The Reflecting Skin (1990)
THE BIRTH OF A SERIAL KILLER
I see in the other reviews how people want to put deep meanings into this film. For me it's pretty simple.
The men in the mysterious black car don't harm Seth because they see themselves in Seth. The kid is a sociopath and he is going to grow up to kill. The driver asks, "Want a ride, Seth Dove?" The kid doesn't say, "No." He says, "Not yet." They don't harm him because they know that one day he'll join them. They recognize that he's one of them.
This film is about the birth of a cold-blooded serial killer.
Island of the Dead (2000)
UNLIKE OTHERS HERE I LIKE THIS FILM
The movie IS odd, but nowhere near as bad as some are saying. Others here are just taking reviewing this horror film waaaay too seriously. I enjoyed it. It's offbeat, but that's what I like about a so-bad-it's-fun kind of movie. This kind of film doesn't have to be logical, so I don't expect it to explain itself. It just is what it is so you enjoy it for what it is. McDowell is really fun to watch. He plays the bad guy with pure glee. As fun-bad horror movies go I like this one. It's very different and I like that the creepy location, Hart Island, is a real place. I would watch it several times more and have.
