Bonehill Road

This film is a roller coaster ride with twists & turns, with an added big touch of gore. Great performances from Eli DeGeer who plays a woman escaping from one horror to another, Douglas Epps plays well a character that will send chills up your spine, scream queen Dilynn Fawn Harvey proves once again that her star is about to take flight big time, Ana Rojas-Plumberg is superb also, watch out for horror legend Linnea Quigley too!. Directed by horror king of gore Todd Sheets, the direction is slick with heart pounding suspense, the special effects are amazing old school effects, which makes the whole thing look realistic. I enjoyed this film, and I hope Bonehill Road 2 arrives soon, I recommend this film 100%!

If I could give this movie no stars I would. This disjointed amateurish pretense of a werewolf film is so gross, filled with so many curse words including multiple "F-bombs", gore, screaming, whining, crying, cannibalism, and eviscerating that it's a wonder it isn't x-rated. The story line begins with an abusive husband/father going after his wife and daughter. Immediately, one feels that you have arrived in the middle of the film. The two women escape their home with the husband/father, who has survived a blow over the head with a heavy frying pan - a survival preview of what's to come, in hot pursuit They drive rapidly away heading to grandpa's house in north nowhere. Before you can say Bonehill Road, a key destination along the way, the car hits something. From that point on we are treated to a cross between what looks like the worst outtakes from a werewolf film, a lone attractive house that is like a substitute for the Bates Motel occupied by its resident psycho owner, discarded scenes from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Last House on the Left, and instant recovery from multiple stab wounds. The plot is non-existent, the writing is awful and derivative, the dialogue and acting are laughable, and the totality is pathetic. The "action" is even continued after the credits finish. Be sure and stay in your seat and don't leave the theater too soon - HAH! The Special Feature on the DVD is primarily a self-congratulatory paean by the writer and actors for what they created. Talk about delusional. The best line in the entire film is uttered by a female prisoner in the aforementioned house who is being forced to eat what are fried disemboweled parts of one of the psycho's former prisoners. He calls it steak. She says that she can't eat it because she is a Vegan.

Very lame would not recommend!

Okay, this is a B movie. The werewolf costumes look pretty good though. Hats off to the spx people on those. I would probably give this movie a C rating, but if you're like me... I love werewolves and it's another werewolf movie for my collection.

An old-school, all practical effect werewolf flick! Plot: A mom and her daughter are making their way to a relative’s house after her drunken husband beats the crap out of her for the last time. Unfortunately, something doesn’t want them to make it to their destination. That something is a pack of werewolves! With all that’s has happened you’d think they’d been through enough. Oh no, not if a plot-twist has anything to say about it! Review: For what they had to work with, this turned out awesome! While being inspired by An American Werewolf in London and especially The Howling, Todd Sheets had written a script in I believe 1992 for a werewolf movie and since then he’s made tons of movies. After suffering from a heart attack and surviving he decided to make House of Forbidden Secrets and Dreaming Purple Neon. It wasn’t until 2016 or 2017 that he started work on Bonehill Road. Amazingly, with all the actors, actresses, sets, special effects, make-up and werewolf suits the film cost a total of $13,500. Some of the effects work where done in Hollywood actually. Joe Castro played a major part in making the transformation scene come to life. Oh yeah, you’d better believe it. There’s a kick ass transformation scene in this movie! That enough about the production, I’ll get into more details about it soon. For now let’s focus on the meat of the story and characters. At first glance you’d think this’d be a Cujo esque story. A mom and her child locked in a car with terrible things waiting outside. However, they do manage to escape their confined quarters and they make their way to anywhere but there. There is a plot-twist in this movie that honestly you don’t see coming. I didn’t, I expected something to come of a certain scene later but nothing of the magnitude. Let’s just say you thought after all the mother and her child had been through that they’d be able to catch a break. The mother is a strong character who will do anything to protect her daughter. She’s played by Eli DeGeer and while sometimes she has cringey line deliveries I can also say I believed her performance. It takes a little bit but the chemistry between mother and daughter is really strong though and I don’t think some bad spots of acting can ruin their comradery. Speaking of the daughter, Ana Rojas-Plumberg I felt personally knocked it out of the park. For this being her second movie I was honestly shocked as to how natural she was. She gave a very real performance. While the rest of the cast of characters do pretty damn good jobs I know you all want me to talk about one in particular! Linnea Quigley is very good in this movie. She shows layers that I wasn’t sure she could pull off. Although given her track record she can play a variety of different characters with different emotions, thoughts and wardrobe. I dig the Dreaming Purple Neon shirt she wore in this movie! Seemingly, I’m praising the ever loving hell out this movie and it is for good reason. However, there are a few flaws or gripes I had with it. Some editing choices were a bit odd. There’s one shot where they’re searching inside a house then it cuts to an establishing shot of the house where music plays then just stops when they go back to them walking in the house. Most of the editing was fine though. At first one of the major problems I had with this movie was the plot-twist! I did love it and all but it took up so much of the movie and I felt detracted from the threat of there being werewolves just outside. I think there should’ve been more balance and more action with the werewolves. Over time though I realized that it did what it was supposed to. It’s a plot-twist where it interjects the story and gives you something else to focus on while you wait for the main story to continue. In that regard it works but you may want to set your expectations for werewolf action to a medium. One last complaint I had was that some of the action scenes were a bit to close and shaky to the scene of the intensity. It’s a style I’m not a huge fan of. I want to see wide shots and the terrible things that are occurring. On to a more positive note, the camerawork, lighting and atmosphere are all pretty solid. While the close shakiness was a bit much most of the camera work is pretty damn good. We get some nice shots of the moonlit sky, werewolves howling at the moon and one tracking shot in particular that I really liked. I can’t tell if it was fake or not but it looked good regardless. When the characters reach the housing area you feel like it’s a rundown and dirty area. It gives off a gritty feel that was very prevalent in the shot-on-video days! Speaking of what was in abundance in the shot-on-video days. Gore/Effects: This is a savage movie. We get gutting, bashed heads, stabbings, throat ripping and people are torn apart piece by piece! Joe Castro does amazing work and the werewolf transformation is no exception. I think it’s close to being as great as The Howling and An American Werewolf in London. It’s well lit, doesn’t hold back and shows you everything. This should be counted as part of a trio. On the Road to the Howling American Transformations Motion Picture Soundtrack: It was pretty creepy. Nothing to amazing but it does set the mood and gets the job done rather well! Overall Thoughts: Do you want a werewolf movie with bite? Then look no further than Bonehill Road. If you combine Cujo and Night of the Living Dead then you’d have a pretty good idea what this movie is like. It’s brash, savage and full of gore! Overall Rating: 4 out of 5

Absolutely love this movie! It's awsome! It is in my ever growing movie collection. I have high hopes for a second part to bone hill road. Great werewolf scenes. It will keep you on your toes two different story's merge into one exelent movie! Thank you❤

You could tell right off this was a low budget film. None of the characters were likable so no biggie if they got killed off. Almost half this movie had nothing to do with Werewolves but had a movie in a movie dealing with a deranged serial killer that looked like a freaked out Weird Al Yankovic. Pretty bad acting. Lame ending. Yeah,there was close up gore. The best part of this close to waste of time and $ was the werewolf costumes done by Midnight Studio FX. Save your $.

Absolutely loved Bonehill Road!!! Great practical fx as always with any Todd Sheets film. Looking forward to the next!

Produto muito bom

the plot and the werewolf design was very impressive

Cheap B movie, How many times you do have to get stab to be dead. The cover dvd looks nice, the silver bollet is better than this. A one star movie

Fine
