Nope, it's a one and only. If you don't like westerns, this humor probably won't appeal to you- it's like the Scary Movie of westerns...except it's smart...and, well, funny.

My suggestion: Watch a bunch of classic westerns (The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly, Once Upon A Time in the West, Shane, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) and then watch this.
