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
香港的女同电影，不多见，但近年开始多了。
父系家庭出不了真正的女同性恋 不反孝的结果是一辈子都找不到自己 只能做别人的傀儡
她好想去爱她，有人喜欢蓝。
大女主电影，就是不知道Gaga在干嘛。（2022-02-18）
本来对这个卡司非常期待 可是看下来感觉情绪氛围很不对味 现在才意识到或许他们原本敲定的王家卫比Ridley Scott更适合这个剧本
分离与死亡，代表着成长与告别。
有的喜欢会像食物中毒 吃下去的东西在胃里翻江倒海 亲密又忐忑//很难不和一些同类型同题材的电影相比 略显狗血略显稚嫩也略显无趣//青春的清新和滤镜的清新混合在一起显出的反而不是轻盈 仿佛一场真实发生的幻觉
为什么最后一切都变好了还是要结婚？为什么不可以重新在一起？
后面拍得比前面好，前面实在太无聊了。反而是他被人排挤，然后被人枪杀那一段，终于有了点感觉。
这情绪跳来跳去的，开始还装装是正剧，后面全员喜剧人，表演课随便演，Lady Gaga 可以去演喜剧，不要尝试啥影后之类的。这歌单，感觉是抄我的。
就雷迪嘎嘎走路也要抖肩膀的做派，就暴露了自己。
为ga姨加的一星，她怎么演这种角色活灵活现！
现实的压力跟社会的阅历，旁人异样的眼光，还是选择了大多数人的生活。
帕西诺亮嗓已经快成了好莱坞的非物质文化遗产
小清新电影，两个女生从青涩高中时代的互生情愫，到社会后依然彼此相爱的故事！导演镜头感和渲染力很强，透着一股恬静般的忧伤！爱情永远是电影恒久的主题，用在女生之恋上亦叫人感动，虽然剧情很普通，但两位女主的演绎却很深情！片尾婚礼的场景，浪漫，感动又不免有些惋惜，哀伤！“只要你喜欢我，我喜欢你，没有了世界又如何？”
就像两人在沙发上看着《蓝宇》，却只有一个人看到了最后。
两个穿婚纱的新娘；in & out 时的生理不适，和扎耳洞时的痛，都和心碎一样刻骨
如此恶心，丑陋，傲慢，自大的一个女的居然还会有人喜欢，而且还给她一个获得了最终胜利的那种氛围镜头，要不是最后她尼玛的坐牢了，这部片子还能更难看。有了那个女的的存在真的就感觉其它演员在白费劲一样。
她写出了最贴近现实，却又是最美好的结局，套上戒指的那一刻我也哭了。
其实婚礼上哭的不止她们两个人，还有在屏幕前流泪的我。😭
