Skin Walker

Dear god, the movie is over. I feel like I just got paroled. To suffer through a mind screw like this indicates that I must have done something to deserve a punishment for whatever I did. The story goes as follows, a man shows up, tells this woman her brother, that she believes is dead since birth, has killed someone. She goes back and that's the beginning of the TWISTED tale. Frankly, my brain hurts. It's one of those kinds of movies that you don't know what's real and what isn't. This is something that I'd rather NEVER experience again. I'm astounded by the 7.7 rating it got, then I seen that it had only 5 reviews. Two of them are from normal human beings that hated it, and three others, which I can only assume that gave it high marks because they are the director, the assistant director and the producer. These have to be fake reviews and trust me folks, it happens. I wouldn't go anywhere near this garbage. Peace.

Actually, just a single word is necessary to summarize this entire movie, and that word is: no.

This movie was as boring as it was a confused mess of a narrative. I suppose writer and director Christian Neuman was attempting to show the crazy mind of Regine (played by Amber Anderson), and in that term he actually did quite alright, because it was confusing and troubled. But if you look at the movie in terms of it being an entertaining and enjoyable movie, then that approach to the storyline just failed utterly and ruined anything even remotely close to being enjoyable.

"Skin Walker" does have a nice cast, with the likes of Udo Kier on the cast list as well. Just a shame that the storyline was such a heap of rubbish, because it reflected badly on the actors and actresses.

I managed to endure 53 minutes of the ordeal that is "Skin Walker", then I just simply gave up. I wasn't the least bit entertained. Watching scene after scene of what seemed to be randomly put together filmed sequences just didn't cut it for me.

At least the movie has some nice enough production level to it, but it was hardly enough to to make up for the randomness and confusion that is "Skin Walker".

My rating of this 2019 movie lands on a mere two out of ten stars. And I have absolutely no intention of returning to watch the rest of the movie.

Ratings mean very little to me, at the end of the day, every film is purely a subjective experience.

A film halfway between psychological thriller and horror. Good choice of English (with French subtitles), which gives it a more international appeal. Good actors, good photography, sound and location. The protagonist of this story, is a young and psychologically fragile young woman (Regine) who must return to confront the ghosts of the past. There is no lack of tension and a decent the final twist. The script leaves something to be desired, but it is offset by well-made flashbacks, capable of revealing some of the plot secrets at the right moment.

Complete waste of time, very weak plot which was all over the place...Didn't make sense half the time..couldn't wait for it to end..

The first half is fine. At first you don't know what's going on, but then little by little, you start to get the idea. Maybe you'll guess the twist along the way, but good cinematography, sound effects and acting will probably keep you invested in the story enough to carry on. At least for a while.

And then in the second half, it falls on its face. And keeps falling deeper and deeper. I won't spoil it here, but you'll know it when it happens... and keeps happening.

It becomes grotesque to the point it loses its edge and gets laughable instead of creepy. You won't die out of fear, but cringe might just do the job.
