Movies filmed in Las Vegas




Many silent Western films were made in and around Las Vegas, especially in the years 1913-1915, including a number that starred Tom Mix. In the 1969 the movie Easy Rider, Las Vegas, NM is the town where the two bikers ride behind a parade, are arrested for “parading without a permit,” and meet Jack Nicholson’s character in jail. The town name can be seen in the background in one scene during this part of the movie.

Las Vegas was the filming location for parts of the 1978 movie Convoy, a film about truck drivers inspired by the 1975 song of the same name. Parts of the 1982 made-for-TV film The Ballad of Gregorio Cortez were filmed in and around Las Vegas.

Las Vegas was the real-world town used to represent a fictional setting of Calumet, Colorado in John Milius’ 1984 film Red Dawn. As of 2005, many of the buildings and structures seen in the film remain.

Parts of the 1994 movie Speechless, with Geena Davis and Michael Keaton, about a fictional New Mexico senatorial campaign, were filmed in Las Vegas.

Several scenes in the 1998 film John Carpenter’s Vampires were filmed on the plaza. The Hi-Lo Country and All the Pretty Horses (film), released in 1998 and 2000 respectively, were almost entirely shot here. In the 2001 documentary Freedom Downtime, a cross-country road trip to Las Vegas, Nevada ends up in Las Vegas, New Mexico by mistake.

In 2006, the film Fanboys used Las Vegas as one of its film locations. The film is about a dying Star Wars fan and will be released in 2008. The 2006 movie The Astronaut Farmer was also filmed here.

Most Recently the Coen brothers’ No Country for Old Men (film) (2007), was filmed here.

The 2010 film Due Date starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifinakis was partly filmed in Las Vegas, and was used as a fake border crossing into Mexico.

Scenes for the 2011 film Paul starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost with Kristen Wiig, Jason Bateman, Bill Hader, Seth Rogan, Joe Lo Truglio and Sigourney Weaver, were filmed in and around Las Vegas.

The 2012 A&E TV Series Longmire starring Robert Taylor and Katee Sackhoff and set in Wyoming is being filmed in Las Vegas.[11]
