New Mexicans Urged to Stay Home, Watch Movies, and Support Local Businesses with Takeout

SANTA FE, NM – Ahead of this Halloween weekend, the New Mexico Film Office has released a list of Halloween themed productions shot in New Mexico. The list is composed of horror, thriller, mystery, and post-apocalyptic films and television shows produced all across the Land of Enchantment.
