When you see a title like Alien Outlaw, you know to expect one thing: a heavy focus on rural gunfighting shows and the agencies that book them to regional fairs. What's that? You expect some quantity of alien outlaw activity? Well, there is some of that, sure, a small amount. But surely the next thing you expect is a healthy dose of elderly whipmaster Lash LaRue, sort of wandering around the set and shouting things at other characters? And that he'll be shirtless at some point? Okay, good, glad we're on the same page there at least.

When last we saw Lash LaRue he was fighting ancient Native American zombies over a sacred rental property in The Dark Power. This time he and his protégé, the young pantsless gunfighting phenom Jesse Jamison, are defending a tiny mountain community from alien outlaws - no, that's not a typo, despite the title Alien Outlaw there are actually multiple alien outlaws in this movie. It's also not entirely clear that they're outlaws, and it's even less clear why they came to Earth or what their plans are at any point in the story. But one thing's for sure: they love old-timey Wild West gunfights! Because okay, why not!

Homemade Predator costumes, Lash LaRue AND his fat hillbilly sidekick buddy from The Dark Power, an alien killed with a fishing hook, what more could anyone ask for? For Lash to use the whipping talent that made him famous at some point in the movie, maybe? Good luck with that! It's time for befuddlement and laughter, join Mike, Kevin and Bill for Alien Outlaw!

Is this as much of a Western as I think it is?

You have to watch and find out, like the rest of us. mwa-hahahaha!

Westerns are just so goddamn boring! And you'd think adding aliens to it would spice it up, but all that does is cheapen what could otherwise be something interesting.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

You've just watched the wrong westerns. Check out Stagecoach some time.

No. I just have no interest in that period of history, or any of the concerns of the people in that part of the country at the time.

I promise you, I had that exact opinion until about a year ago. Maybe even more so, being not American.

I've seen the stuff you manage to sit through in the 'just watched' thread, and I am 100% that you just haven't seen the right westerns.

I still don't believe you, Grug.

As for this  movie, well to be fair it was not in any way a Western. It was still, however, absolutely insufferable.

[Edward J Grug III]

I still don't believe you, Grug.

That's OK! Maybe one day you will stumble upon one.

My wife and I are shocked at how much we have grown to love Westerns.

If you like film noir at all, there is a surprising amount of noir-westerns too.

"Spaghetti Westerns" are great! 

I liked Alien Outlaw.  Horrible movie, but great riffing!

SOME are.

Well, since we're going off topic, let's go all the way.  Which ones do you like? I like the "big three"- The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,  A Fistful of Dollars, and, "For a Few Dollars More."  Eli Wallach, Clint Eastwood, and yes, the man himself, Lee Van Cleef.

Yep, those are the best of them!

And there is the Wild Bunch. Another great western. Contains no pasta though.
