Bone Tomahawk is an amazing hybridisation of the best of Horror movies and Westerns. As an extremely rare blend of both genres, it is a really peculiar and unique movie in the best way possible. Directing is really outstanding. The quartet of actors deliver performances that are indubitably in the ranks of their bests. Photography is really great. The minimalistic atmosphere and the progressive "slow-burn" pacing make the relationships between the main cast particularly endearing (plus the dialogues are really well-written and the interactions between the characters are particularly visceral and real). Fans of both genres will be more than satisfied. Note of caution: the movie might be considered the opposite of PC (for the sake of a certain kind of "historical realism"). It is also of course really (really) gruesome in some moments. Still, it is not at all a deterrent IF you like the two genres, as the codes of both are respected in a clinical manner, and masterfully blended.

The western and cannibal genres combined with excellent results. Good character building in the slower parts of the movie ensure that when the action heats up you really care for them.

A slow burn without much music .. Great characters in a calm western, with some gruesome & disturbing imagery near the end (western-only fans,take note!) .. A nice genre-mix for the fans of both!

Decent movie just really slow. Some really gruesome scenes that make the movie worth watching. I watched this after seeing the director’s other film, Brawl in Cell Block 99, you can really see the type of movies he is trying to make. Not my favorite but I'll keep an eye out for what he does next.

_**Slow-burn Indie Western with a quality cast builds to a potent climax**_

In the 1890s, four men in the Southwest—a sheriff (Kurt Russell), his aged deputy (Richard Jenkins), a gunslinger (Matthew Fox) and a wounded cowboy foreman (Patrick Wilson)—set out to bring back captives kidnapped by More

It's sure to be a bone of contention...

Written and directed by S. Craig Zahler, Bone Tomahawk stars Kurt Russell, Patrick Wilson, Matthew Fox, Richard Jenkins and Lili Simmons. Music is by Zahler and Jeff Herriott and cinematography by Benji Bakshi.

Ah, yes, the horror western hybrid, a most More

> Meet the most savage people of the American native.

This was one of the three western films I've watched back to back recently. The other two were 'The Salvation' and 'The Homesman'. They all were totally different from each other and I enjoyed them a lot. I did not know what this title means, More

Fugly.

There were so many things to dislike, hate, and/or projectile-vomit from this ghastly horror that I am a little embarrassed about how I couldn't wait to grab some alone time to watch Bone Tomahawk. This is a gorge-suppressingly awful movie that is too long, more tedious than suspenseful More
