A brilliant plastic surgeon creates a synthetic skin that withstands any kind of damage. His guinea pig: a mysterious and volatile woman who holds the key to his obsession.

HORROR CENTRALITY
65 /100

Body horror and disturbing experiments are central to the experience, driving atmosphere and themes, but the film is primarily an Almodóvar psychological thriller/drama rather than a pure horror work.
