Dead Outlaw (2025)
MusicDocumentaryHistoryWesternComedy
In the wild West, Elmer McCurdy dies after a failed robbery, but death is only the start of his strange journey. His body is sold, displayed, and passed from one carnival to another, mistaken for a prop for decades. A darkly funny, haunting tale of a man who became more famous dead than alive.
