ENCORE SCREENING: THE SKIN... A Supernatural Thriller
The Antiguan supernatural thriller 'The Skin’ recently screened in Toronto at the Caribbean Tales Film Showcase to great reviews. For those of you who missed the initial screening, you now have an opportunity to see an encore screening before it leaves Canada.
The Skin is based on Caribbean mythology and set in Antigua and Barbuda when a young couple encounter strange occurrences after they find and sell an ancient artifact. This highly anticipated new feature is written and directed by Howard Allen, produced by Mitzi Benjamin-Allen, and executively produced by HAMAfilms, Antigua.
The Skin stars renowned Jamaican film star Carl Bradshaw, best known for roles in iconic films such as The Harder They Come, Dance Hall Queen, and Third World Cop. Canadian actor Peter Williams (Stargate SGI, A Winter Tale, and Da Kink in My Hair) also stars in the film, along with UK actor Jeff Stewart (The Bill, Dead Man Running and True Horrors).

Benjamin-Allen is best known for being the first Black television news reporter on CFTO television in the 1980’s. She is one half of Antigua’s film industry power couple of HamaFilms, a film and television production company she started with her husband, Howard Allen after relocating to Antigua & Barbuda.
Many people know this dynamic duo from their first feature, 'The Sweetest Mango' in 2001 and now with this new feature film which premiered in Antigua & Barbuda in June, HAMAfilms is proving to be a force to be reckoned with in the Caribbean Film Industry.
