Review of The Skin I Live In (2011) by Homereviewer — 04 May 2012

The movie's official site, including previews, doesn't prepare you for all the taboos, ethics and moral standards this film is unafraid to break through. The story is oh, so unpredictable! It has special effects that makes the gruesome scenes realistic, like nothing Iâ(TM)ve seen before.

The aesthetic imagery contrasts with the psychologically horrific moments. Take a minute to read the official movie's advisories on sex, nudity, violence, gore, profanity and intense scenes; then you probably will not want to see it, or, like me, you will be eager to see if all of it is as extreme as it is depicted to be.

I think it's close enough.
