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
啊这我真的万万没想到神乎其神的血盟大战最后是以这么一个基情四射的方式结束的。。。感觉三星都多给了
把美国人的言而无信、缺乏诚信、没有担当、胆小怕事、贪得无厌的特点，黑得体无完肤了，呵呵！
咪咪好不容易 所以说代孕真的很坏又自私专门骗这些身体健康但是又无知的女孩子
动作戏太少等不到等来的是基友大型分手现场，主线淹没在爱情亲情和基情的合家欢之下也只有一点点神奇动物的戏份，最佳的蝎子那段又黑色又幽默但转瞬即逝。三星全是情怀分。
果然电影和书的原理一样，还是选择经得起时间推敲的去看。
又土又无聊，和现实对标让人格外想翻白眼。大型clumsy分手现场。整点儿设定和情节给粉丝自己写同人场外发挥就完了是吧。不过原本根本脑补不出化学反应的GGAD居然也没有预想得那么不行。同性恋分手，异性恋结婚，行。
为了2个小时的笑与泪，为了片中的社会意义，为了一些选择和一些感动。
有些生硬，有些牵强，就像是为了一个主题或者点子生凑出来的电影。
結局强行大團圓升華主題沒什麽意思
我看见熟悉的场景。
印度果然善于敢于拍摄现实题材，把本来属于悲剧的代孕题材电影以喜剧形式展现出来。相对于富裕、表面有教养实质无担当的美国爽子夫妇，主角虽有小狡猾的缺点，但在大节上，更显得有担当，不惧生活的麻烦，幽默乐观和善良。限于喜剧题材（或者主创人员无法两全其美），影片强行以美国爽子收养印度孤女结尾，但观众心里面白，这在现实中几乎不可能发生，也冲淡了影片警示现实的意义。
以一種輕鬆詼諧的方式說一個沈重的主題，雖然最後電影有點狗血，但是不外乎整個電影其實是很引人入勝的。但是電影始終是電影，現實印度社會的代孕婦女並沒有那麼幸運，他們現實生活的處境更應該值得被關注。還有兒童領養問題，雖然起點是好的，但是時間演變下去，其實還是會產生很多的家庭問題。電影是好電影，但是現實比電影殘酷的太多太多了。
感觉像是为了不把这故事继续往后拍也成立，于是强行把主线故事赶着编完拍完了
为了这个题材多打一星吧，前面都很好，又好笑题材把握也不错，大概从生下来是个正常娃开始崩坏的。。。其实还挺好奇这种法律问题怎么界定的，以及真是个唐氏儿该怎么抚养。。。
选题挺好，但没有往更真实残酷的方向拍，最后还是给了个合家欢大团圆的结局。
结尾给稍微进入新思路。不然全篇又臭又长，没营养。
格林德沃之罪：邓布利多
哈哈哈，在印度人眼里，美国就是背信弃义的叛徒吧
3.还有这个救援小组的成员，新增了两个也太秃然了吧，角色塑造得未免过于仓促，硬塞了个高级防御教授进来
果然电影和书的原理一样，还是选择经得起时间推敲的去看。
