The Serpent's Skin

The Serpent's Skin is the neon-soaked, blood-splattered queer love story I've been waiting for

The Serpent's Skin is a queer horror coming-of-age film centered on a deep love story, set against a neon-soaked backdrop reminiscent of early '90s cinema. Directed by Alice Maio Mackay, the film follows Anna as she navigates newfound powers and a relationship with her soulmate Gen, while facing supernatural dangers and transphobic parents. Despite the horror elements, the film emphasizes the strength and complexity of their enduring love.
