“This here is the story of Jimmy Bones / Black as night, and hard as stone / Gold plated deuce like the King of Siam / Got a switchblade loose and a diamond on his hand.”
Ever wanted to see a haunted house movie where Snoop Dogg is reanimated from the grave to seek revenge and reclaim his long lost love Pam Grier? Ever wondered what it would look like if Lucio Fulci directed a Blaxploitation movie? BONES is both of these things and so much more.
In 1979, numbers runner Jimmy Bones (Snoop) is the ultimate smooth criminal, keeping the cops under control and drugs out of the neighborhood… until his betrayal and murder at the hands of his lieutenants and a dirty detective. Cut to 2001, as a quartet of teenagers who move into Bones’ former house to start a nightclub in the old neighborhood — which has been laid low by crack and police corruption — inadvertently unleash his vengeful soul.
Exploding with beautiful neon lights and gooey practical effects, and enveloping influences ranging from the pulp schlock of E.C. comics to 70s blaxplo-horror like SUGAR HILL, JD's REVENGE, and BLACULA to the operatic excesses of Italian horror to HELLRAISER's phantasmagoric imagination, BONES is the great underappreciated horror classic of the early aughts.
