Skingoria

Tits and ass. Blood and guts. Sex and violence.

In the horror genre, moans of ecstasy frequently turn into screams of terror, and what were once the beautiful bodies of stunning young starlets befall hideous fates of monsters and madmen who mutilate and make a mess of things. Mr Skin calls this intersection of skin and gore, simply, skingoria.

As part of the thrill of fright films is witnessing nightmarish fates reign down on sexy celebrity nudes, skingoria holds a powerful place in the realm of skinema.

Among the most famous skingoria scenes are Lisa Bonet nude with blood dripping on her thick nipples in Angel Heart, Barbara Crampton nude and getting head from a walking corpse in Re-Animator, O.C. MILF Melinda Clarke piercing her tits and ass as a zombie goddess in Return of the Living Dead Part III, the rape and murder of teen girls in The Last House on the Left, the hooker massacre in American Psycho, and Michael Meyers hacking up naked high-school babysitters in Halloween.

Italian gore-shock horror, especially the murder-mystery genre known as “giallo”, always showcases naked nubiles getting disgustingly slaughtered. Check out the work of masters such Dario Argento and Lucio Fulci.

Skingoria is where flesh and blood meet. For the last time.
