Bone Tomahawk Becomes Award Winner In Spain

sitges_film_fest_2480x3508There is a still a day to go of the Sitges International Film Festival in Spain but they’ve announced the winners of the events awards.

Bone Tomahawk has netted a Best Director gong for S. Craig Zahler.  Who, as luck would have it, is the director.  Funny that :-)

The horror western also took the prize for the José Luis Guarner Critic Award as the best feature film.

A full list of all the winners in all the categories can be found on the official website.

Congratulations to all involved on these first pieces of silverware for the project from everyone here at KM UK.

The movie has been garnering positive comments at every screening it’s done so far.

Mention should be made of the fact that Bone Tomahawk had a budget of only $1.8m and was filmed in just three weeks.  That’s tiny compared to almost every Hollywood movie, and is especially impressive when you consider the cast that it has.  Not only are there some big names in there (Kurt Russell and Matthew Fox to give just two examples) but there are at least six people that could easily claim a large chunk of that money on their own.  Clearly this was a project they really wanted to do.

Sunday? Bone Tomahawk? Tell You What: Telluride

telluride_horror_show_1350x1725Had a tough week?

Has it felt like you’re just constantly going up hill?

Each day another mountain to climb?

Well, take a break from what’s getting you down and head for the hills.  Why not actually climb a mountain?  Colorado’s got a few.  Pick the right one and you could end up in the town of Telluride.

On Sunday we have another screening of S. Craig Zahler’s directorial debut Bone Tomahawk.  Two in a row starting at at 5:30pm on Sunday to close the Telluride Horror Show film festival.

Along side some old favourites (if you like that sort of thing) there are also a load of short films.  All in the horror genre of course.

The Telluride Horror Show website should be able to apprise you of all the necessary.

Bone Tomahawk Puts A Cork In It

cork_film_festival_680x212Bone Tomahawk had a successful weekend at the BFI London Film Festival.

We found out last week that the horror western will be heading to Wales in mid-November.

Just before reaching the Abertoir Film Festival the movie will be overshooting the valleys and landing on the south coast of the Republic Of Ireland.

The 60th running of the Cork Film Festival plays host to Bone Tomahawk in a 6:30pm screening on the 9th of November at the Gate Cinema.  That’s a Monday evening.

Tickets are €10 or less and available via the CFF website.

Thanks to Fate 815 for bringing this one to our attention.

BT’s Sitges Night Stages Start Tomorrow

sitges_film_fest_2480x3508As this post goes to ‘press’ (as in: I click ‘Publish’) Bone Tomahawk will be in the middle of a screening at the BFI London Film Festival.  Its second of the event.

There’s no rest for the wicked, however, because from late tomorrow night it will start the first of three showings at the Sitges International Film Festival in the Spanish town of Sitges.

After midnight late on Monday the horror western movie will be shown at the Tramuntana cinema, which is part of the Hotel Melia facilities.

That is followed up less that 24 hours later at another cinema, the Auditori, at the same hotel.

Another post-midnight screening, this time at Cine El Retiro in Sitges town, happens on Wednesday.

Tickets may still be available (my Spanish is not up to it).  Find details via official website.

bfi_film_fest_756x538Bone Tomahawk has bounced around the USA a lot already.

The film has been shown in them all in the past week or so.

Things are going to change tomorrow with the first of two screenings over the weekend during the British Film Institute London Film Festival.  9:15pm on Saturday and 2:15pm on Sunday to be precise.
