Like its protagonist, the film slips between the cracks – is it a romance, horror, Americana-fixated road movie or an art-house riff on all of the above? It doesn’t matter when a film is this immersive, eerie, moving. Moves from ‘creep out’ to ‘tear jerking’ very swiftly, with maximum stealth; it has more scope and nuance than something like ‘Raw’, that other recentish high-end cannibal flick, and it has more blood and guts than Gregg Araki. I said ‘Enys Men’ was probably going to be my film of the year, but I hadn’t seen ‘Bones And All’ at the time. Another highest recommend.

This sounds really interesting.
