Under Our Skin Reviews
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2011
The information it presents is eye-opening for medical consumers and health professionals of any stripe. And the film incidentally makes a great case for health care reform.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 2, 2009
We may not get to argue both sides of the debate, but Under Our Skin stirs the deepest emotions and reveals the most unsettling truth: We're all vulnerable to a tick bite, sure, but it's the health care system that really gets us in the end.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 18, 2009
Heartbreaking stories of patients suffering life-shattering illness make "Under Our Skin'' compelling. It would have been an even better movie if the filmmakers had been more diligent in following the money.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 6, 2009
Frightening, powerful stuff.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 1, 2009
Under Our Skin has a major ax to grind, but if even half of what it alleges is true, it's more deeply terrifying than any slasher film you'll ever see.

Scary enough to make the faint of heart decide never to venture into the woods or to lie on the grass again without protective covering.

Under Our Skin is a frightening documentary about Lyme disease, so called because it was first noticed in Lyme, Conn.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 19, 2009
Under My Skin is well-produced and engaging, but it's also anecdotal and conspiratorial, and damnably non-confrontational.
| Original Score: C | Jun 18, 2009
Andy Abrahams Wilson builds a decent, if stylistically dull, case that Lyme disease is far deadlier and more neurologically debilitating than most doctors want to admit.
| Jun 16, 2009
Under Our Skin is a rigorously researched and highly thorough piece of investigative reporting on the silent epidemic that is Lyme disease.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 14, 2009
Producer-director-writer Andy Abrahams Wilson ("Bubbeh Lee and Me") takes a creative, humanistic approach that makes the complex material dramatic and visually interesting.
