Watch The Bonesetter For Free

I love this movie so much

Redundant and unnecessary.

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Only one asset was half-way tolerable and that was attractive Sherry Thurig who at least tries to give her character some personality. Everything else fails and not in a small way, we're talking colossal failure here.The Bonesetter is a cheap-looking movie, camcorder video taping is much more professional-looking than the slipshod photography here, the lighting is often too dim and drab in colour, editing is all over the place in the parts that are supposed to be scary and the special effects are all very half-hearted. The music has some occasional mildly effective parts but that's far outweighed by the majority of the time that it's loud, repetitive and over-bearing.When it comes to the story, that's where The Bonesetter falls down massively. The whole story-telling is literally a load of tired clichés re-hashed with pedestrian pacing and complete lack of scares or suspense to boot(because the whole movie is so predictable), making the relatively scant 72-minute length feel longer by seemingly twice as long. None of the characters are interesting and some are annoying, the villain is also far too obvious and just a walking cliché with no development or menace. The acting is terrible from all but Thurig, with Lloyd Kaufmann underused and going through the motions, Mark Courneyea making a near-broken marionette less wooden and Anne-Marie Frigon showing very little emotion.A vast majority of the blame for the colossal failure of The Bonesetter lies with Brett Kelly, who stars, directs and writes and he fails at all three. His lead performance is stiff and whiny with the character making stupid decisions that don't fit within the situation. His direction makes past-prime action stars less flabby, and the script throughout The Bonesetter is so senseless and awkward-sounding that it feels like there wasn't one written for the movie at all until literally at final stages. Overall, a terrible movie with only Thurig as a redeeming merit. 1/10 Bethany Cox

This "MOVIE" adds nothing to the genre, looks horrible,is bland, slow and boring. It's not scary at all. The acting is terrible. The "effects" and makeup are blah. I give any filmmaker credit for doing the work and getting their stuff out for people to see. I've never made a movie but damn, man this is really no good. Don't waist any time or money on this. I wish my review was more enlightening and in-depth but I don't have much to work with here.I think I got this from a Brentwood collection for like a couple of bucks, and I'm still angry that I spent money on it. I am even struggling to write more about the movie. I am at a loss.

After getting the chance to see Brett's first film, THE FERAL MAN, I was so excited when I got my hands on THE BONESETTER. Oh man...THE BONESETTER has a great story, the acting is awesome and the killer is top-notch.Even though Brett directed this film, he is definitely a great actor and I am really looking forward to seeing more films that he has been in. I am wondering if this guy can do no wrong! Does this one have any gore in it? Well, I would have to say that it does have some, especially that of a character that gets his heart ripped out. Wait a minute! Is that the only gore scene? Well, even if it was one gore scene, it was a great scene! OK, now let's talk about this Bonesetter guy. I was wondering if you would ever get to see what this guy looked like and it was almost to the end when you find out and let me tell you, that is one of the creepiest guys that I have ever seen in an independent film. I definitely wouldn't want to cross paths with him.The one thing that I enjoyed so much was seeing Lloyd Kaufman play the mayor. Come on now...when is it when you can see a mayor being talking on TV and you see the poster for CITIZEN TOXIE in the background? That was great and I absolutely love Lloyd! All in all, THE BONESETTER has a kick ass plot, a creepy villain, good effects and some really good acting. I highly recommend this flick! *THE BONESETTER is now included in a 2-DVD set from Brentwood entitled DEAD & ROTTING. Check it out!!!

Firstly let me "come clean" admit that I was in the film, as an extra.That being said the film itself is a good story, well told on a very small budget. This of course somewhat effects the look and feel of the movie but in my opinion does not detract from the story or acting.Anne-Marie Frigon simply steals the screen whenever she appears. She gets the best "one liners" and makes the most of them. Other actors, including Sherry Thurig, do not have extensive experience in front of a camera but it doesn't stop them from giving good performances.The attempt at a creepy atmosphere is evident and with some allowance for the lack of computer aided and expensive special effects we have become used to, the movie pulls it off.Watching it being made I came to appreciate the talents of all involved and look forward to more work from this collection of mostly local talent.
