Because if I added Westerns it would be a neverending list. I only added The Quick and the Dead because I love Sam Raimi.

Ah, a fellow middle of nowhere fan. I love this trope so much. I've sought out so many movies that take place in desolate deserts and shady small towns. I love the atmosphere of isolated places where nobody can be trusted.
Off the top of my head:
Red Rock West
Scenic Route
A Simple Plan
Revenge (2017)
Retroactive (1997)
Tremors
U-Turn
From Dusk Till Dawn
The Dark Backward
No Country For Old Men
The Quick and the Dead
The Music of Chance
Frailty
Rubin and Ed
Not all of these are fully set in deserts/small towns, but they have the same lonely atmosphere. Hope this helps!

Yeah Breakdown is one of my favorites but it's already mentioned in the OP.
