Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

bobbydugan2 Actually, it's pretty good. I've seen my fair share of the found footage films and for the most part, they are really all the same. But Skew is a little different. Can't say too much without giving the gimmick away but let's just say that most films of this ilk use the hand held/found footage device as just a style, Skew does not. The camera becomes an integral part of the story telling process. Be aware this is a slow-burn of a movie. It makes you think and work as a viewer and that is a good thing. It doesn't really get going until about a half-hour in so have patience and pay attention. It's really a fun ride. I recommend for people who want a little something different from the usual fare. Also, be aware it appears to be a low-budget film. Not a Hollywood movie trying to look like found footage.

Mark Lea I took in the recent lame-brain remake of 'The Evil Dead' hoping that it was going to produce something magically mind tingling centred around the 'book of the Dead' only to witness another pointless gore-fest that is now so old hat and expected of this type of thing that the gory parts are now simply accepted as in-fills for a movie that you would expect to give you a whole lot more above and beyond mere buckets of blood and chainsaws and the like. Where's the imagination? Ha ha! found it guys. Lurking on the top shelf and behind the pomp of the huge budget flashy array of celluloid pulp that, in my mind, really does not befit the horror genre sits this remarkable thought provoking film called 'Skew' beautifully engineered by sevé Schelenz squeezing as much as he can (and a whole lot more) out of a tuppence ha'penny budget but delivers a mind- blowing punch on every twist and turn of the camera taking you through a well written story in it's own right that will leave you with more questions and answers on the first viewing that will surely get you reaching for the replay button just so that you can sit back, take in what you have just watched (again and again) to fill in the jigsaw that has been left building in your mind. Don't expect buckets of blood or 'jump out of your pants' scares in this but if you want your mind to 'skew' then sit out this slow boiler (and all the better for it) to the end and then go back for more.

Theo Robertson I just caught this on The Horror Channel and I'm somewhat perplexed what it was doing there . As the threadbare story unravels the possible horror element is people having distorted faces that led me to believe that I might be watching something along the lines of John Carpenter's THEY LIVE where a special camera alerts the viewer to alien infiltration and a scene of violence at the end but I doubt if SKEW is about alien invasions It's also a very boring film like so many lost footage movies . One can understand low to no budget producers using this format since it requires little money for expensive cameras , film and a star cast but many of us consider the art of cinema as telling a visual story and these type of movies usually revolve around realist situations that are so realistic you could easily make the same film on your I-pod In short this is very banal seen it all before stuff with guerrilla film standard production values . Unless I missed something it's not a horror movie and I'm very sceptical about other comments stating that you have to watch a couple of times in order to get it . I strongly doubt if I'll be watching this again

brenda_hall24 What makes this movie an 8/10 is just how unique and tense it is. You almost forget how much blood isn't in it. Why? Because it's not about that. It's really about the story, the characters, and sticking along for the ride. All this and it turns out to be a bit of a puzzle in the end. The writer knew what he wanted and I appreciate that. I'm tried of the same-old horror film. Actually, this is just on the borderline of horror films. It's kind of more of a drama with elements of horror in it. It's just one of those films that is best suited if you know nothing about it and stumble upon it late at night. But you have to have patience. The only slight issue I have with it is that it starts off slow... really slow, but that's okay because it pulls you in under this sort of lull and then all of sudden captures you. Also, be aware this is a low budget film. Don't let that ruin your viewing pleasure. There are far too many high budget features that have sucked my money away and not delivered.
