18. The Films of S. Craig Zahler - Bone Tomahawk (2015), Brawl in Cell Block 99 (2017) & Dragged Across Concrete (2018)
This week we discuss the filmography of genre director S. Craig Zahler and delve into all 3 of his films in chronological order.
The first is Bone Tomahawk (2015), a gritty, ultraviolent western where a group of cowboys and lawmen face off against a bloody-thirsty tribe of cave-dwelling mutants.
The second is Brawl in Cell Block 99 (2017), an even grittier and more ultraviolent tale of a man who fights his way through 2 prisons worth of guards and thugs.
The third is Dragged Across Concrete (2018), a buddy cop heist film with the slow pacing of a novel. Grittiness and ultraviolence also feature.
