What's the Story?

LEOPARD SKIN follows Alba (Carla Gugino), a former documentarian who's rumored to be cursed -- her bad luck has continued after the death of her mogul husband when she's held captive by thieves. But the situation reveals more about Alba's past, what haunts her, and what haunts everyone else she comes across.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say: Not yet rated
Kids say: Not yet rated

This is a show that might be divisive among viewers: Either you like it or you don't, and your reasoning will hinge on the show's slow yet chaotic reveal of the central mystery. Leopard Skin doesn't seem intent on wanting to be clear to its viewers, and for some, that increases the intrigue. But for others, it will make them want to tune out after the first episode. If you're already a fan of Gugino and her husband/creator of the series Sebastian Gutierrez, you might stick it out for those reasons alone.
