one of the recent movies that goes on my list of worst westerns is "Seraphim Falls". Two very good actors in a really bad movie (IMO of course).
I'll second that motion ten thousand percent, especially the really bad movie part.

I would like to nominate Dancing with Wolves
Read my post about subjective opinions, Mike. I'd be willing to bet that your opinion about "Dancing With Wolves" is so far down the minority ladder that you're never going to get to the top. -
Although "The Villain" has a high-dollar cast (Kirk Douglas, Ann Margret, Arnold the Governator), it belongs on the list of worst westerns???????????, IMO.

Everybody in this farce with the exception of Slim Pickens.

It's true that the film "McKenna's Gold" wasn't a very good movie but the story itself is fascinating. I have a book titled "Coronado"s Children" by J. Frank Dobie which recounts legends and tales of lost mines and buried treasures in the old West. McKenna's Gold is in that book and supposedly is about a lost canyon of gold somewhere in northwest New Mexico. Really a fascinating story. I'm kind of a romantic and when I was much younger, daydreamed of going to look for some of those lost gold mines.After thinking about it for awhile, I decided I'd made a mistake in my reference to "McKenna's Gold", so I did some research. The actual name for the lost canyon of gold (upon which the movie was based) was "The Lost Adams Diggings" and it wasn't in Dobie's book "Coronado's Children" but in his similar book "Apache Gold and Yacqui Silver". This gives some of the background concerning the "Lost Adams Diggings".

McKenna's Gold starring Gregory Peck. Peck did a great job of acting but it had a terrible story line to it i thought.[snapback]14113[/snapback]
