Trailer For the Monster Film COLD SKIN is a Lovecraftian Tale of Isolation and Madness
If you're a movie fan looking for something a little different than the kind of films Hollywood keeps pumping out, here's a crazy looking unique film that you might enjoy. It's a creature feature thriller called Cold Skin and it tells a Lovecraftian type tale of isolation and madness.
The film comes from director Xavier Gens (The Divide, Frontiere(s), The Crucifixion) and it's an adaptation of the Albert Sanchez Piñol’s Spanish novel. The film has been in and out of development since 2009 and at one point 30 Days of Night director David Slade was attached.
The film is set on the edge of the Antarctic Circle a few years after World War I and this is the synopsis:
On the edge of the Antarctic Circle, a steamship approaches a desolate island. On board is a young man, poised to take the post of weather observer, to live in solitude at the end of the earth. But on shore he finds no trace of the man whom he has been sent to replace, just a deranged castaway who has witnessed a horror he refuses to name. For the next twelve months his entire world will consist of a deserted cabin, trees, rocks, silence and the surrounding sea. Then night begins to fall…
The movie stars Ray Stevenson (Punisher: War Zone) and David Oakes (The Borgias, The White Queen). The movie doesn't have a release date yet, but it looks like a really good and fun movie worth checking out. Watch the trailer and hit us up with your thoughts!
