About This Movie

Skulk (2023) dives into a grim, claustrophobic atmosphere. The pacing is deliberate, really heightening the tension as the two survivors navigate their harrowing reality. It’s all about the psychological toll of being hunted—there’s something unsettling about the unknown pursuer that lingers in the mind long after viewing. The practical effects, while not over-the-top, are effective and enhance the eerie mood. Performances are raw, capturing the fear and desperation beautifully. It stands out in a crowded genre for its focus on the mental strain of survival, not just the physical threat. The minimalistic approach really amplifies the horror; it’s quite a nuanced take on survival in the face of dread.
