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
印度开挂抗英神剧，看来印度也在搞民族主义，但这样的国家也算是头一次了，毕竟之前当狗当习惯，突然看到这样印度还真不习惯，剧情太老套，拍摄也很一般，完全搞不懂难道他们不知道打游击枪武器？，非得投靠他们然后再枪武器？
印度革命浪漫主义电影!
阖家欢乐的电影，全程笑哈哈，还很有趣很热血。
水神火神联手干掉日不落 虽然不是搞笑片但真的好欢乐 各种夸张的动作和神奇的药效让人惊讶 双人合一 水火战神 刀枪不入
阿三究竟如何把春晚塞进手撕鬼子里的，一整个春晚啊妈蛋
印度主旋律抗英神剧，也算导演的用心良苦，毕竟在被大英帝国统治下，奋起的神级英勇斗争！两个男人代表水火，一个为家族一个为国家，一个能抗老虎，一个能打百人，两人联手后变晓勇战神，不得了呀！女反派艾丽森杜迪年轻时也是大美女一个，在此片中演的真是冷酷残暴！
全是套路，没有真心啊这，虽然爽片也不需要什么剧情就是了。。。另外中印的民族主义电影居然是同一时期爆发，也是离谱。
这开挂的方式也太好笑了吧，以为救出玛莉故事就该结束了。不，爽剧就是要实现所有人的愿望！玛莉要救，阿兰也要自由，所有想反抗的人得人手一只枪，阿兰也得见到他的西塔！尬舞跟歌唱真是又好笑又无奈🤷🏻♂️
首先，请收下我的膝盖，无力反驳！突破我的认知！你看把浮夸剧做到极致也特别精彩
动作炫酷剧情也不错！就是神枪手把玉掰开和妻子一人一半的时候掉了一块，神枪手最后竟然用箭……
燃!燃!燃!
当你觉得陷入绝境的时候，辣两个男人竟然合体了！
阿三的革命起义神片 不过你别说 剧情、人物、舞美、运镜都做得挺到位的
感觉国内演员和阿三的一比都差一大截，至少人家能实打实的跳一段
印度手撕鬼子一般的神剧，也太神了，好好的剧情拍成这样
印度的人猿泰山利用苦肉计打入英国殖民统治者内部，用自己擅长的弓箭长矛，消灭了数以百计的使用枪支弹药英国殖民士兵，并把恶贯满盈的英国德里总督杀死，赢得了反抗英国殖民统治的伟大胜利，他俩将永载印度史册。
印度神剧单靠着无脑燃参杂些歌舞便冲出本土了，成特色了
印度电影是真的牛批！开挂最离谱就是营救拉朱这场戏了，但我的第一反应居然不是吐槽而是感动！搜了一下，原来巴霍巴利王和功夫小蝇也是这个导演，印度电影是真的牛！
但侵略，家，国家，仇恨，猛兽，大场面这些推进就是燃！！！！
很《喜劇之王》，一面是演員事業的困境與野心，一面是被意外捲入的黑幫事件，區別是，一個是龍套演員的奮鬥史，一個是過氣巨星的翻身仗。Nicolas Cage、他扮演的Nicolas Cage、他扮演的諸多電影角色，形成了有趣的三重關係，尤其是看到他在電影中自我調侃、自我嘲諷、自我解構，會有種經歷魔幻時刻的真假難辨，可惜，後半部分太類型化了，結局的底也太常規了。PS.《卡里加里博士的小屋》值得被所有人喜歡！PPS.《帕丁頓熊2》也值得被所有人喜歡！
