LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated Under the Skin (2014) in Movies

Nov 29, 2020

The closest we may ever get to a Biker Mice From Mars movie...

In all seriousness, Under the Skin is quite an experience. It's a film that leaves more questions than it answers, and is purposefully provocative in it's desire to explain a damned thing.
It has a jarring mixture of styles, alternating between almost amateur/hidden camera shots and visually stunning moments on a whim. It has plenty of beautiful vistas, and plenty of simplistic yet surreal moments when things get a little extra-terrestrial.

Scarlett Johansson puts in a solid performance as the mysterious being, managing to come off dangerous and vulnerable all at the same time, certainly sympathetic for a creature the audience know very little about. The climax of the film is hard to watch, and highlights the ugliness of the human race effectively, and the entire film is backed by an incredible music score.

I'm not going to pretend I fully understood Under the Skin, but it's truly otherworldly whilst feeling grounded in its Glasgow setting. A genuinely uncomfortable yet beautiful experience.

I've gotten a few people saying they'd like to see my poems, so... here's one! It's quite depressing.

It's called Poised.

She walked through the halls,
Her chin held high,
Yet sadness evident,
In her eyes.

She walked with poise,
An elegance, a grace.
And cold inexpression
On her face.

Because if she let go,
If she let her sadness,
And her weakness show,
She would fall apart,
Bit by bit,
Until there was nothing left
Inside her,

No soul in her skin.

Ok...so I am terrified of dolls and so this one and the other original one are like my worst nightmares. I hate dolls but I loved this movie. It was simply terrifying. It was a great addition to this series. I cant tell you how many times I got chills or jumped near out of my skin during this movie. All I can say is thank goodness I was at home because the theater people would have been mad at me lol...

This picks up where The Eye of the Storm ended. If you’ve wondered what happened to Lydia and her mates, then this short story begins to tell you just that. Lydia seems much more at home in her own (wolf) skin, but she still has a secret that she’s keeping from her mates. This was only an hour long read, but it was such a GOOD read! I’m really looking forward to more from the Surrey pack in the future!
