Pluskylang Great Film overall

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

jonjethro I'll go in for the B movies. But this one just kinda sucks. How do u critique the "B" movie genre. Sometimes a ridiculous monster and laughable plot can be Awsome. But not for this bone eater.

Matt Kracht Jim Wynorski has made some of the absolute worst movies that I've ever seen, and, after struggling to make it through some of the worst-of-the-worst (I hate giving up on a movie halfway through), I swore that I would never again watch another.The problem is that Wynorski uses a wide variety of aliases. I'm convinced that it's because he's trying to trick me into watching his horrible movies. You win again, you bastard. That's another one of your worthless movies that I've watched in its entirety. Every time that you win, I swear that I'm going to memorize all of your aliases, and, just to be safe, keep track of every one of your movies as they're released. I was not vigilant. I got lazy.Enjoy your fleeting victory, Wynorski. I swear Bone Eater shall truly be the last one. I draw the line at Bone Eater. Never again will my senses be assaulted by your horrific writing, directing, or producing. In case there's someone out there who is actually thinking about watching this movie, let my sacrifice be warning enough. Don't make the same mistake that I did.I'm almost tempted to award a second star, out of pity for the washed-up actors (Bruce Boxleitner, Gil Gerard, Walter Koenig, etc), but I urge my fellow reviewers to steel their hearts and award a single star. If we stay strong, we may actually get every one of Wynorski's movies on to the Bottom 100.

Hubert Jassol Since you've got the plot by now, we'll go right to the cast and special effects. There are a slew of old TV stars in this thing and some have aged better than others. Boxleitner has held up pretty well, although his acting is still what it always was, which isn't much. George Koenig (Chekov from the original Star Trek) makes a cameo as the coroner and does his usual capable job. Veronica Hamel looks ghastly! A once beautiful woman, her face could pass for the Nazca Desert in Peru. William Katt's (Greatest American Hero TV series of the 70's) once bright red hair is completely white and he is barely recognizable as the "simple country doctor". The cast also lists Gil Gerard (TV's Buck Rogers), but I'll be danged if I saw him. Unknown Clara Bryant appears as the sheriff's daughter and displays her two magnificent talents. Jesse Janzen plays her love interest, much to the sheriffs disdain. I suspect the sheriff doesn't like him because his eyebrows are just too freaky looking.Special effects, you ask? Two words - highly amusing. The Bone Eater looks like a much larger, bonier and angrier "Crow" of MST3000 fame. He (it?) never really eats any bones, or anything else. He just swipes at his victims and they scream, then disappear in a cloud of dust. I must admit that this is the first movie I've ever seen where 82 people are murdered, yet there is only one sign of blood and that is from a knife fight between the sheriff and an angry Indian.The best, and funniest, effect is when the Bone Eater waves his hands (phalanges, actually) and conjures up a horse made out of dust, then rides his dusty steed to a soundtrack of some really cheesy western style music. Hilarity ensues.All in all, a real bomb. But I give it 2/10 for making me laugh on an otherwise uneventful Saturday afternoon. If you're bored and need a tickle, this one's for you.

srvblooze If you're like me and you occasionally enjoy watching terrible movies (I guess it's kind of like slowing down at a car crash), you can't do better than this! The plot is inane, the special effects are hilarious and the acting is some of the worst you'll ever see! 4 THUMBS DOWN! WOOOHOOOOOOOO!!! Seriously, I have no idea how the director and the "actors" can sleep at night! It's painful, and yet hysterically funny, to watch and I highly recommend it for those who want to punish themselves for something. If you can watch this crap without wincing, you're a better man than I'll ever be! I wonder if the producer of this garbage had any idea what he was getting himself (and his money) into!
