The Vals


The movie, THE VALS (1986) aka VALLEY GIRLS (not to be confused with the Nichos Cage version)was filmed in Stockton in both September & October of 1982. In fact, The scene in Weberstown Mall Was filmed on October 4, 1982. Over 27 years ago. Sometime this week, I will have site comparisons between the movie and the actual filmed sites. Lots has changed!
