Taylor Sheridan Neo-Western Horror Is the Genre Crossover We NeedTaylor Sheridan Neo-Western Horror Is the Genre Crossover We NeedBefore Yellowstone crowned him the king of neo-Western television, and before he took the world by storm in the 2010s with his unofficial American Frontier trilogy, Taylor Sheridan was best known as an actor who appeared in shows like Sons of Anarchy and Veronica Mars. But somewhere near the tail-end of his acting career, Sheridan followed in the footsteps of many great filmmakers - such as Peter Jackson, Sam Raimi, and even Francis Ford Coppola - by helming a horror movie as a first-time director. Now, all these years later, we think Sheridan ought to revisit the genre with a powerful Western-flavored horror that only he could bring to life. There's no denying that Taylor Sheridan is first and foremost Hollywood's resident neo-Western guy. The vast majority of his projects take place (at some point or another) in the modern American West, highlighting contemporary cowboys, lawmen, or outlaws. Be it in Texas or Montana, Sheridan knows how to offer a unique perspective on the genre, whether you think Yellowstone is a bit too melodramatic or not. However, back in 2011, the filmmaker hadn't a single directing job to his name when he was awarded credit for Vile, a low-budget indie horror flick that doubled as a Saw II rip-off. It was the film that not only began his directing career, but it proved how important directorial vision is to a project - and emphasized what can happen when the director does not have that sort of creative control. Although Sheridan has purposely distanced himself from that directorial effort (more on that later), he's the type of writer-director who could thrive within the horror genre if he just gave it the old cowboy try.
