Review of In My Skin (2002) by Matt M — 05 Nov 2013
A woman becomes dangerously obsessed with her body after a disfiguring accident. De Van's eccentric and even aggressive body horror film will certainly split audiences in half - mostly because of its visual explicitness.
However, what is most daunting about the film is that the uncomfortable and disgusting gory sequences are quite length and sometimes pad the lack of a rewarding plot, also concealing its simplicity. In My Skin is not particularly remarkable as an experimental work either - its parallel meaning and comments of self destructive vices, which are implied within the storyline, aren't very challenging.
