193 - Skinner

Published: July 15, 2022, 3 a.m.

After some heavy material about kids in King Arthur\u2019s court and 3 ninjas, we decided on a lighter fare this time. What about a serial killer who kills and skins people? And also his actual name is Skinner? It\u2019s 1993\u2019s Skinner, directed by Ivan Nagy.

Dennis Skinner (Ted Raimi) is a mind-mannered nerd renting a room out to innocent housewife Kerry (Ricki Lake). But he has a horrible secret he\u2019s barely able to maintain: he\u2019s a serial killer who skins his victims and wears their skin. HIs name is Skinner.

Heidi (Traci Lords) is one of his previous victims who\u2019s been hunting him down for five years, which mainly consists of her shooting up old timey 19th century opioids and then following Skinner to a river and mumbling about how much she hates him.

There\u2019s also Kerry\u2019s jerk husband Geoff (David Warshofsky) and a sleazy flop house owner Eddie (Richard Schiff). Will Heidi kill the killer before he strikes again? If she does, will we the audience even see it since this movie is shot and lit horribly? You\u2019ll just have to watch to find out! Also, please don\u2019t watch this.
