The American equivalent of the BBC Quarry, a distinctive set of striated sandstone slabs, dozens to hundreds of feet tall, sharply-angled and pointed at their tops. Familiar from its use as an exterior location in any number of Science Fiction programs and Westerns (including the films Blazing Saddles and The Magnificent Seven Ride Again, as well as the "Sleestak Diner" scene in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back), and no few automobile commercials. It is also the location of the Brandeis-Bardin Institute, which was composited into the first five seasons of Power Rangers as the Command Center/Power Chamber building. The entire town of Bedrock in The Flintstones was constructed here. Probably best known from its several appearances on Star Trek over the years (especially the Original Series episode "Arena"), whence comes the popular nickname for one of the formations (and by extension the entire area). The movie Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey specifically points this trope out by having the boys watching said episode, before their robotic duplicates drag them out to the rock to kill them.
In reality these are known as the Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park, in Agua Dulce, California, once known for being a hideout of Tiburcio Vásquez, a notorious bandito who was one of the inspirations for the character of Zorro. This landmark is located about 30 miles north of Hollywood, which conveniently places it within the "Thirty Mile Zone", a union rule that declares any Hollywood-based production that takes place outside of this area to be "on location", and therefore requires the studio to compensate crew for their travel and accommodation expenses. Keeping film production within the TMZnote Yes, the Hollywood gossip series was named after this zone therefore keeps labor costs down. Here's the Wikipedia entry, with a detailed history of "Kirk's Rock" in TV and film.
There was a fortress erected on the Vasquez Rocks park grounds in 1956 that was used for the filming of the TV series, "The Tales of the Bengal Lancers", and later was used for other film projects including Star Trek (it was "Cestus III" in the episode, "Arena") and "The Rat Patrol." The fortress set was torn down by the park service in 1974.
Compare Bronson Canyon and Caves and Down L.A. Drain, other Los Angeles settings used many, many times in film and television. See Hey, It's That Place! for a general listing of very commonly used locales. Not to be confused with Vasquez Always Dies.

Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey: Lampshaded: Just before the boys meet the Evil Robots, they're watching that particular episode of Star Trek on TV. When the Robots drag the boys up to the rock to kill them, we even get a recreation of the dramatic zoom out from Trek. They are then murdered by being thrown from the top of the rocks.

The Rat Patrol: Part of the second season episode "The Darers Go First Raid" was filmed at Kirk's Rock (the opening scene when a German armored convoy is seen rolling toward a desert base).
The end of the episode took place at said desert base, which was actually a fortress erected on the Vasquez Rocks park grounds and also used for filming episodes of Star Trek (it was notably "Cestus III" in the episode, "Arena") and the series, "Tales of the Bengal Lancers." The fortress set was torn down by the park service in 1974.

In Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Federal Wildlife Marshal Willenholly is a reference to the characters Marshall, Will and Holly on Land of the Lost (1974) — a shout out reinforced by the subsequent appearance of the Sleestak Diner sitting in the shadow of Kirk's Rock.

Mario Kart 8: The game's DLC has the "Cheese Land" level, which resembles the rocky deserts of the southwestern United States but is actually made of cheese. Some of the formations in the background are loosely modeled on the Vasquez Rocks. This wasn't the case for the original Mario Kart: Super Circuit iteration of Cheese Land, which was far more generic because of graphical limitations of the time.

Given that Westworld is both science fiction and Western series, there's the inevitable homage shot, seen near the sand-buried church in Escalante. Westworld has been constructed in accordance with its Western theme, right down the Monument Valley landscape of John Ford movies, so this is likely an In-Universe homage as well.

Secrets. Kirk's Rock was a popular shooting location long before Star Trek. In this 1933 movie, John and his ranch hand are riding through Vasquez Rocks when they see Houser the cattle rustler passing the other way with John's cattle. The cattle are passing right in front of the pointy rocks when they're seen in close-up.

Star Trek: The Original Series:
The Trope Namer; the famous fight in the episode "Arena", takes place here, as mentioned in the description.
Also, this is where Lazarus' timeship is located in "The Alternative Factor".
And where Kirk fought Finnegan in "Shore Leave". The glade scenes were shot at Africa USA Ranch, a former wildlife preserve in nearby Soledad Canyon.
This is where Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and Eleen hide out in "Friday's Child", and where Leonard James Akaar is born.

Homaged in the Doctor Who episode "The Caretaker", which opens with the Doctor and his companion in a Noodle Incident where they've been chained up in the desert to die on an alien planet. A large Vasquez Rocks-like formation is in the background.

CSI: It appeared in “The Descent of Man� as the site where a holy man who called himself “The Holy Steven� was killed. It was a rare non-Murder as he was killed by a tortoise shell dropped by a bird.

Werewolf of London is one of the first movies to use this location, in this case as a stand-in for the Himalayas. It appears in the movie's opening shot, decked out with tents and fake Tibetan prayer flags.
