This movie shows that you can do entertainment even with a small budget without getting ridiculously
+ ambitious actors
+ straight-line film script
+ cgi-effects did not exaggerate and don't look to artificial
+ "evil dead" inspired zombie make up an creature behavior
- not so much gore as applied on the cover
This is and remains a "b movie" - but give the movie a chance, there are a lots worse than this.
... AND - as I like it - no happy end.
Fine piece of independent work.

My fascination with the western has lead me to watch many strange variants, and this one falls safely in the strange category. Originally known as "The Dead and Damned" the title was clearly changed to cash in on the Spielberg blockbuster "Cowboys and Aliens". This one was made with a somewhat smaller budget than Spielberg is accustomed to work with, which becomes apparent from the films opening scenes. It is reminiscent of films like "Billy the Kid vs Dracula"(65) and Jesse James meets Frankensteins Daughter"(66). I hope they were both very happy together! So the horror western is not a new genre. Once you accept the poor production values and the title which lets you know what you are in for, it was to my great surprise not all that bad.
The cast have a lot of fun dressing up as a very colourful bunch of zombies, and there are a lot of laughs to be had along the way, together with surprisingly good cinematography on the odd occasion. It is supposed to be set in 1849, although that looked a bit suspect, and in any case I dont suppose it matters a jot anyway. In a Coen brothers touch, the totally random German speaking bounty hunter certainly made me laugh out loud, as did the films hilarious ending, so it was definitely not all bad. Judging from the lack of other reviews it seems to have slipped under the radar, which is not surprising I suppose. In the film a dodgy looking meteor is taken into a western town where it infects all the inhabitants who turn into zombies. Enter a bounty hunter, an Indian and a pretty girl. This pretty girl together with a couple of other well endowed chums, seem to have been included simply to show off their ample feminine charms. This may be of interest to some male viewers! Then just let mayhem begin and hey presto you have a movie. John Ford may be turning in his grave, but no doubt Ed Wood will be having a quiet chuckle to himself. I will now put my credibility as an Amazon reviewer on the line by awarding this film 2.7 stars rounded up to three generous stars. Well it is a western after all!

Absolutely no way is this Deadwood with zombies! It doesn't have great effects or a boat load of gore!
Imagine a group of friends got together and decided to make a home movie at a wild west re-enactment site and there you have it! The 'hero' almost looks rugged because he's unshaven in a Clint Eastwood stylee but he speaks with a girls voice and obviously never handled firearms before!
I love zombie films and I love cowboy films. Unfortunately while it was a good idea, it was very bad. Not entertainingly bad, just bad.
A big sorry to the film makers. If you've made this film to have a laugh with your mates then that's great but look at the film Colin if you want to see a tiny budget zombie film done well.

Worst film Ive ever seen
Terrible. Low budget tack. Although my boyfriend, who is zombie mad, says the worse the film the better, so if u like zombies try it.

Budget Horror
It was a cheap budget film but weirdly watchable. Should have been called "Cowboy & Zombies" (They seemed to change the & to a vs for marketing purposes). Read more

Entertaining and fun, if a bit silly
There's little doubt that Cowboys & Zombies was made on the cheap, but it actually does pretty well with its very limited resources, especially for a period film. Read more
