Hang 'Em Really High
Directed by Danniel Barron
A parody of an old-fashioned western set in contemporary Manhattan, with nods to "Gunsmoke," John Wayne, and Clint Eastwood. Among its humorous updatings of classic western stereotypes, its final showdown takes place on a desolate landfill, and the town prostitute, named Belle, is a black transvestite.
