    Beware of the catch

    It is an interesting movie, even though it moves very slowly. Set in WWII in the Philippines, the father has some gold hidden, which the Japanese soldiers want, so there are perhaps more gracious to the family. One day the father leaves to find the Americans, and says he will be back soon. Behind is the mother, who is sick, her daughter Tala and son Bayani and a servant. After a number of days, Tala and Bayani set out into the forest to find father. Tala comes upon this shelter, and enters. A fairy appears, saying that only one who is truly innocent could find and enter, and she can provide wishes. To cure the mother, she gives Tala a jar with an insect inside. As the mother gets worse, one night Tala sets the insect on her mother, and it crawls inside her. Well, think along the lines of the monkey paw as to what happens. There is always a catch. The movie is well done, just slow, and it also has a lot of mood, which fits.

    Interesting Horror Movie from the Philippines

    Premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival in the Midnight Film Selection.

    Firstly, I do appreciate the creative takes on horror from the Southern Asia perspective as Asian horror movies from Japan and South Korea are pretty common. I rarely see horror flicks made from the Philippines and for the most part, this was pretty good. This movie no doubt has talent as there are some gorgeous camerawork, costumes and productions throughout with some interesting atmosphere and concepts explored. The camerawork is beautiful that helps build tension between the environment and setting.

    The narrative that is mixed with war, fairies, and other horror elements is interesting as the narrative, while some improvements on the writing could be done better, provide some interesting concepts and topics explored. The sound design and the soundtrack is really good. Most of the performances were solid and the child actors do a solid job on performing their roles. The direction is pretty goo as well.

    The biggest problem is the characters. While the characters have interesting moments, the characters felt too thin to fully connect with and made it a little difficult to fully connect at times. Including pacing as there were some moments that did drag slightly. I don't mind slow-burn horror movies but there were certain moments that felt too slow. Including some lightening issues as certain moments were a bit too dark to see.

    Throughout, the gore effects were pretty good and looked pretty realistic. There were some interesting themes that are mean-spirited but I appreciate the director taking some risks on it's tone and setting.

    Overall, it has it's flaws but I did have a good time watching it.

    Stay Away - Spare your time.

    Film that fails in every way.

    It doesn't have an interesting plot. Not interesting in any aspect.

    Average acting and very weak photography add up to a silly, poorly conducted and uninteresting story.

    Characters that do not have depth or meaning to capture the audience's interest.

    A weak, poorly elaborated, tiring story devoid of interesting dialogues or good photography, which makes almost impossible the task of enduring this boring film until the end.

    Why make a movie if you don't have a plot, a nice photography or at least any kind of message to deliver?

    I regret wasting my time with this poor excuse for a movie.

    Avoid it.

    Feeling it

    No pun intended - I had heard a lot about this, I reckon people do like movies with a certain mood. So I was a bit surprised by the vote (before I watched it) and by the movie itself I'd say. There are decent jump scares and shocks throughout. The story also kind of works - plus there is that very strong beginning ... unfortunately that can also be seen a bit as a downfall of the movie too.

    As in people may expect more and better from the rest. That is not to say that the movie is bad. Quite the contrary, it is just not up to the task and the buzz you may have gotten (might only be me I reckon). Acting is decent, sound design is also well done - as is the cinematography - so technically ... sound as they say! If you are into horror you surely will have things to look forward to here (pun you say? Well maybe ...)

    A Haunting Fairy Tale Woven with Dread

    In My Mother's Skin takes you deep into the heart of Filipino folklore, where reality and the supernatural blend seamlessly in a story that is both terrifying and tragically human. Kenneth Dagatan crafts a chilling narrative set against the backdrop of World War II, a time already ripe with despair and fear. What makes this film stand out is its ability to weave horror into the fabric of historical trauma while maintaining a fairy tale-like atmosphere that feels unsettlingly magical.

    The story centers around Tala, a young girl desperate to save her dying mother as her family becomes increasingly isolated in their mansion. When she turns to a mystical fairy for help, the promise of salvation spirals into something far more sinister. Dagatan doesn't shy away from showing the horrors of war, but he cleverly juxtaposes them with an even more sinister supernatural threat.

    The performances, particularly from the young leads, are deeply affecting. They convey the fear and vulnerability of children caught in an adult world filled with treachery. The film's pacing, while slow at times, only serves to heighten the tension, pulling you deeper into its nightmarish world.

    Visually, In My Mother's Skin is stunning. The dark, foreboding woods and the decaying mansion amplify the film's sense of doom. The practical effects and the fairy's design are haunting, delivering the kind of body horror that lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.

    If you enjoy folklore horror with a deeper emotional core, this film is a must-watch. It's not just about the scares but about the price of survival and the fragility of innocence. In My Mother's Skin is an unforgettable journey into the dark side of fairy tales and human desperation.
