The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005)
Humma Kavula, played by John Malkovich, preaches at an altar adorned with a pentagram. [00:48:00] According to the DVD commentary, the "church" scene [00:47:00 - 00:51:00] was filmed in Freemason's Hall in London. This is less a masonic reference than it is masonic trivia.
Garth Jennings and Nick Goldsmith:
"And this is the Freemason's Hall, in Central London."
"The world headquarters."
"And this was quite a coup, wasn't it, to get filming in here ?"
"Yeah, I think so."
"I don't think anyone had filmed in the main hall. They'd filmed in the building."
