Watch This: 'Second Skin'


It's been more than a year since we've talked about Second Skin, the video gaming documentary, but now you can watch the entire movie online for free, via Hulu. In fact, you can just head down beyond the break below to watch it right here on Cinematical. The only thing we can't supply is the popcorn.

If you need a primer on the film, you can read our own Peter Martin's review of the film from 2008. It documents gamers who are fully immersed in games like World of Warcraft and Everquest, and how it affects their lives. It's not afraid to show the bad side, but it also covers the unexpected good sides as well. It's surprisingly engaging, and well, you can't beat the price of admittance.

Second Skin will be out on DVD at the end of the month, by jump the gun and watch it from the comfort of your browser just beyond the break. And if you're a hardcore gamer, shrink this window and watch it while you continue your raiding party through that new Crusaders' Coliseum all the kids are playing lately.

SXSW Exclusive: The Dungeon Masters Poster

Filed under: SXSW », Movie Marketing », Posters »



One thing that flew under the radar at SXSW during the Film Awards was the poster competition, which was new to the festival this year. The winner ended up being the poster for Keven McAlester's D&D documentary, The Dungeon Masters, which manages to combine one of the iconic characters from the movie and a well-placed set of gaming dice. Click on the image below for a much larger version.

There's a terrific set of 60 other posters from SXSW films on Flickr, and you can check out the artwork for the runner-up, Objectified, as well as a slew of others. The Dungeon Masters has been flying under the radar since it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year, but if you get a chance to see it I'd highly recommend it. Especially if you've ever rolled a 20-sided die and jumped for joy when you landed a critical hit.
