Review of The Reflecting Skin (1990) by Coop L — 16 Feb 2009

Definately in my All Time Top 5. about a lonely boy and his strange existence amongst the gothic and grotesque pastures of 50s rural Idaho; strange days, strange ways. The film has a bubbling surreal style to it which might remind people of David Lynch, but lets admit it janknoggs, comparing Lynch and Philip Ridley is like comparing Hendrix and Jim Morrison, you can't even begin to do it.

Anyways, this flick is extremely hard to find, but worth the search. You may have to watch it on VHS unless you order the dvd from like germany or japan or some shit. This is one of those great great great films seems will never get all the recognition it deserves, or even a legitimate US release.
