Ok fourmers, I need your help. I recently watched the Canadian B (I don't think there will ever be a "A" Canadian horror/sci fi movie

) movie "Decoys". The movie was filmed in the Ottawa area in 2004 and sets allot of itself on the University of Ottawa campus. Although i recognized most of the locations used, there was one building I was not familiar with. this on:

Anyone know. I want to say its in Sandy Hill but I have never seen it before. And I would think those Greek columns would give it anyway.

*Edit. I think this should be moved to "General Discussion".

I remember walking through the set of decoys when they were filming this at U of O several years back. They did it in winter (December?) I have no idea where that building is. It definitely does not belong to U of O.

There has been a number of movies made at U of O for the lifetime network in the US. Often parts of them are filmed here and parts of them in Montreal.

I love watching them go through and Americanize the campus with USPS mailboxes and by covering up every single bilingual sign in sight. All the bilingual no parking and stop signs much be a real pain....

Looks to me like the old convent behind Ste-Anne church in Lowertown, on what used to be called Anglesea Square before urban "renewal".

I believe this is Tabaret Hall at the University of Ottawa, though it's not the main entrance to the building.

Look again Acajack, that's not Tabaret. I know the facade and the Greek lettering (but not the two ladies)
