10. Bone Tomahawk
Bone Tomahawk is a traditional western to its core. The archetypes and themes are all present: bandits, savage natives, a virtuous sheriff, his loyal backup deputy, a stalwart cowboy, a fancy gentleman and a damsel in distress. The film is simply shot. The lighting is dark and natural looking. There is very little musical score, and the combination of the straightforward cinematography and natural soundscapes make the experience an immersive one. Like the greatest films, there comes a moment very early in the picture when you forget that you’re watching well known actors play out a fiction.
