Ideal location: Wilmington film history and the Ideal Cement factory

Let's talk a little bit of Wilmington film history, history that took place in an unlikely location in the northern wilds of New Hanover County. The massive, shut-down Ideal Cement plant near Castle Hayne has been the site of a dozen or more major film productions over the decades, some of them with very famous names: "The Crow," "Super Mario Bros." and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," just to name three. Cape Fear Unearthed is written, edited and hosted by John Staton. Additional editing by Adam Fish.
