Ravenous
1999
In 19th-century California, a band of misfit soldiers at an army outpost led by Capt. John Boyd (Guy Pearce) receives the badly injured Colqhoun (Robert Carlyle), who tells them horrific tales of resorting to cannibalism to stay alive when his group became stranded. Already teetering on the brink of madness from isolation in the Sierra Nevada wilderness, the men are sent over the edge when they attempt to investigate Colqhoun's claims.

Comedy, Horror
Ravenous is an interesting project to say the least. The film doesn't seem to know if it wants to be a dark comedy or a serious attempt at horror and after watching it I'm kind of at a loss to understand if I really liked it or not.
