic.
I love this ride.
Great job! We live in Arizona and I've been to that gas station but had no idea it was used in Vacation
