Gallowwalkers is a 2012 direct-to-video horror, western & sci-fi film staring Wesley Snipes

My favorite section of Tubi is one dedicated to black films. Not just from the same three directors or the same drama, urban fiction and slave flicks that Hollywood loves to push. There's westerns, science fiction, fantasy and all kinds of things. One such film is Gallowwalkers.

The plot follows Aman as he feuds with a group of Gallowwalkers. The Gallowwalkers are people who died, but were resurrected. They require fresh skin every 1-2 weeks because their flesh rots. They can last longer if they choose something like lizard skin. In the past Amen's wife was raped by the gang. Aman murdered them all but was later killed. His mother made a pact with a demon to bring him back to life. Anyone he kills, will come back as a Gallowwalker; someone who can't die unless their brain is destroyed or their head is removed from their body. Along the way Aman recruits an outlaw named Fabulos to assist him. I would tell you more, but it's a short film. It's a western, so there isn't a ton of plot. A very simple revenge film.
