I remember seeing the cover for the 1990 horror comedy "Skinned Alive" back in the 90s, but I never did got around to watching it. But that chance came to be now in 2021. And of course I opted to sit down and watch "Skinned Alive" as the movie always had eluded me.
And let me just say that I had definitely not been missing out on a single thing. Writers Jon Killough and Mike Shea just didn't manage to put together an entertaining or enjoyable movie. Nay, "Skinned Alive" fell very short of providing me with much of anything. In fact, I was so bored with the movie that I ended up turning it off well before the halfway marker.
The storyline told in "Skinned Alive" just felt like something written by teenagers. Things in the storyline were just so far out there and laughable that it wasn't even enjoyable or fun to watch. So, for me, there was nothing to enjoy in the storyline.
And then there was the acting. Oh boy. Talk about horrible acting performances where it seemed like one was trying to over-act the next one on the screen. It was just cringeworthy to witness.
"Skinned Alive" eluded me back in the 1990s, and I sort of wish it still had eluded me, because this movie was not worth the time, money or effort.
My rating of director Jon Killough's 1990s movie lands on a one out of ten stars. Sitting through this movie just makes you wish that you yourself was skinned alive.
