Great triumph at the 2015 Sitges Festival in which it won the award for best director . This one mixes two genres : Western and Terror to tell the story of a gang that will try to find some kidnapped and rescue them from the clutches of some trogolodite cannibals who have unexpectedly taken them . The picture turns out to be an exhilarating experience with many memorable , disturbing sequences , including a thrilling finale . The best scenes deal with the enjoyable relationships among the unfortunate team whose members have to face off the cannibal indians attacking here and there . Here stands out a nice cast giving decent interpretation , such as : Kurt Russell, Patrick Wilson, Matthew Fox, Richard Jenkins , Lili Simmons . And brief appearances from Sid Haig, James Tolkan, Sean Young , Michael Paré and Kathryn Morris.
The motion picture was compellinglywritten and directed by S. Craig Zahler . Craig is a western expert , in fact he is the author of the western novel A Congregation of Jackals, which was nominated for both major western writing awards, The Spur and The Peacemaker. And his dark western script The Brigands of Rattleborge won the #1 top position on the Black List for best unproduced screenplay. Zahler is a prestigious writer , such as The Incident, Puppet Master : The Littlest Reich , Dragged Across Concrete , Brawl in Cell Block 99 and Bone Tomahawk . His films usually begin grounded in the real-world and slowly transform into surrealistic tales with hyper-stylized depictions of violence. Often works with Don Johnson, Udo Kier, Jennifer Carpenter, Fred Melamed, and Vince Vaughn ; per Johnson, the group refer to themselves as "The Zahler Players". And he has directed some nice films such as Dragged Across Concrete (2018) , Brawl in Cell Block 99 (2017) and this Bone Tomahawk (2015). Rating : 6.5/10 . Worthwhile watching for terror and western fans. The unusual subject and offbeat gory scenes in a western making this a recipe not for all tastes.
