Beneath the Skin is a 1981 short film created by Cecelia Condit. It follows a woman's thoughts and musings towards a recent incident in which she discovered that her boyfriend was hiding the body of an ex-girlfriend in his closet.

Skin is based on a real-life incident that occurred in Condit's life when she dated Ira Einhorn, also known as the Unicorn Killer. Ira had murdered his ex-girlfriend, Holly Maddux, and hidden her corpse in his closet.[1] Condit, who began dating Einhorn, never found the body due to being on medication that hindered her sense of smell.[2]

The film can be found on Condit's personal YouTube channel.
