Under the Skin
The first 5 minutes and 34 seconds i questioned if i downloaded a copy of this without sound, checked my volume a couple times, then stuck it out and finally saw movement. THERES NO LINES IN THIS MOVIE!! You can basically MAKE your own movie guys, your own plot, your own "swistusion" - brian griffin. Cool movie, but i think RiffTrax can make it a classic.

This is one of those movies that pleads, “Please, riff me!” Under the skin is inert; almost nothing happens in it. More often than not I found myself screaming “DO SOMETHING!” at my TV as I was watching the movie. It just tests and stretches one’s patients to its limits. First off, Under the Skin features more aimless driving than either Manos: The Hands of Fate and Bridemic. The ratio of dialogue-to-movie run time is minimal which translates into “insert your own dialogue here” throughout most of the film. Director Jonathan Glazer has shot this film in such an artsy way (think of the opening minutes of the film for example) as to draw attention to itself, which, in my opinion, diminishes whatever affect he was trying to achieve. Taken as a whole, Under the Skin is just a 1-hour and 43-minute-long WTF. In closing I’d like to add that while I think Mike, Bill and Kevin would do a great job riffing Under the Skin, I think that Mary Jo Pehl and Bridget Jones Nelson may do an outstanding job with it. Thank you.
