Bone Tomahawk
« on: January 06, 2016, 08:52:29 PM »
I apologize if this has been brought up before.  I just finished watching the new film Bone Tomahawk on Amazon Prime (free for Prime members).

Absolutely fantastic.

A slightly absurdist dark Old West film w/ surprising elements of several genres.  Wonderfully written and superbly acted.  Only warning: it is incredibly brutal in parts.  Highly recommended.  Huge surprise and very pleased.  The trailer doesn't do it much justice.



I really really recommend checking it out if possible.

Loved it! There are not nearly enough Western/Horror mash-ups. The writer/director S. Craig Zahler has also written several Western novels that are excellent & well worth your time to read.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.

I thought it was absolute garbage. We have a saying round our way...

There's no such thing as a bad Western... just some that's better than others!

'Bone Tomahawk' came close to being the exception that proves the rule!
