10 Most Disturbing Details Implied In Movies

1. Bone Tomahawk - Troglodyte's Breeding Ground

If you haven't watched Bone Tomahawk and were considering giving it a glance at some point, you should be warned that just because Richard Jenkins, Patrick Wilson and Kurt Russell are part of the principal cast, doesn't mean it's a cheerful and charming romp. The historical recounts of the Old West are not for soft ears, and when they are exaggerated or bolstered for film they can be even worse to all the senses.

Bone Tomahawk follows a search party led by Sheriff Hunt (Russell), who venture into the frontiers of an unnamed State to retrieve a woman abducted by a feral cave-dwelling clan. To go into the specifics of what the Troglodytes do to the people they capture would be stomach-churning to read, but rest assured it's gruesome, vile and bone-chilling. But it's what they do to each other that will really give you sleepless nights;

As Arthur (Wilson), Chicory (Jenkins) and Samantha (Lili Simmons) make their escape out the caves, they pass a gathering of limbless, blinded women tied down to stone slabs. The moment is never addressed, and we as an audience are only ever given a passing glance, but the film suggests at this point that the Troglodytes remove the arms and legs of their women, blind them by hammering pegs into their eyes, and tie them down with the sole purpose of breeding new Troglodytes.

If there was ever a moment where a film made your bones shudder and your jaw clench, it would be this.

I overthink a lot of things. Will talk about pretty much anything for a great length of time. I'm obsessed with General Slocum from the 2002 Spider-Man film. I have questions that were never answered in that entire trilogy!
