An amusing spoof of the good 'ole westerns back in the halcyon days when all the cliches were held up as icons, this parody by Hugh Wilson works best for savvy audiences. Rex O'Herlihan (Tom Berenger) is a singing cowboy with a wardrobe straight out of the Hollywood westerns of the '40s -- he worships his horse, and has a trusty sidekick too.

Its one-note joke wore thin for me mighty soon.
If you've never seen this film but like Westerns you really should. It's a film that grows on you and has been an inside joke for a group of friends for many years. Lots of gags spoofing the old 1930's and 60's westerns. A bit slow in some parts but the cast really does a great job. On Wildfire on!
December 12, 2011Great Parody of the classic B westerns, Tom Berringer, G.W. Bailey, Andy Griffith, and Mary Lou Henner, A sleeper but worth it!
