Very watchable and well made Canadian horror which forms a respectable pair with teen wolf flick "Ginger Snaps". Modernizing old legends with unpretentious budgets is one tough challenge, and that's something in which both pictures succeed.

<div align=center><b>LA PEAU BLANCHE (2004) directed by Daniel Roby starring Marc Paquet, Marianne Farley, Fréderic Pierre</b></div><p><div align=justify>Thierry is a university student. He lives with his best pal, Henri, things go well between them until he meets Claire, a young red-head musician. They fall in love pretty quickly and even though they dont know each other for that long, Thierry stays by her side when she becomes sick. Cancer it might be, but maybe its something else.<p>It begins like a buddy flick, the turns into a romance, followed by a melodrama and ends like a horror fantasy. It may sound like a mess but it surprisingly works to some extent.<p>I have to complain about the international English title, <i>Cannibal</i> which gives away a but too much, even though its not about cannibal but rather some type of modern vampires, people who have to feed themselves with human blood, without having the teeth or dying under the sun light.<p>Its a very small budget film and it shows, but director Daniel Roby understands how to shoot a movie effectively. Its a first feature and there are many clumsyness but the good acting and the fine writing make up for all those flaws.<p><i>La peau blanche</i> is a rare type of film in Quebec cause we dont make many horror films. Horror dont mean scary, please make the difference. Its moody when it needs to be and humorous at times. Most of the dialogues are fun and the film is actually better in its everyday-life scenes, rather than when it needs to get the plot moving, which is actually long to get started. Its not a great film but with its racial issue subtext and many other elements that seemed to have reached me somehow, I found this film unexpectedly very appealing. I wouldnt call it a personal favorite of mine, but I know I like it more than most. Lovely cameo by Julie LeBreton</div>
