Overview
During a shootout in a saloon, Sheriff Hunt injures a suspicious stranger. The doctor’s assistant, wife of the local foreman, tends to him in prison. That night, the town is attacked and they both disappear—only the arrow of a cannibal tribe is found. Hunt and a few of his men go in search of the prisoner and the foreman’s wife.

Viewing Notes
When I read the comments about Bone Tomahawk coming out of Fantastic Fest 2015, I thought two things. 1. Why are all of these horror folks talking about a western? and 2. That is a fucking rad name for a movie. The latter is self-explanatory. The former was quickly cleared up when I read a tweet from a veteran horror fan who said the “cave” was one of the most gruesomely hard-to-watch things she’d ever seen. That’s enough of an endorsement for me. I avoided all but he most superficial mentions of the film on Twitter and horror blogs. I did check out the trailer (something I sometimes avoid until after i’ve seen a film) because I was just too excited to avoid all contact completely. It just got me more excited. I’m a pretty big fan of gritty westerns. I mean, David Arquette, guys! (i’m kidding. we all know Kurt Russell is the real reason we see anything, right?)
