But at...Almodovar has taken an ice-cold psychological thriller and performed some stylistic surgery of his own, adding broad comic relief, overripe melodrama, outrageous asides and zesty girl-power uplift.Hitchcock never quite went that far – but you suspect he’d have admired Almodóvar’s balls.An existential mystery, a melodramatic thriller, a medical horror film or just a polymorphous extravaganza.

An elegantly set up dark pyscho-sexual melodrama ... that just left me unmoved. Before I watched it, I read some of the one-star reviews and then the full, detailed plot on Wikipedia.
The main characters are engaging and you feel for them in different ways throughout the film. The Skin I Live In. Frankenstein Meets A Clockwork Orange (Possible Spoiler)
Banderas is fantastic as the brooding doctor, whilst Anaya is a knockout.
Banderas as Dr Ledgard is brilliant. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. An elegantly set up dark pyscho-sexual melodrama ... that just left me unmoved. Pedro Almodóvar has created so many superb surrealistic yet intensely human films that it s no surprise that he should enter the genre of horror stories. Buy.

"The skin I live in" is extremely well made and very watchable in my opinion, and the plot although stretching reality, is in this day and age very plausible, even if it wasn't the twists and turns are enough to draw you in. A surreal, slightly disturbing and immensely captivating masterpiece. But it is a very good film (I would call it a horror) and the acting is excellent - the characters were thoroughly believable throughout.

I had seen this film before during a Spanish class and always meant to buy it as it was so good.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Whatever your concerns about the plausibility of La piel que habito (2011), you can't fault Almodovar for imagination, variety, boldness; for searching out subjects that are topical, dramatic, intriguing and nicely controversial. I just now finished watching The Skin I Live In the second time. The film is entirely in Spanish with subtitles, but because the story is so absorbing, you quickly forget the subtitles. I definitely found it weird and creepy, with quite a bizarre storyline.
I loved it and will definitely look out for more of his films.Almodovar's expert craftsmanship of "The Skin I Live In" is parallel his central character's mastery of the art of skin surgery.

A shocking tale of retribution and obsession from Oscar-winning filmmaker Pedro Almodovar. Please try againTravelling or based outside United States? If, however, you are not squeemish, do NOT read any reviews.
Intriguing thriller with a twisted end. I definitely found it weird and creepy, with quite a bizarre storyline. And NEVER read the Wikipedia plot before you watch any movie on the face of the earth. As usual Pedro Almodovar does not dissapoint in bringing untried ideas that makes his films unforgettable.Watch with caution. The movie itself is a bit 'Silence of the Lambs' for the creepy aspect. This movie will keep you in suspense.
Waaay darker than I anticipated & I didn’t see the end coming! I think it lent to the setting and characters.
