And here is another moment in Tiki Devolution:

Digging around the web, I found out that the "South Seas" Apartments on 19223 Saticoy Street in Reseda had been the location home of the 1984 classic "Karate Kid" (even though CheekyGirl had mentioned this here before)

Very appropriately for the state of Tiki in 1984, the place is characterized as a "dump" in the movie:

When I found and photographed the place for the BOT (page 218/19) in the early 90's, it didn't look that bad, the pool was fixed, but except for the cool font there was nothing left worthy of documentation. I wonder if it is still up. Has anybody been by there recently?
