It’s the most lovable week of the year… Or is it? Here at Clash HQ we’re making sure we bring our own twist to the love season by pitting two obscure movies head to head.

Today we’re looking at 2013’s Under the Skin. An atmospheric thriller about a woman who mercilessly kills and feeds on men on the streets of Glasgow is the epitome of love, don’t you think?
