Chemical Peel Movie Review
A chemical spill forces a group of women to be trapped in a house, but what happens when the outbreak enters their domicile? That's what we have going on in this 2014 low budget, gross-out indie flick. The premise of this movie is quite good, and I was certainly sold on it. The delivery, however, is lacking, and it starts with the character development...or lack thereof. Two of them are sisters, and they don't like each other--this stems from one of them accidentally killing their younger sister in a car accident. That is really as much as is put into any of the characters, and honestly, you won't care about this story, though it does play into the ending a bit. Truly, the only appeal with this movie comes with what happens to the characters when they come in contact with the contaminated air--to say it's messy is an understatement.
This is a mild example
As somebody who didn't know any better, when I saw the title, I assumed Chemical Peel was a play on words--there's a chemical spill leading to skin peeling off the victims. Little did I know, there is such thing as a chemical peel. According to the fearmongers at WebMD, "Chemical peels can improve the skin's appearance. In this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which makes it "blister" and eventually peel off. The new skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin." So it's kind of like a snake shedding its skin, or like when I was a kid and would put Elmer's Glue on my hand, wait for it to dry, then peel it off, imagining it was my skin--I got bored at school easily. Anyway, this movie is nothing special and not worth hunting down.
