The horror genre is nothing new when it comes to movies.

Skinamarink official trailer
Skinamarink breaks through the limitations of the traditional horror movie tropes and even in the 2 minutes long trailer it manages to capture the darkness and unsettling feeling in the film.
Release date
The movie Skinamarink is scheduled to be released on the 13th of January 2023 and later this year in Shudder. It first premiered on 25th July 2022 at the 26th Fantasia International Film Festival in Montreal.
Where to watch
Skinamarink will be released to watch in theatres across all countries and will be available on the horror streaming site Shudder later this year.
According to a famous movie critic C.H. Newell, “Skinamarink is a slow, nightmarish walk through a vivid sensation of nostalgia, reminding adults what it felt like to be afraid of the dark, even in the comfort of one’s own home.”
This horror movie is a compilation of childhood nightmares when nonsensical things made sense and the dark was a living creature that was always ready to hunt when the lights went off. The camera angles and fine cinematography shows how distorted the world was for the young minds and how those corridors and hallways of their home felt somewhat unfamiliar.
