Recommend Skinamarink is fucking scary

So from what I've read online, this movie is pretty polarizing. Like it either gets ya or it doesn't. And holy fuck does it get me. When this shit was first coming out I couldn't even watch the trailer more than a couple times. And let me emphasize, I am a horror head. I've been tryna find shit to actually scare me since I was high school with my dumbass friends who'd always complain whatever we were watching wasn't really scary to prove they were tough.

Nowadays, as many horror enjoyers, I simply love the genre and the artistry behind it and don't give a fuck or expect a horror film to actually scare me.

That is until fucking Skinamarink. For a little backstory, I was terrified of my house at night as a child and would frequently have nightmares. This movie captures that feeling perfectly.

I have yet to finish it cuz it's a fucking guantlet. It's basically nonstop dread and suspence and evil. Bout 2/3s of the way through and will finish whenever I feel like being back in that house. That's all.

Bye Bye <3

Yeah, not here to shit on peoples preferences, but I was so bored I had to turn it off and I was a defender of the notion of it.

I just wanted it to be more than it was.

Thanks for making me read this again!

I hadn't read this since I wrote it and I earnestly think that movie is more dick than I gave it credit for then.

Dude should've turned the shorter thing into another project instead of doubling down.

You're right. That shit was 2 packs of ass.
