From: dearborn%hyster.DEC@decwrl.ARPA (DTN264-5090) I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the film "Moon Zero Two" produced by Hammer Films of England. It used blatant western themes throughout the film. There were actual cowboys (of sorts) on the moon, along with a saloon. Catherine Schell was one of the stars (back when she was Catherine Von Schell). An awful film.

There is a novel called "The Hawkline Monster (a Gothic Western)" by the late
Richard Brautigan. It isn't really a western, a gothic, or SF, but has some
elements of all three.

From: Douglas M. Olson <dolson@USC-ECLB.ARPA> Sorry, missed this the first time around. My favorite SF 'Western' is John Jake's SIX GUN PLANET. (YES. Its the same John Jakes you're thinking of. He STARTED with SF and did a fine job; other favorites are _Mention My Name in Atlantis_ and _On Wheels_.) Doug (dolson @ eclb.arpa) -------
