In "Under the Skin", the concept of "hidden skin to lure men" is exactly the same as the Chinese "painted skin". The first half of the film is almost a repetitive depiction of how "she" strikes up single men and then kills them. The typical low-cost production does not have too many cool special effects, so a very intentional method is used to show the process of "killing". In the first three times, Scarlett was undressing while walking towards the dark depths. The soles of her feet were mirrored against the darkness. However, following her, the men who were undressing one by one were walking in the water gradually. be submerged. These scenes are the most creative and audio-visual ideas of the film. The drum beats and the tense string music are perfectly combined, and the sense of form and fatalism of "killing" are extremely shocking.
However, apart from this very interesting concept, the future development of the film is really boring. The problem may not lie in the plot. Later, there are dramatic plots such as "Quasimodo" appearing, human nature is rejuvenated, and the skin is torn. However, the status of the characters has not changed much, and the fate of being burnt to death inexplicably is also incomprehensible, and he only feels that he died without a disease. () 
"Under the Skin" is unique in its originality, with strong experimental colors, but the story and characters are too thin or even rough to give the audience any deep emotional experience, and it lacks a powerful theme expression, which can only be regarded as a strange one. The movie-watching experience is nothing more.

    After encountering a deformed person, it is the awakening of life, but before that it was just a mechanical hunt... Obviously, "she" knows how to seduce the opposite sex (every frown, smile, words and deeds are all waiting for the prey to enter the dark trap), and she knows how to Identify suitable subjects. Then the question arises: If "she" or "her" ancestors/kinders have never experienced the life of "what is human", then where does the experience of hunting come from?

    ★, it's a pity that later we saw the twin peaks in which the sense of strangeness was infinitely extended: return.
