Bones and All (2022): Hey what's up guys. Today I'll
show you a horror drama film: "Bones and All"! Spoilers ahead; watch out and take care!
The movie begins with shots of some amateur paintings, and then we see Maren and her
friend getting together to play the piano. The friend asks Maren if she wants to come
over to her place for a sleepover; but Maren is hesitant. she motivates her to make new friends,
so Maren decides to consider her offer. Now, Maren goes to her single dad, who offers her
to drive the car back home. She does well, and then they go home, where her Dad watches the news
and falls asleep on the couch. Maren senses an opportunity, and tells her dad goodnight;
after which, she sneaks out of the house through her window. Maren eventually manages
to find her friend's house, and she introduces herself to all of her friend's friends. Now,
Maren enjoys a normal sleepover with the girls, and everything seems to be going fine. However,
she suddenly bites off one of the girl's fingers, and it makes the others scream in their chicken
voices. Maren is dragged away, and the girls tend to Maren's victim. Maren realizes she's messed up,
so she comes back home to her dad, who panics when he sees what she's done. Dad seems to be
aware that Maren is a cannibal girl, so he takes her away to a new location. However,
he can't take care of her anymore, so he leaves Maren alone after she turns 18.
Among the things that her dad leaves behind, are Maren's birth certificate, some cash,
and a tape with a recording of his voice that tells Maren everything Dad knows about her,
right from her birth. Maren starts crying at first, but then she decides to move to Minnesota,
where her mom is believed to be residing. Maren gets herself a ticket to Minnesota, and resumes
her dad's tape. She learns that her first cannibal incident was back when she was only 3 years old,
and killed her own babysitter. Dad's voice explains how brutal the scene was, as Maren
had ripped off her babysitter's face. This was the reason why he had never used his family's
last name since that time. At night, Maren reads a book all alone; but then it starts to rain,
and suddenly, a mysterious Oldie shows up with his dying muscles. Maren doesn't recognize him;
but then, Oldie reveals he's a cannibal just like her, and he is able to smell her and her
cannibal hormones, even from a long distance. Oldie states that he can also smell how long
it's been since Maren last ate human flesh, so he offers to fix her up some dinner. Maren is
a little nervous at first; but Oldie reassures her that he won't eat a fellow cannibal. later,
Oldie takes Maren to a house, where he fixes up some chickens for her, and explains how cannibals
can be harmful even to other cannibals. Maren starts to explore the place, and asks
if there's someone else over here. Oldie tells her to user her smelling powers to figure out
if there's another person; and slowly, Maren can identify upstairs the smell of something special,
but definitely not the poops. She walks up to one of the rooms, and finds an elderly woman
dying on the floor. Maren panics, and says that she cannot kill innocent people. but Oldie tells
her that he found this elderly woman in her dying condition. Oldie reasons that cannibals like him,
and Maren need to feed their appetite, so she will have to just accept these terms on her
own. Maren needs some time to collect herself, and then she goes for a nap. After the nap,
Maren wakes up to the sounds of munching, and finds Oldie feasting on the elderly woman like
a wild animal. Maren joins in, and then she has a chat with Oldie about cannibalism. He shows off
the gigantic braid of hair he keeps, to mark the people he's eaten throughout his life. Oldie also
reveals that the first person he ate was his own grandfather. Maren starts to trust Oldie,
and reveals that she's looking for her mom. Now, Oldie suggests cleaning up the blood on their
bodies, and then he dries off next to Maren. However, Maren thinks that Oldie is a creep,
and she needs to escape. Maren runs away from Oldie, and gets into a bus. She resumes the tape,
and learns that she had also killed a young boy at camp when she was 8. Her dad's voice says that
he never loved her like a father should; but he never hated her either. Now, Maren goes shopping,
and finds a thin boy named Lee next to her. A man harasses a lady at the store, but Lee stands up
to him and provokes him by flexing his skinny muscles. The man chases Lee outside the store;
but it turns out that Lee is also a cannibal, and he eats the smelly man. Maren could smell Lee when
they met at the store, so she goes looking for him. She finds Lee with the man's blood all over
his body. Figuring that they're both cannibals, Maren strikes a friendship with Lee, and convinces
him to take her in the car that he's stealing from his victim. They go to the victim's place,
where Lee plays songs by his favourite band, Kiss. Lee goes to wash the blood off his body,
and Maren goes to sleep. The next day, Maren and Lee eat at a diner and discuss Oldie. Lee says
he's heard of Oldie, but doubts his intentions. A little girl watches on in horror, as the cannibals
talk about Oldie and his victims. Lee says that he finds Maren nice, and she feels the same;
so they decide to stick to each other. Now, they drive to Lee's hometown,
and enter his house. Lee goes to get some food, and Maren explores some of his photographs. Later,
the two have a meal, but Lee's sister shows up and scolds him for being a jerk to her,
because he never stays in town. Lee promises that he won't abandon her like their dad did. but the
sister says she's going to tell their mother about this. Realizing that they can't stay here anymore.
