Hey!  "From Dusk till Dawn 3" is classic Deadlands fare (it takes place in the Old West and has lots of weird things going on).  Especially cool is the Stagecoach robbery.  Check out the guy riding shotgun for an interesting use of hindrances and edges.  Of course the vampires are
pretty cool too, just don't stay for dinner.   }:-)

And while we're on the subject... the very first "Django" movie with Franco Nero will have you Quickdraw, Fannin' the Hammer, and Gatling gun types drooling all over yourselves.  And the music score is great for atmosphere.

Oh yea... don't forget "The Wild Bunch" (Director's Cut on DVD) with William Holden and Ernest Borgnine.  The opening and ending scenes are some of the wildest shootouts I've ever seen!
