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
超级棒，在我心里是腐剧的NO.1！😭我下个对象一定要找卷毛的，狗狗眼的男生！
为什么Stephen Graham总是拍fuck up的角色
太太太好看了，又笑又哭一本满足。能不能一直拍下去😭
这些男同性恋们夸张的悲情恋爱真的是😂还是pearl最可爱。本来四个男的同房隔离度假就挺好的，何必插入那些反同元素，唉我的《跆拳道》瘾又犯了
脱离疫情背景和桌面拍摄，这片就仅仅只是一部平庸的爱情喜剧片
救命 他俩的演技太他妈真实了 好好看啊 演的就跟真情侣一样啊呜呜呜 眼神完全在拉丝！！ 吻戏也绝 最重要的他们俩竟然互攻哈哈哈哈哈哈 这个震惊我了 再说一遍演技太好了！！🖤🥺🥺
Ps：Susan阿姨出场后弹幕一片在骂，但这恰好引出了影片的其中一个主题，即向家人出柜的艰难阻力。（弹幕其实也侧面夸了一把角色演技hahahaha）
2021最爱的教育片，一开始还在担心像🇰🇷 剧一样，电影版就是剧版合集，果然🇵🇭 还是诚意满满，电影版完全是接着剧来的，讲述了小卷毛和baby在同居后遇到的各种事情。作为一个小成本电影，一栋房子，六七个演员，能有这种质量真的是太不容易。导演说过不会给大家看不喜欢看的，事实上也做到了，接近两个小时，我的情绪全程都随着他们的一切在波动。不止可以看到甜甜的爱情故事，常见的矛盾冲突，还可以明显感受到他们在爱情中不断学习，慢慢的更加理解对方，把对方放在自己的未来规划中，这真的是所有情侣都应该学习的。还有我得点名表扬小卷毛的演技，收放自如，赏心悦目。
不懂为什么，这床戏看得我有一种，被尊重的感觉，我看的电影不多，这种双方都展现出占有和付出，又不情色的make love，可能是我一直说不明白又最向往的了。 我喜欢两个人陪伴的尺度，不是霸道地进入而是请求，就算是我对你的爱，也在请求你的接受，那种分寸感真的很微妙又很美好。 海边那场戏，就是少年的甜甜的爱，和泰兰德海边那种充满暧昧和性张力不同的，是直白又依恋的依靠，👨🏻🦳❤了 喜欢里面的所有人
啊，就算说是粉丝向我这个粉丝还算满足打分我不能说我没有爱屋及乌的私心吧反正真的蛮喜欢的😍剧集是Gav陪着Cai，电影是Cai陪着Gav，真好啊，两个人演的很好，感觉超甜蜜，你侬我侬小日常狠好，第二对我其实不太在意哈哈哈，闺蜜MM真的好美好喜欢💋💋
菲律宾天花板 第二季赶快上！快点见面啊！！！！！！！
7.2分左右。
3星半，长镜头确实很出彩，着实感受到了压力，一直在担心13号桌要过敏死人！老板女儿也确实太蠢了。。。
疫情元素少了很多，主要是关于同性恋群体与朋友，家人的关系的处理。
生活很艰难，很压抑，工作内容又太多太杂太碎，很轻易就能把一个人压垮。
#LFF21 第24场 机关枪似的台词输出，真的很让人崩溃（线上伦影还没有字幕太考验我的英文了），但是正如片名，剑拔弩张的沸点，多一点都是爆发。
一镜到底真的有沉浸式的体验，并且集结了餐厅所以可能发生的问题，焦虑感十足。老公看之前还想开餐厅的，看完直接打消了这个念头😂😂
字幕翻成黄秋生好有趣啊，素食者的这个题材也好少见
8分。一如既往的法式幽默，大胆又细腻，配乐跟摄影都是精致的。如果从无关吃人的内容来看，也看到很多夫妻相处之道，有什么比两个人为同一个目标互相协力更有爱呢。
值得一看，但低于预期，毕竟要为第二部留白蓄势；最好配角那一对能少点镜头，给Pearl多一点。Gav在剧版里是小天使，在电影里是小可怜，这些不完美让这个人物更加有层次；Cai更开朗更主动也更成熟了，在电影里成了剧情的驱动。外界的压力和内心的阴影都是切实可感的矛盾：这一阶段疫情慢慢退居二线，恋人们学着与病毒共存，与红卫兵魑魅魍魉共存，与全世界的恶意共存。求欢成功的时刻，是他们的自我接纳和互相接纳，也代表着准备好一起面对无知和未知了
