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
无人关注、无人聆听的痛苦真的能把人“逼疯”；主人公已经极度理智了，能用这样的方式换来和女性首相的对话真的很令人羡慕动容。
非常工整的叙述 但就算是猜得到的结局也不影响我爱桑德拉·布洛克这位tough woman
印度的网警也忒摸鱼了吧……视频随便传？投票随便投？
印度不仅仅是因为qj，更多的是种族制度，宗教信仰让人分三六九等，相比于资本势力，这种种族烙印封建残余更应该被铲除，否则这种奴役歧视和悲剧会一直存在。
是翻拍其他国家的电影，还是其他国家翻拍过这部电影？似曾相识啊
但是，印度的女性应该得到重视
强奸大国拍摄的批判强奸的电影，的确很有现实意义，作为女性我希望印度能改变女性国民的现状，而且我也希望全世界的女性都能免于被强奸的危险，希望所有强奸犯都能获得死刑，但单纯作为一部电影从观众的角度来看，不得不说前面大部分都太冗长了。
想象出来的场景都拍不好，
全片感情基调是隐忍、克制的，天气也是阴沉的，却在结尾处迎来爆发。妹妹在阳光里一步步走向姐姐，没有只言片语，就只是抱着她，一如小时候抱着如妈妈般存在的姐姐。此刻泪崩~
无人关注、无人聆听的痛苦真的能把人“逼疯”；主人公已经极度理智了，能用这样的方式换来和女性首相的对话真的很令人羡慕动容。
立意还行但是女主演技太差，剧情也不丝滑，浪费我时间
拍摄手法很稚嫩，背景配乐有些故弄玄虚，表达的主题就是印度社会的顽疾和痛点，深刻的主题难以掩饰整体的不足。
初看以为有深层探讨，越看发现越平，群演让人印象深刻。。。
我们就这样不自知地步入一个有罪恶，却无罪感意识，有悲剧，却没有悲剧意识的寒夜？无法使人更高贵，反而使人更加卑微。使人自私、猥琐、狭隘和猜忌。把人们的注意力吸引到细小的事情上面去，没有使人超越人自己本身，却使人称不上真正的人
女性就算当上了总理 还是要看男人的脸色 还是会被性别歧视觉得女性就是情绪化的 看的我越来越生气 女主真的好勇敢好酷啊
桑爪很赞啊，最后那个大力又克制的涌抱太难了。后半段她的几次情绪起伏都给我整哭了，执着地怀着期待，却被内心的痛苦压抑，无能为力的人生好无助啊，还好一切努力都值得，虽然let it go很难，但日子总要继续。结尾哭抽了。当然大神的配乐也有加持。
感动是真的，悲喜是相通的，这才是最难得的东西。支持一把印度妇女。
看完这部电影的同时有8位受害者的声音被掩盖 裙摆被撕破 对于她们而言单是死亡尚可承受 最可怕的是那些反复出现 那些我们对此无能为力的 相互撕扯着的东西
离开不易，摆脱更难。错与罪的摆脱比登天还难。
审美疲劳了，但是背后的故事是震撼的。有趣的是，众人的评论一直一直跟着女主，走过走廊，走进房间，打开冰箱。
