Can I use present perfect in this context
This is the place where one of my favorite movies was shot.
This is the place where one of my favorite movies has been shot.
Obviously past simple is definitely right here and would be everyone's first choice
but I wonder why I can't use present perfect since shooting was done in an unspecified point of time.

thatkoko666 shooting was done in an unspecified point of time. We all know that movies are shot at a specific time and place. So even though a time isn't mentioned specifically, it is implied.
