Bone Tomahawk

Saw it last night on Amazon. Some parts are real gory...but overall worth seeing. Kurt Russell did a good job as the Sheriff.

My wife bought this movie for me as we enjoy a good western, it was a real wtf moment when it took a turn for the worse.

I imagine if we had a camera on us, our mouths would have been open in shock!

Another movie about Troglodytes...except they are vegetarians, as opposed to the ones in Bone Tomahawk!
It's also playing on Amazon.

As I mentioned earlier, it for sure is a gory movie. Maybe the up close and personal nature is why some of you were more freaked by it. But consider the wholesale killing in any of the Terminator movies or Rambo and it is not that violent.

I guess killing someone with a gun is different than cutting them up.

When it was done it was not a movie I thought I will see that one again! I have seen Blazing Saddles dozens of times and still love it. Bone Tomahawk is a one and done for me. I will watch Blazing Saddles again.

I didn't find it that gory.

Really, for a "horror" movie I thought it was the opposite. There's maybe 60 seconds of gore out of a 2 hour movie. Not a ton of killings and most are done quickly. Instead of being a gory horror movie, IMO it's more of a suspense movie. Long periods of buildup where no "action" is happening.

*SPOILER ALERT*

All in all I thought it was an ok movie. Some of the acting and script, esp. in the beginning, wasn't the greatest. And you couldn't make a movie any more predictable or cliche.

- The advance group gets captured.
- The guy left behind for dead comes back to save them.
- The sheriff dies a heroic death while saving the town.
- Husband and wife are reunited and live happily ever after.

But, oddly, I found the general *lack* of violence in the movie to be it's greatest asset. It's a "slow build" kind of movie that I generally like.

I liked it, didn't think it was disturbing. Hostel, was disturbing for me.

the most troubling movie (for me) was that heroin flick with jennifer connoly..

i had to turn it off..and it wasnt even scary.

Watched it last night. Was expecting it to be much worse based on this thread and other reviews I read. Pretty good move though.

Pulled off a double last night, watched Room too, another good one.
