With the announcement that Pedro Almodóvar will bring his thriler The Skin I Live In to Toronto International Film Festival 2011, we have a new NSFW trailer. We already saw the film at Cannes calling it a “fantastic film to add to Almodóvar’s already impressive body of work with great performances, tension and suspense.” We’ve seen a few trailers, but the latest via STYD shows off more creepy footage, which can be seen below. Antonio Banderas stars alongside Elena Ayana, Marisa Paredes, Roberto Alamo, Blanca Suárez, Eduard Fernández, and José Luis Gómez.
Synopsis:
Ever since his wife was burned in a car crash, Dr. Robert Ledgard (Antonia Banderas), an eminent plastic surgeon, has been interested in creating a new skin with which he could have saved her. After twelve years, he manages to cultivate a skin that is a real shield against every assault. In addition to years of study and experimentation, Robert needed a further three things: no scruples, an accomplice and a human guinea pig. Scruples were never a problem. Marilia, the woman who looked after him from the day he was born, is his most faithful accomplice. And as for the human guinea pig…
The Skin I Live In hits US theaters on October 14th, 2011.
