Explain to someone who has only seen the splitting dude scene.
did you maybe mean to post Cell Block 99?
The group slowly descend into Hell, going from an idyllic town and passing progressively into more and more hellish territory and terrain. They even are constantly moving downwards towards Sea Level.
In the opening scene a man remarks that the sun is suddenly on the opposite side of where it should be, after him and his partner cross into the territory of the "troglodytes" (demons)
The only truly good man in the cast, while nursing his broken leg, remarks "jesus christ god dammit that hurts" and then says "sorry" for his blasphemy. He's saved.
Before the splitting scene, the other good man the sheriff's deputy remarks quite bluntly "we're in hell"
Also the scene where they have already crossed the threshold, and attempt to pray over their meal but can't quite get it all out.
The religious symbolism of a descent into hell is ripe in the film, and I'm certain it's the entire point.
Did you really think that there are no people on Zig Forums who read Divine Comedy and saw Bone Tomahawk so you could post a bullshit like this?
not a boast, but a fact
its a ripoff of heart of darkness, which is also a ripoff of dante.
>I akchually can tell that there's religious symbolism in this film!!
congratulations on watching your first film, what a smart boy you are
ripoff or not you agree it's a retelling of the same idea
I win
thank you I accept your praise
In Divine Comedy Dante went from Hell to Heaven. Also descending into the hell is an old trope that was milked a lot of times before. Like Apocalypse Now.
do you really think no one can tell you're ESL?
>movie starts good then things turn progressively worse
Does that mean that almost every single film in human history is a retelling of Divine Comedy?
they do emerge from hell back to heaven it's just rushed
find me a single instance of hemmingway ever acknowledging that he is anything other than completely original
:^)
No
maybe

It was at this point that I realized your post was a joke.
lol, this. OP is just a pretentious retard, as usual.
Watch out. He's going to come back and he's really gonna let us have it. He might even say we're from reddit.
you're a dope. descent into the underworld predates dante by 2340582308923409 years
I watched this film with my father because we assumed it was just a western
It’s a subversion of western genre like Blood Meridian
He might even say this thread is a retelling of Divine Comedy
holy keked
that would imply it started well
What? That’s such a stretch. There’s also no similarities between BT and TDC other than heroes going to a bad place with evil creatures
A group of anons slowly descend into shitposting
The only truly good user in the thread, while holdin back his laughter, remarks "Sneed's Seed and Feed" and then says "formerly Chuck's" for his city slicking. He's saved.
It's more of a story about building civilization I think. The main characters are like different male archetypes and the troglodytes they battle are the very basic, savage nature of man. Also not a coincidence that Matthew Fox dies because he is like the noble savage that you need to defeat the plain savages, but who also don't have a place in civilized society. The female they are trying to rescue is what completes the human puzzle and enables the building of society. In Bone Tomahawk they are building the town of Bright Hope, and I even think Patrick Wilson and his wife are building their cabin, as a sort of miniature version of that.
I think you're mostly right
The Widower, and the man who refuses to marry, both die but one is expressed as more virtuous
