10 Most Ridiculous Weapons Used In Action Movies

6. Bone Sword - Brotherhood Of The Wolf

The idea of a bone sword is one of the most metal concepts you can achieve by putting two words together. The thought of just carving a deadly weapon out of the bones of, presumably, your fallen opponent is guaranteed to get everyone's inner Dragonforce fanboy banging their heads.

Until, that is, you think about it for more than a minute.

Or maybe you don't even have to take that long to think about it, seeing as we have millions of Youtube videos more than happy to show you what happens when a proper sword meets even the toughest bone. Spoilers: it rarely ends well for the bones. So while you could definitely do some damage with a sword made out of bone, you're not going to get nearly the results that you would get by just getting a normal sword.

While Brotherhood of the Wolf isn't the best action movie ever made, it does make you forget the ridiculous nature of a bone sword by making them look just so damn cool in action.
