As is with many horror movies in this day and age, Skinamarink is a horror film that veers towards the edge of surrealism and the avant-garde. For traditional Hollywood horror fans, this trend has become very annoying for them. They want a tangible story, concrete levels of context, dialogue, and more often than not, swift pacing. Since this movie has none of these characteristics and has also been hailed as one of the scariest movies, many viewers who're fans of commercial horror films were (and still are) disappointed with Skinamarink. However, there's that brand of people who have those oddly specific fears harnessed in horrors of the unexplainable. Horrors too complex for the mind of a child. That type of creeping terror that leaves you unsure of when it might strike next. For me, I fit within that niche, and I will say that this movie scared the s**t out of me.
