I Eat Your Skin

About This Movie

I Eat Your Skin is one of those curious films from the early '70s that blends horror with a touch of camp. Directed by Del Tenney, it's got this strange, almost dreamlike quality—part adventure, part Voodoo lore. The pacing drags a bit in places, but it gives you time to soak in the eerie atmosphere of Voodoo Island. The practical effects, while not top-notch, have a certain charm and contribute to the film's unique vibe. The performances, especially by the lead, can feel a bit over-the-top, but it fits the odd tone of the story. It's distinctive in how it tackles themes of colonialism and exploitation through a horror lens, which makes it worth a watch for collectors interested in the genre's evolution.
