Review of Skin Walker

Skin Walker (2019)
9/10
A rough gem with a deep story
6 August 2020
I do not agree with the previous 2 star review as the user didn't even watch the movie until the end to give a proper description of what the movie is.

It is indeed a very deep layered movie that makes you uncomfortable to watch and does confuse the viewer about what's going on. At first glance it gives the impression of a horror movie when in fact it's a deep psychological trauma that makes you see the story from the eyes of the crazy persona. It is in fact really well crafted this way as the story happens in the background and you have to stitch the clues together until the end. It's not an Inception type of movie as it does answer most of the questions but it is clever done through the use progressively changing colors, sounds, effects and acting performances as the story develops.

The movie is not for everyone and it sure isn't a horror flick. This is more of a Hitchcock type of horror that inflicts fear through disturbed emotions and taboo thoughts (true human creeping horror elements). The actors and production level are spot on.

I highly recommend you to watch this movie if you love psychological movies, especially the ones that put you very up-close and personal to the action. 9/10 as it does leave some unimportant loose ends here and there about secondary characters.
