Perfect Skin

Well, I liked it.

This film is a very much in the moment sort of film. I say that because there is not a lot of depth to it. Very few characters with very little when it comes to their backstories. It is meant to be watched at face value.

It took about 15-20 minutes to get going but once it did, you are sucked into trying to figure out what is going on and the reasons behind it all. It never slaps you with any real answers but even though I would normally be irritated by it, I wasn't with this film. I just liked what I saw but I do wish there would've been more at the very, very end.

This isn't going to scare you. It's not that type of horror but it is a mild version of what I would consider to be psychological horror. If that sounds like something you'd be interested in, check it out. It's not my normal cup of tea but I did end up liking it.

They said in the movie, that Katia comes from Poland (not Romania like it's been described). Only Katia is a Russian name... In Poland is Katarzyna, which is called Kasia

Kevin Chicken's claustrophobic, stylishly mounted Brit-shocker proved to be a pleasingly perverse psychodrama about a terminally twisted Tattooist's altogether sadistic fantasy that got WAY out of his tremulous hands! A fetishistic, fabulously transgressive, skin-prickingly sinister terror flick that I'm quite sure industrial music legend Genesis P. Orridge would have adored! Stunning Polish actress Natalia Kostrzewa is wholly remarkable as Katia, having to endure the most hideous travails as the unfortunate muse to the tyrannical, dangerously obsessive tattoo artist Bob (Richard Brake). This colourful creepshow might give some the needle, but it got right under my skin!

One hour and forty two minutes transformed into a lifetime. If you want time to stand still watch this movie

I really wish Richard Brake did more roles he's amazing! The music in this is trancelike which is really cool! I understand why people said Perfect Skin is boring but it's fairly enjoyable and menacing. Not your average horror movie, it's got a bit of depth to it.
