'''Movie Town Haikou''' ({{zh|s=海口电影公社}}) is an artificial town, movie studios, guest apartments, and administration buildings, approximately 8&nbsp;km south of [[Haikou]], Hainan, China. The town, located beside [[Mission Hills Haikou]] golf resort, was created as a movie and television filming location and tourist attraction. Some of the buildings still under construction are the town buildings and the movie studios with accompanying filming facilities.

The town opened on December 29, 2013, and was expected to be completed in 2014. As of May 2015 construction continues.
