The lawlessness of the Old West has proven perfectly brutal terrain for the horror genre. The latest horror-Western to make itself known is Place of Bones, which stars Heather Graham as a mother on a remote ranch fighting for her life and that of her daughter against a band of ruthless outlaws.
Place of Bones was directed by Audrey Cummings, the filmmaker behind 2019’s She Never Died (a spinoff of the Henry Rollins horror He Never Died), from a script by Richard Taylor. The Umbrella Academy‘s Tom Hopper co-stars with Graham in the film, along with Parker Lewis himself Corin Nemec, Brielle Robillard and Cowboy Cerrone.
Here’s the synopsis: On a remote ranch, a mother (Heather Graham) and her daughter fight for survival when a wounded outlaw seeking refuge brings a notorious bank robber and his ruthless gang, all desperate to reclaim a stolen fortune, right to their doorstep in this action-packed horror Western.
The Avenue will release Place of Bones in theaters and digitally on August 23rd.
