Evil Under the Skin

This film set against striking scenery is absolutely an oddball and I am sure will be ripe for every armchair critic living in their moms basement or over the garage lamenting about how it does not hit their marks or expectations. But as always those trolls will never create anything only sit in a pile of crushed doritos like broken dreams stabbing them in their backside. I could do the same, but I have a life so I instead will point out what I felt worked. the chemistry between the sheriff and the ranger worked as did the brother sister creepfest which was both odd and enjoyable. Angela Barajas is indeed beautiful and Helene Udy does a good job of trying to balance limited dialogue with a slow slide into crazytown. The bleached out look worked for me giving it a dreamlike feel and struck a chord with other scenes that have a much darker feel. You could tell everyone tried and cared for this project and the no budget indie scene is seldom showered with praise mostly criticism. overall I found several keys as I watched and felt it was a slow burn maybe even too slow at times. The soundtrack worked for me and the closing soundtrack for the credits I feel was really quite nice. I am giving the film 9 out of 10 mostly because it was different and not a carbon copy of something else. This film is worth a watch if you like films that don't lay everything out for you and you enjoy originality.

No need to go into what the movie is about.

When you add bad writing, bad acting, bad directing, bad music, bad video, you get this steamy pile.

A teenager with a cellphone could do much better with the neighborhood kids.

The "horror" part is that video space is being taken up in the world with this. It's like they have never seen a movie before.

You have been warned.

The idea has been done before, but (and is a big but) better than here. Slow film where there is no almost horror until the 10-20 minutes to finish. At least, if you see it until the end there is a surprise ending.

What are people thinking when they decide to make these strange wanna be movies. There's no plot, no direction, no characters and no camera operators. Go Away!

I don't think this film is a 10 nor is it a 1 it is somewhere in the middle I enjoyed the weird strange style it was shot in and the delivery I can understand if those with a short attention span and zero patience found it tedious by far my favorite comment was "It's like watching a Russian Ballet made into a stage play in slow motion." That really is a good comparison it is artistic and deliberate and in no way is it a fast mover but I enjoyed the ending and the stunning beauty of the female lead. Overall clearly a low budget indie but worth a watch.
