A well-known California ghost town has a new owner, but nobody is quite sure what comes next for Eagle Mountain, California. The desert locale near Joshua Tree National Park was once a mining town before it shuttered in the 1980s, reports the Los Angeles Times. Since then, Eagle Mountain has become something of a go-to locale for Hollywood directors seeking a "surreal" landscape, notes SFGate. The lists of films shot there include Christopher Nolan's Tenet. Various proposals to turn the town into a landfill, a hydroelectric power plant, or perhaps a recycling center have fizzled over the years.