Lee takes Maren to a slaughterhouse for cattle. They chill and observe the cows; after which,
Maren reveals that she's looking for her mom in Minnesota. Lee promises to take Maren to her mom,
and then they end up having a smelly workout. Later, the couple goes to a park,
and discuss their first time eating a human. It turns out that Lee also ate his babysitter. but
in the middle of their chat, they come across a couple of cannibals, named Redneck and Twisted.
Lee is skeptical at first, but he decides to have a beer with the cannibals. At night,
Redneck tells some of his human-eating stories; but he reveals that Twisted is just a normal
human, who is voluntarily eating other humans, rather than cannibals like Lee and Maren, who eat
humans out of necessity. Redneck also talks about the 'bones and all' eating method, which is what
happens when cannibals eat even the bones of their victims. Maren doesn't like Redneck and Twisted,
so she runs away to the car, while Redneck mocks Lee for simply acting tough when he's actually
very vulnerable. Later, the cannibals fall asleep, so Maren and Lee take this chance to escape in
the car. Redneck wakes up, and chases after the couple; but he isn't able to catch up to them.
Now, Lee and Maren go to a carnival, and enjoy themselves with each other. but then Maren starts
to feel hungry. Lee finds a flashy man being mean to a kid, who's trying to win a prize
at his stall. Lee flirts with Flashy for a bit, and convinces him to meet up after the carnival
for a hormone session. Maren and Lee listen to her dad's last words on the tape; but are disappointed
because Maren's dad simply wishes for her to get better, and suppress her instincts. Maren asks
Lee about his dad; but he says that there's nothing to talk about. Now, Flashy shows up;
so Lee seduces him, and takes his flashy muscles inside a field. Maren goes to check up on them,
and finds the two men performing a flashy exercise for a bit. However, just before Flashy feels the
big release, Lee kills him with his blade, and starts eating him, including his flashy hormones.
Maren joins in on the feast; and later, they go to Flashy's house, with Lee driving his own car and
Maren driving Flashy's car. They want to get some supplies, but notice that the lights are on in
Flashy's house. Maren goes to check out the place, because Lee still has blood all over him. To her
dismay, she finds out that Flashy has a family, and it triggers her. She reveals this information
to Lee, and he tries to calm her down. They escape immediately to avoid getting caught.
On their way, Maren begins to feel guilty about ruining the lives of her victims, and it makes
Lee conscious of his own victims, so he tells her not to make this any harder for him. Maren goes to
sleep, but has a nightmare about her dad spitting blood from his mouth. later, the couple uses a
phonebook to find the address to Maren's maternal grandmother. Maren meets her grandmother; but she
doesn't even know anything about her. Maren learns that her mom had actually eloped with her dad,
because the grandmother and her husband didn't agree to their marriage. she also reveals that
her mom is no longer with them, but she refuses to give any further information. It turns out
that the grandmother had actually adopted Maren's mom; so Maren tries to find out if her mom ever
hurt anyone. she becomes defensive, so Maren promises never to bother her again. That's when
we learn that her mom is actually alive, but is in another town, where she has admitted herself
to a psychiatric hospital. Maren runs towards Lee, and gives him the location, so they rush towards
the hospital. Once they reach the hospital, Maren tells Lee to stay behind as she enters
the hospital. A nurse leads Maren to her mom; but she is shown to have eaten her own hands,
and isn't able to speak because of her medication. Now, the nurse gives Maren a letter that Mom
had written for her 15 years ago. The letter reveals that Maren's mom is also a cannibal,
and she left Dad and Maren because she couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't hurt them. Now,
Maren walks up to her Mom, hoping for a hug; but Mom tries to attack her. The nurse holds
down Mom while Maren escapes, and then she goes to Lee to reveal everything she's learned.
