The Last Stand (2013)

Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Forest Whitaker, Johnny Knoxville

In the 2013 movie The Last Stand, Belen’s name is changed to “Summerton Junction” and is set in Arizona, not New Mexico.
The movie was filmed primarily at the intersection of Becker Avenue and Second Street. Belen’s two historic hotels — the Belen Hotel and Central Hotel — are featured prominently in the film, with the Belen Hotel renamed as the Bell Hotel and with Schwarzenegger jumping off the rooftop of the Central Hotel. E. Garcia Grocery, also known for selling Eva’s Chile, was converted to an antique store called “Salazar’s.”
Belen’s iconic water tower was left in place for the film, but instead of being surrounded by buildings, like in real Belen, it is surrounded by a cornfield in Summerton Junction. Belen’s old city hall makes an appearance in the film as the sheriff’s office and county jail, using real jail cells from when old city hall included a police station and jail.

Belen High School students are featured in the opening scene as Summerton Junction celebrates the local football team. Summerton Junction and Belen have the same mascot, an eagle.
