Our take

Kurt Russell leads a ragtag crew into enemy territory in this bloodthirsty oater from exploitation maestro S. Craig Zahler. Drawing as much on the tropes of the horror film as on those of the western, Bone Tomahawk takes a nightmarish journey into the borderlands between savagery and civilization.
