    Short Circuit.

    Also, the Ring (the 2002 English remake of Ringu) was decent. I don't know where it was filmed, but I heard it was in Oregon. The characters and dialogue were terrible, but the pacing, atmosphere, music, effects, etc were really cool.

    Speaking of movies in Oregon, Phil Knight is building 'Laika animation studios' in Tualatin.
