A type of revisionist Western film that emerged in the mid 1960s (though Jodorowsky is often attributed its fatherhood with 1970’s El Topo). The term was popularized in the mid 90s in a review of Jarmusch's Dead Man. These films commonly explore social, spiritual, religious, mystical, psychedelic, and existential themes through the medium of the Western.

*I've seen a total of three of these films. If you think I've made any mistakes do call me out!
