Well I am trying to stay in the horror genre mostly with blend of medieval/fantasy and/or western. I own Ravenous (western horror, dark comedy) and Army of of Darkness.

My two favorite horror westerns would have to be Billy The Kid Vs Dracula and Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter. Yes, they may be silly movies but they are still fun to watch every once in awhile.
From Dusk Til Dawn 3: Hangman's Daughter is a enjoyable horror western as is Grim Prairie Tales. I almost forgot about Curse of the Undead from 1959.
I have seen the preview trailer for Legend of the Phantom Rider, which is supposed to be a supernatural western. Robert McRay not only co-worte the movie but also stars as two characters, one bad (Blade) and one good (Pelgidium). I have yet to see it and the reviews that I have read makes it sound so bad that I just have to watch it. Also, seeing Pelgidium in the previews reminded me of Jonax Hex since half of his face is scarred.
The only horror medieval fantasy movie that immediately come to my mind is The Company of Wolves.

6-String Samurai: Rock and Roll/Apocalyptic/weird stuff (More a "theme" movie than a "plot" movie).

Might High Plains Drifter fit western/horror? It is a spagheti western with horror influences.

Shame on you all for forgetting the most awesome crossover flick of all time!!!! Big Trouble in Little China mixed martial arts with horror and comedy for good measure! My favorite movie of all time. Some of the best quotes come from this little gem.
For better or worse though, Sci-Fi channel shows some cross genre movies now and then. I think this weeks foray is called Bloodsuckers. It's something about intergalactic vampire hunters. Sounds hokey, but I'm in. I'm with you on the watching a LOT of bad movies barsoomcore. But I think what I love the most about watching so many movies is that there is usually one good line or character in just about every movie I've ever seen. If there's not, then I just block the movie completely out of my mind. To me, it's not a matter of lowering my expectations, but rather not letting myself be close-minded about movies. Not every movie is gonna be a masterpiece, but most are entertaining.
Another good crossover was a war/horror movie called "The Keep" done in the 80's.
Brotherhood of the Wolf mixed horror and martial arts pretty well and is worth a watch if not already viewed by some of you here.
FWIW would label High Plains Drifter as more of a ghost story. No real horror directly involved in this flick, but (like so many of Clint's characters around this time) it hinted that he had come back from the dead for revenge.

It's really stretching the definition of "horror", but Missing, with Tommy Lee Jones and Cate Blanchett and directed by Opie Cunningham, is sort of a western-horror movie (at least what the back of the blurb on the box implies).

Highlander 2.
Sci-fi meets Swashbuckling.
And Horror. Can't forget the horror inflicted on those watching it.
One of the few films so horrifying most people who see it refuse to admit its very existence.
