After a disfiguring leg injury, a young woman develops an unsettling secret relationship with her own body in which pain is pleasure, mutilation is love and hungers of the flesh have a mind of their own.

In My Skin Ratings & Reviews
Seattle Times
Chase Hutchinson
This macabre, mournful vision uses gore to excavate the agony buried deep inside a woman whose life is coming undone, creating a compassionate character study that never blinks in the face of violence.
Cinema Crazed
Emilie Black
A bit controversial, a bit subversive, a whole lot of intimate connection with the material, Marina de Van serves here an incredibly powerful piece of cinema about the body, the connection to one's own body, and life as a woman.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Jas Keimig
...a spiral of alienation and sensual fascination...
ColeSmithey.com
Cole Smithey
Unpleasant and irredeemable.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
As it is, it's a silly, if simultaneously deadpan and stomach-churning, psychological portrait of one crazy lady.
Dallas Morning News
Gary Dowell
All you're left with is a bloody mess, in more ways than one.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Like most stories about addiction, it turns into a bit of a bore.
Chicago Tribune
Robert K. Elder
A spellbinding, forceful film that refuses to be ignored.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Marina de Van will be familiar to some as the screenwriter of Franois Ozon's 8 Women, but she's a revelation here, and a terrifically disturbing one at that.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
As disquieting a portrait of psychosis as has ever spilled across the screen.
San Francisco Chronicle
C.W. Nevius
A bloody mess.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Needless to say, In My Skin isn't for everybody. It's recommended to viewers who, like Esther, want to feel something, no matter how distasteful.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
If you can get beyond the ick factor, there awaits an accomplished movie in the tradition of David Cronenberg, in which the body's festering serves as a departure point for an exploration of what makes humans tick.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Lacking Cronenberg's or David Lynch's cinematic style, the film eventually becomes a numbing, repetitive and, yes, gross exercise in would-be shock value.
Newsday
John Anderson
Not easy, but it is thoroughly cinematic and gripping.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Is as unrelenting an exploration of isolation and dissociation as Roman Polanski's Repulsion.
Los Angeles Times
Manohla Dargis
Although it ultimately collapses under the weight of its repulsive imagery ... De Van's film is one of the few features in recent memory that explores violence intellectually, rather than to employ it simply for easy entertainment.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
I can't claim that I honestly 'enjoyed' it, yet perhaps it's a form of praise to say that In My Skin is an experience you won't easily shake.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
How "numb" do you have to be in order not to know that you've seriously injured yourself?
