Maybe it’s the thin air.
Telluride is at over 2,500m (8,200ft) elevation above sea level, up in the mountains of south west Colorado. And, it’s in a deep, narrow valley too. There’s lots of mountain left above the town.
For the sixth time Telluride is holding a horror themed film festival over a long weekend, starting on Friday the 16th of October.
The Telluride Horror Show is a relatively new addition to the social calendar, they’ve had a regular film festival since the mid-70s.
A back-to-back showing (the first starts at 5:30pm) at the Nugget Theatre of Bone Tomahawk closes the event on Sunday night. Just how many more festivals can this movie close?
The festival comprises of another 20 feature films, some of them from outside the US, most of them quite new. There are a couple of classics in the mix too: The Nightmare Before Christmas and The Return Of The Living Dead.
There are also nearly 50 short films, again from all over the world, shown in various themed blocks.
All the details, including for tickets, can be found on the official website.
