Have you seen this movie yet? If not, do so with utmost haste. It really is a marvel, and if I write very much about it I will be giving away some of the great twists. In short, Ravenous is the story of a US Army officer who, after being grievously wounded in the Mexican War, is assigned to a sparsely populated “fort” in deep in a mountainous frontier. Things go… strangely, and a substantial amount of mayhem, murder, and madness ensue. Add in fantastic acting (from Guy Pearce, Robert Carlyle, Jeffrey Jones, Jeremy Davies, John Spencer, Neal McDonough and David Arquette), beautiful scenery, and a haunting score, and it’s a winner.
It might be a horror movie, a
cannibal movie, and/or a western, and one film critic saw it as a gay romance. See it and let me know.
I love Ravenous!! One of my favorite weird flicks. I say “He’s licking me!!!!” way too much.
