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
台湾喜欢拍这种生活剧，淡如白水，有如纪录片，自以为还原真实，却不知电影是在对现实艺术加工的基础上，演技亦是如此，不是仅仅还原真实，而是要艺术加工，却不做作！台湾比大陆还是差得远！
虽然我无法感受到异国归来的不适，但是那种家庭争端和相处模式却异常真实。
动作行云流水，景色细腻用心，虽剧情简单，但是可以进入国漫巅峰一列了
罗通前传，但是一方面罗通没有剧集男主何方知的少年侠气吸引人，另一方面电影版放大了剧集的缺点，即剧情薄弱。说到底罗通的故事和何方知是同一个，而罗通的复仇远没有何方知热血。打戏再好，也不能长一板而短所有吧。
如此流畅的动画 分镜 镜头感 打击感 背后要付出多少辛苦啊
又一部私人化的半自传电影，我听了好多遍陈绮贞的主题曲，「感觉音乐在流动，感觉时光在消逝，感觉你有些改变，感觉来不及永远」。那一封消失的演讲稿和模糊掉的美国梦虽有不甘，倒却也是冲撞过现实生活已经做到最好后的妥协，其实她们一样的浪漫也不怯懦过。我好奇怪，在那个失焦的2003年，对梁芳仪来讲是失去原来生活模式渐渐关闭了的世界，于我则是开始使用MSN，随便加一个陌生人都能畅谈天地觉得无限辽阔的世界。可是后来发生的变化，一切真的尽在不言中了。
很真实的青春期“仇恨”，解放splash，然后发现自己无能为力的第一次成长和醒悟的瞬间，很真实，但是总觉得也像一种过于符号的影像表达。可能作为创作者也要思考，在共情的时候如何跳出一种固定思维。作者叙事是一层，但是作为电影艺术那更深一层的东西更需要探索。
华语小年，只要品相不错就已经很好了。情感充盈，可惜剧本有很多可以挖掘的地方非要停留在家庭感情与母女关系上
片尾曲还是一如既往的好听呀！期待枕刀歌第二季！
叙事四平八稳，不温吞，也没有太刻意的戏剧化冲突。面对生命流逝摇摇欲坠，家庭关系紧张碰撞，大环境焦虑恐慌，林嘉欣的表演非常细腻，收放自如，隐忍的，狂躁的，无奈的，崩溃的，都处理的很到位，很难不对她共情。
挺爽利的东西，为啥要找这几个港配...格格不入不说，主要不够认真，重音错误连篇，难受...
继续用原有的建模和配角人物做的番外故事，打斗依然有水准，但故事多少撑不起来，当然，在国漫里也算水平不错的。
令人窒息的不沟通，所有人都觉得我在为了你努力，但是就是憋着不告诉对方，非常传统
人物画风似乎比tv版更生硬了一些，但是这种国产动漫太需要鼓励了。
最喜欢的一段是方仪一个人去了马场（台湾这么安全吗。。半夜女孩可以一个人出门，好羡慕这样的社会环境），欺骗着自己，一遍遍叫着那匹白马splash，然后抵着马头哭了，镜头给了马的眼睛特写，充满悲悯与慈悲。
~手拿拳脚（修罗）戟枪（风雷）刃（鸳鸯），一路砍来一路杀。。。
剧情不拖泥带水，打戏很多很长很好看。就是立意有点弱了，非黑即白的结局，杀完人一点升华都没有就开始播片尾演员表了……
它的每一面都展开得很浅显，但仍然那么动人，像薄薄的水淹过雕浮的纹理。姐姐两次挨打被拍得真实又深刻，性别是母亲的癌症，教育与家庭，是孩子身上的癌症。
【6.0+】相比《瀑布》，这个故事也显得太单薄了，无论是母女冲突的力度还是与疫情背景的关联都不太够，平淡的家常便饭。
不如第一部好看，但是打戏真的贼帅。武指可以救救武侠真人电影吗
