Ooh, good answer, but wasn't that filmed in Gateshead?

The famous car park (that I think has recently been demolished?)

My knowlege of geography is vastly inferior to my (poor) knowlege of films, so I'm just going by 70's films where the main character dies at the end.

*spoiler alert*

The Godfather
The Life of Brian
The Exorcist
The Wicker Man
