Skin & Bone

About This Movie

Skin & Bone is one of those films that really leans into its eerie atmosphere. Eli Powers crafts a tension-filled narrative that draws you in slowly but surely. It’s about this drifter, right? He takes a gig on this isolated farm run by a mysterious woman, and then it gets really unsettling. The visions he has – men trapped in animal bodies – are haunting and visceral. The practical effects used to conjure these images are a standout, truly adding to the discomfort of the story. Plus, the performances are understated yet compelling, which suits the film’s pacing. It's not your standard horror; it has layers that explore identity and isolation, making it intriguing in its own way.
