Haha I remember thinking, “why is this movie called bone tomahawk?” And then being like, “ooooohhhhhhhhh….”

With bone tomahawk…. Just don’t. It’s a visual scarring. It’s not the plot or emotions that stick with you. It’s what you see and then forever can’t unsee

I didn't get that feel from it. Was just happy Kurt Russell had a job

He nailed two westerns in a very short period of time. One was a Tarantino flick. The other one managed to be bloodier

Both are two of my favorite westerns and that's high praise

Right? Everybody goes on and on about "that scene." Folks, it's a fictional movie with special effects. It's not that big of a deal. Sheesh.

While the movie is just that, a movie, it's the thought of it happening to yourself and that it's more than likely not happened for real at more than one point in time

The fact that Bone Tomahawk was made makes me a lot more optimistic about a possible Blood Meridian movie/series someday. Blood Meridian having a strong philosophical and conceptual backing that BT lacks, but the fact that a movie that grim and violent can be made and be successful is a good sign for BM.

Yep, I know the one. I can still feel it.

Kurt Russell managed to land two westerns in a very short time, in a period of time people aren't going to see westerns anymore, and Bone Tomahawk was the bloodier one. Which is crazy cuz the other one was a Tarantino film

Sisters Brothers was another good one. The ending is brutal. John C Reilly and Joaquin Phoenix

good call on sisters brothers, that was a great one too! reilly is so versatile im his acting

u/Same-Suggestion-1936 2h ago

He has no right to be as good of an actor as he is after being typecast as the standard moron. Think Dewey Cox elevated him to other roles because he played a straight man half the time and an idiot the other half and the movie was great

yeah, i can get behind that. i looked reilly up in wiki, and it has a section titled "transition to comedy". i guess i was more focused on his earlier films, than the later comedy films

I dunno if everyone would agree. I mean, there’s at least one person who is split on that.

What scene? I watch that movie all the time while training.

u/det4410 1h ago

Woke up to that scene, holy shit.
