Snakeskin is a 2001 New Zealand road thriller film directed by Gillian Ashurst and starring Melanie Lynskey. It was released theatrically in New Zealand on 11 October 2001. Despite not receiving an official release in the United States or the UK, it has played on television in both territories and amassed a cult following.

Production

The script was inspired by Ashurst's own experience of growing up in Canterbury: "There was always that sense that you wanted to go somewhere else ... On the surface it felt quite safe, but once I became a teenager and started going to parties, I learnt that Christchurch has quite an underbelly. Skinheads were quite a thing around town back then. They were always breaking up our parties and beating people up ...

Snakeskin was filmed in and around Methven, New Zealand. Ashurst felt the shoot had "a certain magic about it ... it was pretty intense", while acknowledging, "It didn't really fit what they say to do with your first feature, which is to keep it small. [Instead] we were doing a road movie with visual effects, explosions and stunts".

While the bulk of the film's action takes place on the road, with Lynskey's character doing the majority of the driving, the actress herself was unable to drive at the time of shooting.
