Just watched Forsaken and really liked it. Now I am in the mood for some other modern westerns I may have missed. I've seen open range, magnificent 7, old Henry, and tombstone. Pretty sure I saw 310 to yuma..

What are some others I might have missed? Which ones should I watch next?

The Daily Wire has a western coming out Tuesday. I got a subscription to watch What is a Woman, but I'm also interested in Terror on the Prairie.

I wanted to hate it just because it was new and popular, but you're right.

Don't forget The Shootist.

Seven Samurai and I'm not even joking.

The sheer number of Kurosawa movies remade into Westerns is crazy.

new Billy the Kid series is really good

Modern westerns?
Sorry, can't help.

Go to IMDB and look up Randolph Scott, and Glenn Ford. Anything with them in it should keep you entertained!

The new True Grit, and Hostiles.

Those are the two starting points for modern westerns. The new True Grit is very close to the book, which was a masterpiece for easy reading. Hostiles has excellent acting and depicts just how brutal settlers and native Americans could be towards each other.

There’s other good modern westerns, but most are more typical Hollywood westerns.

Hell on wheels is pretty great.

The new Billy the Kid (2022) series is good.

1883 started out good but turned out to be woke as hell.

Another vote for Old Henry.

And of course Tombstone, it's got that guy from Heat.

Define "modern?"

Because The Searchers and The Outlaw Josey Wales are two of the best ever.
