After horror,  westerns are my favorite type of films. Here's my top ten:

1) The Good,  The Bad and The Ugly
2) The Searchers
3) The Magnificent Seven
4) Silverado
5) Rio Bravo
6) High Plains Drifter
7) Tombstone
8) Winchester '73
9) Fistful Of Dollars
10) Lonesome Dove

and an honorable mention has to go out to my favorite horror/western combo : " Curse Of The Undead"

My dad is a big John Wayne fan, so I got to see a lot of his westerns growing up.  Because of this, I have watched and enjoyed western movies and TV shows.

Silverado

True Grit
Rooster Cogburn
The Cheyenne Social Club
Hannie Cauder
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Hannie Cauder



I enjoyed"Hannie Caulder" quite a lot (my gods, Raquel Welch was gorgeous) but the ending scene (possible spoilers) with the "Preacher" always kind of annoyed me. Outside of that it's a fun movie.

To be honest, the reason I watched the movie was because of Raquel Welch, but I did enjoy the movie.

If nobody minds, i'd like to recommend , what I think is a truly great western:

"Hour Of The Gun" (1967)
-James Garner, Jason Robards

While basically a sequel to "Gunfight At The O.K. Corral",
this film stands by itself as a well made action western.  Anybody who only knows Garner through"Maverick" or "The Rockford Files" will be surprised to to see how he plays a major tough guy, in fact i'd say he was one bad mother fu (shut your mouth! ). All kidding aside, this is a terrific, action packed film. Jason Robards does a superb job playing Doc Holiday and the story and direction are first rate. If you've never seen this film, or it's been a while since you saw it, give yourself a treat and watch it. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
