Bones And All: Physical Review + Special Features

Bones and All is a 2022 ‘romantic’ horror film directed by Luca Guadagnino from a screenplay by David Kajganich and is based on the 2015 novel Bones & All by Camille DeAngelis. The film stars Taylor Russell, Timothée Chalamet, Michael Stuhlbarg, André Holland, Chloë Sevigny, David Gordon Green, Jessica Harper, Jake Horowitz, and Mark Rylance and follows a pair of young cannibals (Russell and Chalamet) who flee together on a road trip and develop feelings for each other as they travel. 

Part horror, part romance and part coming-of-age tale, there’s one thing Bones and All is entirely, messed up. After the success of his two previous films, 2018’s Suspiria and 2017’s Call Me by Your Name, Luca Guadagnino’s latest concoction was always going to be a hot topic among fans of his work…well, I’m pleased to say, Bones and All is truly wonderful.



With a subject matter that’s hard to stomach, it’s terrifying in the way it presents its cannibalism in a realistic way, and two terrifyingly brilliant performances from Taylor Russell and Timothée Chalamet that will, quite frankly, eat your heart out, this cannibal love story plays out like a fever dream, with its masterful melodic score, stomach-churning imagery and dark, disturbing tone keeping me on the edge of my chair throughout.

Mark Rylance is the perfect adversary to our main characters, he’s daunting to watch on screen and is a big reason why your skin crawls throughout and, on a technical aspect, Arseni Khachaturan’s cinematography is a work of art. It’s the Romeo and Juliet of the cannibal world…it’s creepy, seductive and deeply uncomfortable but boy is it truly something special if you make it to the end…Bones and All is one of the finest films of 2022.

Thanks to Warner Brothers I’ve been able to check out the special features of Guadagnino’s latest film and trust me, while there are only around 9 minutes of added material, everything included is a must-watch if you’re a fan of the film! 

The special features included on the Blu-Ray are: A Look Inside (2:23), Luca Guadagmino: The Vision of Bones and All (1:32), Meet Lee (2:06), Meet Maren (1:32) and Outsiders in Love (1:52). Out of these 5, Meet Lee and Meet Maren are easily the best, giving us a deeper dive into the subtle moments of the characters and how Taylor Russell, Timothée Chalamet, Mark Rylance and Luca Guadagmino interpreted them. 

However, while these special features are great, it would have been great to dive into the production of the film more, showing us behind the camera and what occurred during the making of the film as that would have been far more interesting than anything as I would have loved to dive into Guadagmino’s thought process behind the beautiful, horrifying imagery more and understand why he wanted to make this.

Nevertheless, the Blu-Ray does not disappoint, presented in the original 1.85 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer, the colours pop off the screen and the darker tone works wonders for the tone of the film. Everything is played out with pristine clarity with the imagery and sound all working well. It’s exactly what you’d want and plays out just as well as it did in the cinema.

Thank you to Warner Brothers for access to Bones and All for this review. Bones and All is out on physical (Blu-Ray/DVD) now. Check it out, if you are looking to make your skin crawl as it will certainly do that!
