![]() ![]() Now, Batty and Alba - along with housekeeper Inocencia (Ana de la Reguera) and another woman Maru (Amelia Eve of Bly Manor) who was just kind of in the wrong place at the wrong time - are hostages. The two former wives of a bad man live together in a sprawling mansion in a remote coastal town in Mexico under these strange parameters, but one day their little rituals are interrupted by a knock on the door from a trio of seasoned criminals whose latest diamond heist went sideways. Batty killed the husband, and Alba has proof, so she blackmails Batty into doing her bidding day in and day out. Alba’s husband left her for a younger woman, a cocktail waitress named Batty (Gaite Jansen). All of this is somehow just backstory and has little to do with the central plot of Leopard Skin. But she can accurately guess a stranger’s name, and she has successfully avoided death when, multiple times, lethal tragedies have befallen her documentary sets and claimed the lives of everyone in her crew. Leopard Skin centers on Alba (Carla Gugino), a famous documentarian who is possibly psychic but also bad at being psychic? Like, her visions are sometimes just a hair off. I will now attempt to tell you what this show is “about.” ![]() My experience of watching Leopard Skin - a new half-hour heist series from Peacock - can be summed up by the fact that at the end of each episode, my girlfriend and I said to each other: So, they’re all dead and have been dead this whole time, right? My experience of watching Leopard Skin can be summed up by the fact that I watched it in a haze of cold meds and yet do not think they can be to blame for the dizzying and feverish sensations Leopard Skin incites. I, for example, watched all eight episodes of Leopard Skin and am not quite sure I could tell you what happened on Leopard Skin. ![]() The following review of Peacock’s Leopard Skin contains spoilers in the sense that, yes, I do reveal specific plot and character details and even some of the twists that occur on Leopard Skin, but in my opinion this is a show that is not really possible to spoil, because I could tell you every single thing that happens on Leopard Skin and you’d still watch it with a non-zero amount of confusion, intrigue, and surprise.

She's sexy, she's powerful, and she's angry in this movie that showcases just how much Carla would show off later on in her career in both looks and talent. In this indie drama, she plays a young woman named Megan who is seeking vengeance after being attacked one night. Young Carla takes a steamy shower that shows off her very perky pair.

She didn't go nude in either movie, but I think I enjoyed watching her so much because I fondly remember all of her best nude scenes.Ĭarla has always exuded sexuality, so much so that it is rumored that director Wayne Wang did not give her the lead in The Center of the World because he feared her sensuality would overshadow the film. Its spinoff (or sequel? second season? I don't know what to call it) show The Haunting of Bly Manor only barely features Carla Gugino who was a major part of the Hill House crew. I'm a huge horror fan, so naturally, I'm obsessed with the Netflix show The Haunting of Hill House. ![]()