Maren is angry over being abandoned by her Mom, so Lee tries to console her using his muscles. Maren
angrily scolds Lee to release her frustration; but he tells her that they don't have any other
choice, but to live like this. Maren remains adamant that she won't end up like her mom,
and then she gets into the car. they drive to a gas station, and Maren says
she's going to get gas while Lee takes a nap. However, Maren runs away from the car,
so that she can escape Lee. After Lee wakes up, he looks around for Maren, but is unable to find her,
without a trace of her cannibal smell. elsewhere, Maren runs into Oldie, who reveals that he's
been following her for around 2 weeks. Oldie tries to convince Maren to get into his car,
because he wants to make her his substitute daughter. However, Maren refuses Oldie's request,
because she doesn't trust him. This makes Oldie angry, and he insults Maren because he dried
off next to her, which he considers to be a very personal revelation. Oldie drives away, and then
Maren goes to a cafe for some coffee, but notices some cops. so she gets rid of her dad's tape. Now
Lee has a nightmare, filled with horrible visions of violence and murder. He doesn't
want to live like this anymore; so he calls up his sister, and tells her he's coming home.
Time passes by; and then Maren comes to Lee's town, looking for him. She finds Lee's sister, and
asks her about Lee. but she says that he's staying at a nearby lake, and reveals that their dad was a
drunk, who would beat Lee up regularly. One day, things got so bad that Lee ended up fighting his
dad, while she went to get the cops. Their dad was missing when the cops arrived, so they took Lee in
for questioning to test the blood on his body. The blood turned out to be Lee's; so he was let go,
but this incident changed Lee's perspective on life. Now, Maren rushes towards the lake
and finds Lee; after which, she gives him a big hug but without a cannibal kiss. The two decide
to drive away with each other. In the middle of their trip, Maren asks Lee about his dad;
but he doesn't want to talk about it. Eventually, he reveals that his dad was also a cannibal,
and had tried to eat him during the time his sister went to call the cops. Lee explains that
he had put his dad in a chokehold, causing him to pass out. Then, he took his dad to a cabin,
where he tied him up with duct tape. Lee finally reveals that he ended up eating his own dad,
and it makes him emotional. Maren tells him she loves him, and finally they kiss each other.
Now, Maren and Lee decide to be normal people, and live normal lives. Everything seems to be going
fine for a while, with Maren even getting a job. However, one day, Maren comes home to find Oldie's
bag inside her house. Suddenly, Oldie grabs Maren, and forces his dying muscles on top of her. He
says that Lee left a while back; so it's just the two of them for now. Maren tells him that she is
dating Lee; but Oldie says he doesn't like the fact that Maren knows so much about him. Oldie
acts weird, and says he wants to be with someone who understands him. Luckily, Lee shows up,
and slowly walks up to Oldie. He suffocates Oldie with a plastic bag, and then Maren takes
Oldie's knife to stab him multiple times. After a brief struggle, the two drag Oldie to the tub,
and Maren kills Oldie by ripping out his organs. Unfortunately, Maren finds out that Oldie ate
Lee's sister, because she sees her hair as part of Oldie's giant braid. To make matters worse,
Oldie had also stabbed Lee in the lungs, so he is about to die. Maren wants to take Lee to the
hospital, but he wants her to eat him completely, like the 'Bones and all' method that Redneck had
told them about earlier. In a painful sequence, Maren eats Lee completely, and then she cleans
the scene of the crime. The movie ends with a shot of Lee and Maren in a peaceful setting.
