The premise
Abandoned by her father, a young woman embarks on a thousand-mile odyssey through the backroads of America where she meets a disenfranchised drifter. But despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand that will determine whether their love can survive their otherness.
Horror Vault's take
Set against the sun-bleached backroads of 1980s America, Bones and All follows a teenage girl cast out by her family who discovers she is far from alone in her darkest secret. When she crosses paths with a charismatic young drifter, the two embark on a desperate cross-country journey — part road movie, part love story — haunted by others who share their curse. Director Luca Guadagnino renders cannibalism not as cheap shock but as a visceral metaphor for longing, belonging, and the consuming nature of love. Raw, tender, and genuinely disturbing, it is genre filmmaking with an unexpectedly aching heart.
