KILL ME AGAIN filming locations



CREDITS
KILL ME AGAIN, 1989
dir: John Dahl

Val Kilmer
Joanne Whalley
Michael Madsen
John Dahlís multiple-cross film noir, with debt-ridden PI Jack Andrews (Val Kilmer) helping femme fatale Fay Forrester (Joanne Whalley) fake her own death. Where else could it be set but the gambling state of Nevada?

The opening robbery is at Winnemucca, on I-80 in the north of the state. Itís in Reno (with the familiar ëBiggest Little City in the Worldí sign across its main street) that Jack Andrews has his office.

Fay fetches up at the ever-popular Las Vegas Hilton, 3000 Paradise Road (this is also where Robert Redford made that Indecent Proposal and also featured as Willard Whyteís 'Whyte House' in Bond movie Diamonds Are Forever).

Jack and Fay set off for Lake Mead, where a second death is faked. Mead is the huge artificial lake created when the Colorado River was blocked up by the Hoover Dam.

The getaway 'Echo Bay Motel' is Lake Mead Lodge, 322 Lakeshore Road, Boulder City on Lake Meadís northwest shore.

(Valley of Fire)  

Climax in the wilds: Valley of Fire, Nevada


You can see the wild red sandstone landscapes forming the backdrop to the last part of the movie in nearby Valley of Fire State Park, about 50 miles northwest of Las Vegas, off Route 169, a spectacular location, seen also in Star Trek Generations.
