Anyone know if there are any? I have a strange urge to see something like this.

hmmm.....
not that I can think of....
Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses 2: The Devil's Rejects is reportedly more of an "extremely violent western" than a horror movie, so maybe this will satisfy your strange craving.  Are you pregnant or somthing?

You know I have always wanted to see or read a horror western myself.   Six shooters and zombies, what a concept!!!  I'm glad I am not alone in this.

"Extremly Violent Western", sounds like somethign for me then. Only western I know of that's close to a horror film is El Topo.

>"Are you pregnant or somthing?"
heh, and no I'm not pregnant...I'm just hungry.

>"Six shooters and zombies"
Yeah, I wish that became reality. I saw some cheap DVD horror movie pack the other day with a picture of a zombie in a cowboy costume, too bad none of the movies in the pack were zombie westerns.

None of these are that great but how about these attempts at horror westerns:

Into The Badlands
Grim Prarie Tales
Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter
Billy the Kid vs Dracula

There are a couple of really gory spaghetti westerns that aren't really horror movies. "Cutthroats Nine" is one I know only by reputation, but its gore and violence seem to be its big selling point. The biggest cult, horror, and gore hound movie fan I know in real life, gushes about this one the way he gushes about his favorite Category III HK movies.

The only suggestions I have are horror movies with western touches set in modern times, but all involve vampires rather than zombies. "Near Dark", the two "Vampires" films, and "From Dusk Til Dawn 1 &2". The third FDTD is set around 1913 during the Mexican Revolution and when writer Ambrose Bierce wandered off to die. Again, vampires not zombies, but it's probably my favorite mix of horror and western.

Zombies and the West has taken the form of the CCG, Doom Town.

What about Brave Star? That had Tex Mex, he was kind of creepy.
