Splattercast 93: High Plains Podcasters
August 25th, 2008 by MaT
This week, Deejay, Jeff and I ride into the town of Hell with our spurs shiny, our six-shooters loaded, and our hats low upon our brows. We’re taking on Horror Westerns, ranging from the 1930’s through the present day. Our spotlight focuse on, perhaps, the best horror western: High Plains Drifter. So saddle up and join us as we tour dusty, tumbleweed filled towns of terror…
p.s. This episode is a little longer than most. I cut out 12 minutes and it’s still over an hour long ![]()

Hell yeah, ‘High Plains Drifter’! One of the last great mystical westerns.

What do you call a cowboy with no legs?
A low down bum.

Remember the solider with no legs in ‘The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly’? One of my favorite lines is when Lee Van Cleef says to him “Thanks…half soldier.”

By the way, I once saw SUNDOWN - THE VAMPIRE IN RETREAT. I recall I may have even written here that it’s supposed to come out on DVD but I haven’t heard anything.

Here are horror westerns as categorized by Amazon. There are several from Full Moon that I’m familiar with but never bothered to see. There does seem to be quite a few MaT.

Great cast this week.
I never even considered the man with no name to be anything toher than a lone avenger. Worth a re-watch to see what else I can pick out now.
I was going to suggest to you guys about BloodRayne 2 for the cast. I would never call it a great movie, but I kinda liked it and fits the content for the cast.
Of course, it probably would’ve been a better movie from the get-go if it had nothing to do with BloodRayne….because it doesn’t
