The first half is fine. At first you don't know what's going on, but then little by little, you start to get the idea. Maybe you'll guess the twist along the way, but good cinematography, sound effects and acting will probably keep you invested in the story enough to carry on. At least for a while. And then in the second half, it falls on its face. And keeps falling deeper and deeper. I won't spoil it here, but you'll know it when it happens... and keeps happening. It becomes grotesque to the point it loses its edge and gets laughable instead of creepy. You won't die out of fear, but cringe might just do the job.

I don't know why this movie has received so much hate. Okay, it does have it's issues. It could have been a little clearer, but then again, the protagonist in an unreliable narrator. There were a few plot threads that were left dangling, but these are small complaints. Over all, Skin Walker was a very taunt movie that was more Hitchcock.thriller than horror. It's more about a young woman descending into madness and exploring a very dark past than outright horror. Udo Keir is of course the reason I am giving it a high score. He brings class to everything he is in. Amber Anderson is very good as Regine and watching her psychotic break is painful at times. All up, I enjoyed Skin Walker and despite it's few flaws, I would recommend it.

Whilst being aware that he has a vast number of credits,the only films starring the legendary Udo Kier I've seen is the bonkers Dario Argento flick Mother of Tears (2007) and fellow auteur Walerian Borowczyk's excellent The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Miss Osbourne (1981-both films also reviewed.) Checking the line up on the Cine-Excess festival,I found that they were streaming Kier's "Return to Horror",leading to me going for a skinny. View on the film: Entering with the same spirit he had for Mother of Tears (2007), Udo Kier gives a joyful performance of cutting thick slices of ham as Claus, who when not cackling with glee Kier has give menacing smirks to all who catch his sight. Forced to return to the family estate, Amber Anderson gives a bubbly turn as Regine, whose downcast withdrawn state Anderson burns at the edges with returned horrors from her childhood entering Regine's adult life. Wearing the potential in the screenplay for a intelligent examination in his feature film debut on the long-term effort of psychological trauma in childhood from the family home, writer/director Christian Neuman skins chances for slow-burn chills or any depth by throwing a trashy splatter Horror mood. Neuman & cinematographer Amandine Klee shake the camera round like it is having a seizure, spinning out of the rich Gothic Horror reds and purples with constant agitating twist and turning camera moves which comes off as utterly detached from the characters and distracting from the elegant Gothic design on the skin.

Bad editing. Bad audio. Bad story. What the heck happened? Lots of noise everywhere. Every scene. Banging, screaming, scratching, booming music. Then suddenly violin concertos. 3/10 Enough, try again.

Complete waste of time, very weak plot which was all over the place...Didn't make sense half the time..couldn't wait for it to end..

This is one trippy film that questions the viewers on whether or not you can believe in everything you see. We see that through the eyes of our main protagonist...a seemingly troubled woman that is enticed to return to her childhood home. She goes on a rollercoaster ride to confront a childhood tragedy & everyone around is walking on egg shells around her. Her dad holds a powerful role in the community... There is some shadow that no matter how hard she focus on cannot see clearly or unravel as to its true nature. There are flashback scenes that seem too far fetched to be believable but there must be an ounce of truth in it. I enjoyed how you are never sure what is going on and the twist is disturbing unnervingly. It is worth a watch. I did figure out it before the big reveal.

Want to guarantee youll at least get to make out with your date? Then suggest movie night and then put this on. Its such a boring nonsensical series of meaningless and just downright confusing scenes that anyone would welcome the distraction of making out literally with anything or anyone then watch this drivel. THE only reason I gave this 4 stars is for Amber Andersons see through top scene. Otherwise like one reviewer I finally gave up trying to watch and make any sort of sense or feeling for this movie at the 56 minute mark. I tried to hang in there but its realy so horrible that even if it had the best ending ever I still couldnt make it to the end. Please take the vast majorities advice and watch or do anything else

I was reading the reviews before putting my own here. This is not a 2 or for stars (of 10) not a 8 or 9. It is slow and it intends to tell the story from the "point of view" of an unreliable narrator, that being Regine herself. As of this kind of style in narrative has had been done before and in a much better ways with more effective results, we cannot say is terrible just for this. It is actually a little derivative, and even predictable (I, myself, resolved the "mystery" within the first half of the movie). Performances are pretty good, for the 2 main characters, because Udo Kier is excellent in what he does, and Amber gave a great performance as a fractured soul with a fractured mind. The end and resolution was kind of knowable since a mile away. But, it was well executed. This is intended as an "artsy" thriller drama. Not that bad, but not as profound as it was trying to be. For me could be 5/10 but I give one more point for Udo and Amber (and even the child actress portraying young Regine). As a curiosity: Hellheim Institute called my attention as Hellheim is the Hell Realm in Norse Heathenry. Not exactly recommend it, but for making a critic we all must watch before. And to the very end. 6/10 for me. Watch at your own risk.
