Want to know the best Gunfight At The O.K. Corral movies? How about the worst Gunfight At The O.K. Corral movies? Curious about Gunfight At The O.K. Corral domestic box office grosses or which Gunfight At The O.K. Corral movie the biggest hit in worldwide grosses? Need to know which Gunfight At The O.K.

There have been many movies both on the big screen and the little screen that have dealt with the Gunfight At The O.K. Corral. This page looks at the ones that were released in theaters in North America and featured Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. That means you will not find 1934’s Frontier Marshall (it featured characters called Michael Wyatt and Doc Warren) or 1955’s Wichita (it has a Wyatt Earp but no Doc Holliday and no Gunfight At The O.K. Corral).
Drivel part of the page: The setup of this page is a little different than our other pages. Yes you still get a table of stats…..but we also gave each major movie stat their own section. Another new item is the result of our Best Wyatt Earp/Doc Holliday portrayal poll. 20 people were nice enough to provide a ranking of their personal favorite Earp and Holliday.

Just when I think I’ve seen them all a new one pops up
Hey Tom….I think new Gunfight at the O.K. Corral movies will be popping up for a very longtime…thanks for stopping by.
My fave is “Hour of The Gun.” Moody, Garner’s best and sticks closer to the facts.
Hey Edward…..good thoughts on Hour of the Gun. It might not have the notoriety of some of the other movies….but it has a very avid following. I need to re-watch it…as it has been awhile.
Like the movie links. When do you see having all the movies like that?
I like the new format. Nice addition of the movie links. All the stats are here as well as some quality photos.
My favourite movie is Gunfight at the OK Corral for both Earp and Holiday.
I have also seen My Darling Clemintine Hour of the Gun, and Tombstone.
Hey Flora…..well your favorite did pretty well in our poll. 2nd by all counts. So your tally is 4. I am at 5 as is Phil. I have not seen Frontier Marshall, Tombstone: A Town Too Tough To Die and Doc. Thanks for the visit and the comment.
