Who has seen the Northville Cemetary Massacre?

 I've read the Northville Cemetary Massacre  was made in "Detroit", but when they say that they often mean the Detroit metro area, of which Northville is a part.  Was the movie made in the actual city of Northville?  

There's its website for those curious..  http://www.ci.northville.mi.us/

The reason I'm interested is I spent the first 18 years of my life in Northville.  I've driven by Northville Cemetary hundreds of times.  When I first saw the name in a cult flicks book, it drew my attention, but I haven't seen too much information.  I'd guess they just used the name (especially since the film is also known as The Northfield Cemetary Massacre), but it is possible it was actually filmed there - filming a movie there today would probably be too expensive for a low budget production, but in the 70s the city was much less affluent.  

Anyone know?  Or can anyone provide screencaps of any views of the city in the film so I can tell for myself?  

Thanks for any help!

I have a copy somewhere on VHS. If I could only find it.......
Anyway, I see it for sale on ebay quite a bit. I know one scene that shows the old Jolly Roger drive in that was in Taylor on Ecorse or Van Born road.
