Colorado has never looked more beautiful… or more terrifying. The Shining wasn’t filmed at the Stanley Hotel, but Stephen King’s stay there inspired one of the most iconic horror stories ever written. And honestly? One walk through those halls and you get it. Isolated mountain roads. Endless snow. A hotel with a mind of its own. Few films have shaped the horror genre quite like The Shining — and we’re thrilled to feature it during the Colorado 150 Film Festival at Lulu’s Downtown. Come for the movie. Try not to leave saying “redrum” on the drive home.

About the Colorado 150 Film Festival

Colorado turns 150 this year — and we’re marking it with the biggest cinematic celebration the state has ever seen. 150 films. 150 screenings. Historic venues from the mountains to the plains. Watched together, in person, the way movies are meant to be seen.

The CO150 Film Festival is a collection of the best cinema ever made in Colorado, about Colorado, or by Coloradans — past and present. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. And it’s a genuinely good excuse to get off the couch.
