Bone Tomahawk (2015, Kurt Russell western)
 
http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...OSmUxRAZT7-oPr

I'm always game for Kurt Russell in a western. That alone is worth me buying a ticket. Has a 78% on RT, 7 Fresh and 2 Rotten.

This is gonna be way better than Hateful Eight. Unless released NC-17 I'd wait for the unrated(excessive gore and violence) BD.

I had tickets to a screening last week with the director and Matthew Fox doing Q&A, but couldn't make it. :(

So good. Everyone was great in it. Especially Jenkins and Fox.
Slow pace but never boring. Very brutal in parts.
Highly recommended.

Rental: It's $6.99 on Vudu and $3.99/$4.99 on Amazon, I think the Amazon one is a misprice that will go up tomorrow.

I can't fucking believe this didn't get a major push. I was off work today and watched it from Amazon. I seriously can't recommend this movie enough. Wow...just wow.

Edit. I only paid $4.99 for HD.

Saw it earlier as well. Surprised how much I was laughing, not in a bad way, the first 2/3 of the film. Great banter. Takes a while to get there, but poor Nick.

Thumbs up on this.

I'm trying to not read spoilers on this one but I just started watching this and it's pretty cool. Yeah, the dialogue is killing me, because it's so fucking funny, witty, and clever.

It's no surprise - I looked up the writer/director and he's a novelist that has written several westerns.

I'm impressed with how much they got done on such a minimal budget.

Watched this earlier this evening. Dug it quite a bit. Poor Nick indeed, that was a gnarly death. I barely recognized Richard Jenkins. I know he's old, but they made him look like he was 75-80.

I'll probably pick it up on Blu.

Didn't help that was seemingly making a Paul Giamatti impression the whole movie :D

What? Jesus.

I guess I can believe that based on what the trailer shows.

You can get an awful lot of mileage out do a budget, especially in the digital age.

bought this. hopefully watch it later tonight!

The movie was great. I'll definitely be getting the BD. I was surprised at how ultra violent it was for being a micro-budget flick. They did well on the make-up and prosthetic special effects. It's going on my Top-10 list of the year.

It's also playing in limited release. The Burbank AMC Towncenter is playing it. FYI

For such a big company with so much renowned technology behind them, it's amazing how many mistakes they make on their VOD service.

No way I'm paying that for a rental. I'll wait 28 days and get it from Redbox for an actually reasonable price for a rental.

$6.99 is the standard rental price for the "Same Day as Theater" rentals -- their excuse being it's cheaper than a theater ticket and multiple people can watch, it'll be out on blu-ray/dvd to rent in a few months so that's the trade off. That said, $4.99 for the standard rental is a bit steep. This comes out on Blu-ray on December 29th.

$6.99 as opposed to waiting for possibly the new year (in terms of delivery or what not) is more than a fair trade off. Especially since the film is great.
