Jun 13, 2021 · Thoughts on Bone Tomahawk (2015) Hey, this is my first post here! Ok, so recently I decided to watch Bone Tomahawk, a horror/western movie directed by S. Craig Zahler and it was... quite a ride. The story itself is simple, and the movie is just going to point A to point B, with some eventual trouble in the middle.
ADMIN MOD. Bone Tomahawk (2015) .."That" Scene.. First off, if you haven't seen this movie..I'm glad you can still visit caves without a shotgun. But if you're like the rest of us who have seen "that of which cannot be unseen", or, in plain English, Deputy Nick's role as the human wishbone in Bone Tomahawk, you know what I'm talking about.
Aug 28, 2022 · Now you see Bone Tomahawk is a reconstructionist western. It rebuilds the genre, again not realistic, after decades of deconstruction. You see the classical western often viewed Native Americans purely as adversarial creations and not people. Monsters in essence by proxy of racism. This deconstruction made the western less and less palatable ...
Jun 30, 2024 · This movie does a "reverse avatar" on the noble-savage stereotype of Native Americans. Where Avatar gives its protagonists native coded symbols to borrow the concept of humans being honorable environmentalist with connection to their world, Bone Tomahawk codes their antagonists in native symbols to borrow the scalping angry savage that cannot be reasoned with part of the stereotype.
Oct 15, 2020 · The ending of Bone Tomahawk. I just watched Bone Tomahawk, it’s really good, I was scared seeing the 130 minute runtime but it moved at a good pace. The third act was disappointing imo, I expected the rescue party to go into the mountain, see how the cannibals lived, duke it out there. But instead it was just a room (why would they keep their ...
Nov 11, 2021 · Harvicous. ADMIN MOD. Movies most similar to Bone Tomahawk in tone/quality. Period horror has long been my favourite genre, and Bone Tomahawk is just so far above and beyond so many other great period horror movies. Incredibly well made, looks amazing, well acted, truly spooky, doesn't rush, and stays serious and grounded despite the premise.
Jan 29, 2016 · THAT it was Bone Tomahawk is commenting on. That an isolated, forgotten tribe survived but was forced to become the worst of the worst imaginable to do so, ( cannibals, incestuous, extremely violent, cruel,) says so much about the colonialisation of the Americas by the white man, but the fact it was a bone tomahawk - weapons made of bone itself - suggests our violence and means of control is ...
Bone Tomahawk is my go-to example of showing people what acting can do to elevate poor production value and extremely clunky camerawork. And dialogue. It's like they set the scene up with one angle and the action just unexpectedly occurs within that scene. It really makes you feel like anything can happen at any time.
Oct 21, 2020 · Bone Tomahawk is a slow burn across the american desert, as a desperate rescue party haphazardly embarks on a journey after three of their peers were captured by an ominous group of feral natives. The team is made up of a grizzled Sheriff (Kurt Russel), a decrepit old-timer (Richard Jenkins), a cripple (Patrick Wilson) and a trigger-happy gentleman gunslinger (Matthew Fox).
Bone Tomahawk is a great movie first, and a good horror movie second. The handling of tension, the dialogue, the efficient use of character - all top notch. Zahler has a calling card, essentially a compulsion to have at least one hyper graphic act of extreme violence that totally explodes the scale for the rest of the movie.
