Under the Skin

Based on the novel by Michel Faber, this unusual sci-fi drama stars Scarlett Johansson as an alien who takes the shape of a beautiful young woman. Icy and emotionless, she travels Scotland, attracting men with the promise of a sexual encounter before coldly dispatching them through immersion in an extraterrestrial liquid. But the longer she stays in human form, the more troubled she becomes by her actions. With Jeremy McWilliams, Dougie McConnell. 108 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, Spanish; "making of" featurette.
