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
老老实实照着原著拍应该能好很多 但是这个20年前的服道化和特效既视感是怎么回事 我们的子役一开口就让人犯尴尬症又是咋回事 小孩就不能好好说话吗 《驯兔记》那么惊艳这片咋一点也没学到呢
虽然影像和情节有不少显得散乱的地方，不过整体依然是可爱的，小演员也都很努力，在一眼看上去就很假的特效面前呈现出了一种真。
1.穿西装还是得老男人，崔宇植这种奶呼呼的没有那种气场；但是他这小眼睛倒是把游离于警匪之间的迷惘与不解诠释的很好；
2022年的第一个四星作品。
电影好难看。。但是你崔腿真的好长，好喜欢🥺🥵
一个大大的问号，不是我看得太不专心，就是这拍的真有点毛病。崔演员真的太，帅，了，虽然这个身板确实有点薄了，请多拍戏！！
在郑渊洁超过四十年的创作生涯里，他塑造了几个陪伴几代人成长的著名角色——
适合带孩子一起看，虽然情节简单，但不乏笑点，引人深思。又想起了做孩子的时候与父母对抗的心情，以及教育与孩子天性，素质教育与应试教育的矛盾，以及当年一起看《童话大王》的小伙伴们。
5.5吧 大家都算正常发挥 属于一切方面都没惊喜那一类
“只要你做的事结果是好的，就有民众支持你。”不是非黑即白，而是踩在灰色地带。商业电影一如既往的套路，反转反转再反转，总之让你猜不到结果又能预估剧情走向，有些情节无需较真。完全靠演员演技支撑的一部电影。
不到5岁的儿子看得津津有味，真希望今后多拍一些儿童题材的作品，而不是无休止的网大烂片。
节奏紧凑但剧情平庸，阵容华丽但毫无亮点，落了俗套。
画面过于简陋，没怎么体现出罐头小人的童趣，只是放大了周围场景道具在拍。集体作弊的梗最失败，说教部分也相当敷衍，但也确实体现着“叛逆者”郑渊洁对中国教育体制的看法。5
连人设都立不起来，反而是标签化配角们有模有样，例如圣母、恶女……
没看错的话男主是寄生虫的那个小伙子吧。感觉情节跟日本的《孤狼之血》有点像，但是结局还是比较圆满的。不得不承认韩国在电影题材的自由尺度上不是我们能比的，对体制和腐败的抨击完全不留情面，值得我们学习。看这个架势，应该会拍个续集吧。
没看过小说，但是看名字剧情都挺像孤狼之血，这部玩的太保守了，可能因为讲的是高层内部的故事所以比较平淡吧
赵震雄的行头坐骑一点不像警察，特像个银行高管。朴熙顺戏份太少啦！整场戏绕来绕去，绕来绕去，莫名其妙的就结束了……
无聊的故事，无聊的执导，无聊的表演。低端韩国商业片流水线产物，演员们之间的配合也毫无化学反应，每个人都是一副赶紧拍完好收工回家的样子。感觉赵震雄和朴熙顺选角互换一下可能更合适，不过这种片子嘛，无所谓了。
电影很一般呀，但是能看到赵震雄亦正亦邪的警察形象就很值得了
赵震雄加崔宇植，依然挡不住片子太烂。这两年韩国电影真的不太行啊～
