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
其实不差，很流畅通顺。是某种中国版的【达芬奇密码】，用真品赝品、围棋古语来解谜，环节紧凑，叙事流畅，人物虽然片面但还算清晰。存在bug但基本都是能解释的。（那些硬要聊每一个小bug和审议汉奸罪的人就是吃饱了撑的，就是只看得懂商业电影还不懂商业电影看什么的憨憨）。葛大爷开枪的那一段还是有点动人的，市井老头也有光辉岁月，但后面的煽情就是廉价的商业片大路货。辛芷蕾的角色写得还是有点水，跟各种007女郎一样面目模糊，只好在服装上做效果（大棉袄）。雷佳音是适合的，本身有电影感，有吸引力但不耀眼，融于故事也不跳脱。至于李现，演技可能是跟荷兰弟学的，每时每刻仿佛嘴里含着两只青蛙。
古董局中局：推理部分真的不拉垮，节奏很棒，葛大爷还是金句频出，雷佳音已经好几部电影里都是一个扮相了，恐难突破，有笑容的辛芷蕾终于能让我get到她的颜，李现气场撑不起来这个角色，说白了选角并不合适。细究电影逻辑的话还是有瑕疵，但是还是一爽片。算是年末开好了第一枪。7.8／10
17年制作的电影 在当时上映的话 应该会是不一样的观感 才看完也是校暴题材的《猪猡之王》旁观者的恶真的大于加害者吗？老师真的太关键了/薛景求演技加一🌟
好看的啊！全程没掏出手机看一眼。没看过原著也能理清，bug也能解释。想去看原著了！除了打戏，每次都被他们对文物的态度吓死，就是说，咱能不能轻一点………
世俗的压力也许存在，其实还是会认为传达错误的价值观，不被允许女孩和女孩在一起，失恋会喝酒，失恋会失控，会试探，生活未必会这样。生活也许很平静。初恋也许是件美好藏在心里的人，没有接触的感情也不能称之为感情，只能是情感
画面拍摄挺唯美的
感觉拍这种类型片挺省劲儿，演技口碑过得去的亲民中年男演员拖一个流量，老戏骨友情客串，搭配一个烈焰般个性女主角，故事按爽剧那个节奏走，一路上打打架斗斗嘴，配合特效闪回，主题落到家国大义，最后坏人一定落网，基本都能回本。
无语了大周五的被舍友拽去看这烂片，电影投资比网剧多不知道几倍结果拍的比网剧烂不知道几倍，如果不是我的**舍友我怎么可能会给木头人贡献电影票，快爬吧就是说😓
让我想到一部双城计中计
想学《母亲》？
（要不然选角大失败！）

韩国现在校园暴力问题很火，本片精彩的在后面，一步一步交代绝不在前面露出一点线索，确实，比起那三个施暴的孩子，律师的孩子更坏，人性的劣根性最后表现无疑，孩子像爸爸。
我知道你是刻意地想跟剧版有所区别，但您拍得也太草率了吧？跑梁子不说，一个鉴宝题材愣是给拍出了一股盗墓片儿的味道，马亲王IP里的所有文化元素到你这儿全成了卖弄的噱头，而且，你这么聊许一城不就坐实了是汉奸了吗？
翰洁不是主谋可以看出来 但是他其实是最初的受害者倒是没想到 三个更有权势的父母紧密地团结在一起很真实 智浩一直没有说出真相也很真实（谁没在期待她翻供呢）最后的真相不过也是校园霸凌的恶果罢了
最恨的是本身作为朋友反水加入欺负人的阵营，更可恶。
总体看算是挺成熟的类型片，作为看过原著小说的人也能大体上满意改编。
施暴者变成了被害者，最后反转还是压死骆驼的最后一根稻草。老师在当时知道律师儿子也是被霸凌者的时候，为什么没有表现出同情？最后其实不大能理解为什么死者觉得律师儿子更可恶啊？不是被逼的没有办法吗？最后律师儿子把他推下河这一段剧情真没必要，纯粹为反转而反转
最后影片呈现为一种大义凛然的主旋律叙事，一家人接连用名誉和生命保护了国宝的安全。
害，角色设计（特别是葛优演的付贵）以及剧情设计都是为了服务于这个解密的目的，完全无法自圆其说，前后融洽。雷佳音上次和辛芷蕾一起出演的《绣春刀》，战斗力如此之强，这次只能一直挨打。以及，很想把手伸进去扇某个装逼怪一巴掌\所有的剧情演员阵容简直就是我的墙头聚会
