2015s Western horror Bone Tomahawk features a brutally dark depiction of the Old West, but the movies twists and turns arent clearly explained before the grim ending. Bone Tomahawk is the directorial debut of S. Craig Zahler, who went on to direct Brawl in Cell Block 99 and Dragged Across Concrete. Bone Tomahawk divided critics upon release, earning praise for its unflinching brutality but criticism for its questionable representation. Earning less than $500,000 at the box office on a budget of $1.8 million, Bone Tomahawk is one of many Western box office bombs from the early decades of the 21st century.
