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
佳佳可真t娘的是个人才，有笑点，不把观众当傻子，不强迫你硬笑。看够小鲜肉，这种剧情害挺有意思，挺喜欢。继续加油！期待以后你更多的作品。
冲二手玫瑰，我加一星。小成本东北风情喜剧，没点进去就可以预测的剧情发展。
冲着二手玫瑰去的，前半段很搞笑，后半段有点深沉，深沉中还是带点搞笑
其实网大的底子，但是拍的还不错，情节很简单明了，整体超出预期
表演参次不齐，部分演员剧院味道太重（尤其屋内对峙那里），配音有挽救，可还是些微突兀，为演员和导演捏把汗的功夫，神儿就跳出去了。
三颗星给影片本身，一颗星给导演，能感受到崔志佳确实是非常用心拍的片子
剧情还是完整的，虽然也用了夸张的手法，但是至少是好好讲了故事的。
开头好多蛇，有点吓人；很独特的抗战片，画面超美；有些画面像水墨画，想起了胡金铨，芦苇荡的部分竟然有点像塔可夫斯基
太不自然的设计感，从故事到人物到画面甚至声音处理都很做作和舞台化
段子和小品拼成的电影，那我觉得我现在其实也能当个编剧。
开头绕着树的那个长镜头很精彩，结尾让我想起了《鬼子来了》，有意味但少了劲儿，部分场面令我想起我前年创作的短片（黝黑的衣服、手挖坟、吃果子、大雨等），当然这部做得比我的那部短片好太多了。
诸多类型片的影子，但总体完整流畅，看得轻松而放松。
节奏再控制的好一点 细节再打磨的好一些 就能在院线上映了 不说别的 最起码比“杀手不太冷静”强太多了
单独几段当小品还有点意思，整体来看纯粹浪费时间！
有笑点有泪点，前中期处理的都不错，后期剧情方面有点拉垮。没有刻意的去煽情，而是情绪刚要出来的时候咔给你一下子让你笑，这点我不知道处理的好不好，但我挺喜欢。
豆瓣6.3，但有锁分嫌疑，不推荐观看
万玛才旦监制，嫡系班底护航，包括了德格才让声音指导，意象、声音与万玛才旦电影相通。诗电影追求简单、凝练，最难处理的就是意象符号使用，多则繁，少则薄，本片剧情没表面看起来那么拉垮，不过意味和立意确也不深。影片后半部分真实拍出了战争之残酷，几场水下戏、林间枪战是亮点，部分意识流段落堪称佳章。镜头里，青年演员被拍得特别有魅力。PS，看来以后此类电影不仅要有文学顾问，还要有党史顾问了。
出乎意料，说实话我是抱着吐槽的心态来的，结果发现片子没有走上之前几位东北“术家”的尴尬道路。表演足够放松，笑点也不尴尬，最后还带反转，我觉得可以。
四星鼓励，虽然故事有点扯，不过观感整挺好，搞笑桥段安排的也挺到位
挺好的。剧情简单但是完整，有笑点也有感触，还有许久不见的江湖义气。很朴实，很接地气。
