In Their Skin
synopsis
Following a tragic incident, the Hughes family escape their busy upscale suburban life in order to spend some quality family time at their isolated country home. An evening with friendly neighbors is suddenly interrupted when one man's obsession with perfection escalates into a violent struggle, forcing all to go beyond anything they ever thought they were capable of in order to survive.

Indiewire
“You’ll see surprising emotional range from Selma Blair, and an unsettling jittery fury from James D’Arcy, as a psychopath who decides that he is the real Mark Hughes. Both Blair and D’Arcy will get praise for these roles.”
The Hollywood Reporter
“Director Regimbal does an effective job of slowly ratcheting up the tension and handling the sometimes brutal violence in a relatively restrained manner. Josh Close’s screenplay is equally nuanced, concentrating as much on the characters’ psychological complexities as the gothic thriller storyline.”
