Difficulty Level ★★★
The opening immediately sets the stage for intense atmospheres, as a light travels through a dark tunnel while Mica Levi's phenomenally earie score attacks the ears with a powerful humming and aggressive, uneasy strings. Not until the end of this sequence does it become clear what you're actually looking at and that it represents the alien coming into human form.
Johansson portays alien seductress in new film
The only times Johansson talks in her distinctly expressive performance are when she chats up the random men she's stalking, a routine shown repeatedly early on. She'll pull up in the van, ask a stranger walking by for directions and then let her bubbly side show. She finds out if the man has family, if someone's waiting for him and if not, coerces him to ride with her.
"Under the Skin" belongs to the always intriguing genre of arthouse horror, bringing an immersive experience of minimalist sci-fi to the table that fulfills the promise of its title in various ways, chiefly by crawling unnervingly deep under the skin of viewers.
For those who don't fit the criteria, she immediately ends the conversation and drops the façade, coldly driving off. It's like watching someone roving
The idea of an absolutely gorgeous woman roaming around in a white van, trying to pick up lonely men and using her sexuality to snuff them into the abyss, taps into potent fears tied to our lustful basic instincts. Visionary director Jonathan Glazer's arresting execution makes it sublimely creepy, but as the film progresses into exploring the human connection, a fascinating beauty emerges as well.
This chilling character study follows an alien in human form (Scarlett Johansson) who preys on men in Scotland, luring them to their deaths by the promise of sex. There's little story, everything is told visually (without dialogue that easily explains things) and the style is quite artistic. That means it challenges viewers to understand for themselves, while offering bold imagery that switches between dreamlike and nightmarish.

For those whom she does reel in, she takes them to her house and undresses piece by piece while they become ensnared like unwitting flies in a spider web. Accompanied by the ominous score, this process turns into a visually striking, slow tempo, ritualistic seduction dance.
disfigured man, the narrative shifts focus from her indifferent cruelty while hunting to trying to understand the human experience.
Johansson bravely carries the film, going full nude and alternating from flirty babe to intimidating predator, from innocent curiosity to overwhelming confusion. She has the believable, yet subtle precision of a being not of this world, who's slowly absorbing real humanity. For such a big star, this performance reaches iconic status.
DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY
Once inside the home, Glazer portrays the environment as all black, and by the time each man has taken off all his clothes, he sinks into an inescapable black liquid. When you eventually see what happens to a victim trapped in the liquid and how it causes his demise, the result is shocking and legitimately horrifying.
It took over a decade to make "Under the Skin," and although Glazer's style will prove too weird and too low-key for average viewers, lacking enough of a plot to draw in wider appeal, this will still be a notable, relevant piece of filmmaking a decade from now. For the arthouse appreciate and those seeking a more lasting kind of scary, this hypnotic, haunting experience steals your breath away.
