Review of Cold Skin

Cold Skin (2017)
8/10
A deeper film than the trailers and promos suggests.

Ok, I admit this fim is really a 7 stars, but gave it 8 because it deserves more than the 6 it has. I first saw it on a dvdrip mp4, but immediately bought the DVD. It's a shame it didn't do better at the box office but it was poorly promoted and the trailer did it no favors. But to be fair it's not an easy one to digest... or even to understand. It's much deeper than it appears. It's like a weird combination of The Lighthouse and Shape Of Water. People who were expecting to see Clash of the Mini-Titans would have been sorely disappointed. Sort of like "Night Eats The World", the surface story for "Cold Skin" also created inaccurate expectations. But the deeper story is tragic and beautiful.
