Batman - Part of the atmosphere processor set from Aliens was used for Axis Chemicals. Gremlins and Back to the Future - Kingston Falls and Hill Valley look strangely similar.

The gigantic temple set from James Whale's adventure film Green Hell was reused for one of the Mummy movies in the 1940s.

This is what I'm talking about when we see this beautiful sets like this to only often get destroyed later. At least this one got more usage.

I had the impression that the French movies Queen Margot (1994) and Cyrano De Bergerac (1990) might have used some of the same sets, at least some of the locations did look quite similar, but I don't know whether this is accurate.

When Joseph L. Mankiewicz was in pre-production for his 1953 film of Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” at MGM, he was forced to re-use the massive sets of ancient Rome that had been a part of the studio’s big hit of 1951, “Quo Vadis.” Shakespeare was considered Box Office Poison at the time so Mankiewicz had to skimp on the budget. “Julius Caesar,” however, also turned out to be a critical and box office hit and also showed that Marlon Brando (in only his fourth movie role) and the acting style known as The Method could be successful in classical drama.

Not a big reach but the final 'fortress' in Dr. No is the same room as the vault in Goldfinger.

The lab equipment in Young Frankenstein was the same used in the original Frankenstein.

I guess it's pretty well known that the giant village gate in King Kong became Atlanta ablaze in Gone With The Wind.

The fortress in the 1970 western El Condor was used in many other movies, including Conan The Barbarian (1982).
The sets from Battle Beyond The Stars was used for the the sci-fi horror film Galaxy Of Terror.

The garage in The Mask was the firehouse from Ghostbusters.

The mansion in the finale of Scream 3 is the same place they filmed the dumbwaiter death in Halloween H20.
