Weird West (or Weird Western) is a genre of fiction that uses the Wild West period of American History as a foundation and then adds fantasy/supernatural elements to it. So stories where gunslingers encounter zombies, vampires, demons, robots, or any other creatures that wouldn't otherwise be present in a standard Western.

8 books, one short story, and one kids book... enveloping one weird Western tale in a world that has moved on.

Idris Elba was such an intriguing choice for Roland, and he did a good job. Too bad the movie sucked.

He would have kicked 12 kinds of ass as Cort in a faithful adaptation.
