Stumbled across this when lookin for information for my patois gone thread. Sounds positively gruesome.
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">This highly anticipated film took Howard Allen three years to write. The Skin is a thriller/horror movie based on Caribbean mythology, making it the third installment in HAMA’s trilogy featuring the Caribbean’s mythical creatures. The first was No Seed that featured an obeah woman and, the second was Diablesse about La Diableese.
HAMA’s upcoming film is centred on a soucuoyant, which is a vampire that sheds its humanly skin and goes after the blood of babies. The soucuoyant is awoken from its dormancy when the
husband of a young couple stumbles upon an accent relic. After selling the relic to an antique dealer, odd things begin to happen to them. The woman gets a strange mark on her pregnant
belly and is told by a medicine man that they have awoken a soucuoyant which they must destroy before she destroys them.</div></div>
