This 1992 Japanese film tells the story of a scientist who sets out to create the new "super Adam and Eve", humans who cannot be controlled by their emotions. Of course, the end result it not exactly what the good doctor expects.
comments from imdb:
This modern tale of an attempt to build a creature is one of the best "horror" films ever made, even if its not a horror film but something else entirely. Certainly its on my short list of all time great films.
This film was introduced to me by someone who told me "I have this film that probably one of the best films you'll ever see. It will move you and touch you and make you think, but if I told you what it is and told you how its done you will think its the stupidest thing on the face of it and you won't watch it." Intrigued I asked what did he mean, and he said, "Well its a Frankenstein story, with a very goofy sort of edge, but which uses it to its advantage." My ears perked up, and I being a trusting soul took the tape and watched it. I was blown away.
The plot concerns a mad scientist attempting to make a new Adam and Eve in the wake of a suicidal plague that is ravaging the world. Locked up in his lab his experiments go differently then either he or we expect. Some of it is silly (The bolts in the neck, the wrestling moves...), all of it is touching and thought provoking.
I can not recommend this movie enough. If you are willing to take the film on its terms and allow it to tell its story then I urge you to seek this film out and see it. This is an undiscovered gem that will stay with you forever.
15 out of 10 and then some. 10/10
Also known as "The Last Frankenstein", this is an extraordinary, impeccably produced horror film. Director Takeshi Kawamura uses Mary Shelley's novel as a mere launching pad for an exploration of subjects as diverse and fascinating as the nature of love, desire, suicide, mass hypnosis, sex, alienation and jealousy.
And though the film is dense with subtext, it is also stunningly photographed and rich in atmosphere and detail. The performances are all amazing and Kawamura's sensitive handling of the strange, delicate relationships between the characters results in an emotionally charged, angst-ridden tragedy.
The scenes of the confused, troubled monster hurtling through a fog-shrouded forest at night are memorable and striking, as is a brilliant home movie-style montage of the film's more curious characters enjoying a precious afternoon at the beach. Kawamura creates resonating visual poetry of horror and sadness barely sighted since Todd Browning's classic "Freaks".
Intelligent, emotional, tragic and real, this is an absolute gem. 9/10
可是完整的人生
DC终于打了一场翻身仗了，反英雄就该这么拍，之前的自杀小队1跟猛禽小队是什么残次品。配乐跟画面一样色彩斑斓，血浆也丝毫不吝啬。幸好操控的是老鼠，操控的如果是蟑螂真的当场去世…
鲨鱼人纳纳威确实可爱啊🤤
却匪夷地无法治疗肉体上的某些病症。
把告别这件事掰开了揉碎了讲到了心坎儿里TT被遗忘是一件痛苦的事
开头挺有意思，一看就是花了心思了。
这些问题非常复杂，且牵涉到人性、伦理、道德和法制等层面，想想就好，不用急着回答。至于我，我的答案是……我不知道。我真的不知道，最好永远都不用知道。
这只软萌萌的邪恶的反派，曾经也是个天真烂漫，喜爱自由的小可爱呀。
鲜艳的五颜六色让我有些穿越到《王牌特工》，滚导的特色还是很明显的，某些方面来讲，这部其实跟《银河护卫队》是同一种调调，只是滚导在DC这边，玩得更野，我们自然也看得更爽！
无论是站在原本的我
原来没有bug啊
从宗教角度思考，延续我们生命的克隆人未来产出的各种业力，无论好坏，怎么算?
里面的场景非常高级，有种未来的感觉，题材蛮有现实主义的意义，然而故事对我而言太无趣。
剧情有点沉重，可以感受到浓浓的感情快溢出来了，得不到的永远最好。哦，Apple出品的作品和自己很有共通点
跟1不是一个风格啊完全，变成老鼠大战外星人了，密集恐惧症有点瘆得慌，小丑女的片段也很变态美。。。。希望晚上不要做噩梦(⊙o⊙)…
今夜为斯塔罗流泪
但火候问题没有起到强有力的沉浸按摩。
以另外一个存在代替自己去爱所爱之人，
我是对科技发展持谨慎态度
其实是非常老学校的一部片子。不惊艳，不难看。
