Bone Daddy has some style, great theme music, and provides its killer with a nicely nasty way of murdering his/her victims, but it all boils down to the fact that this film is a rather generic whodunit. Some of the subplots work and some don't, and the result is a good thriller but not a great one. (Sep 21, 1999) | ||||||
