Bone Tomakawk. Kurt Russell's best fucking movie. Ever.

So I turned this on last night figuring it'd be terrible and that I'd watch a few minutes and bail. It was described as a Kurt Russell western/horror movie but apparently it was deemed straight to video quality and I did not expect much. Bummer. I ended up sitting there with my eyes glued to the screen for over 2 hours. It's got a bit of a slow pace so if you're one of those people who needs an explosion or a car chase every 5 minutes, this ain't for you. The first 3/4 is about the thought it provokes. "What would I do here?" kinda stuff. Turn it on and hang in there.

Without giving any spoilers away; the end of the movie is seriously, seriously, seriously fucked up. First movie since 'Aftershock' that's bothered me to the point where I was actually scared, nauseous and nervous. I woke up this morning still freaked out...and here's why;

SPOILER-ISH - do not read below until after you've seen it.

As I sat there thinking 'thank god I don't live in that era' to make myself feel better, it occurred to me that we actually do. AND WORSE. The things at the end of the movie are for all intents and purposes Muslims. The shit that happens in Bone Tomahawk happens all day, every day in an ISIS camp somewhere. Sure, they may not eat the infidels afterward, but what fucking difference does it make? They kill you the same barbaric ways, are equally unreasonable, are just as depraved morally and just as organized and determined. The more I thought about it; we ARE living in the time of Bone Tomahawk only the Troglodytes have the support of the media, the UN, have access to modern transportation and have gotten smarter about their tactics. They don't even need the whistles anymore; now they have cellphones.

Ultimately I found Bone Tomahawk less a horror movie and more of a cautionary tale about Islam.

Needless to say, I may never sleep again.
