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
画面好看，角色可爱，只是不甜还腻。
叙事效率奇低，节奏差，混音也做的不好，BGM从始至终都是一个音量，该大不大毫无变化，故事无趣角色不讨喜，非常糟糕的观影体验
几度落泪，总是在不经意间。片子叙事平缓，不急不躁，具有抚慰人心的力量。人生，确如片名所言，来处是归途，寻觅人间酸辣苦甜咸而来，事了拂身去，如那春来秋去风，也当洒脱。
顶级制作，顶级动捕，上乘配乐，shi一样的剧本和人设，属实是巧克力包大便了
那些经典老番要是能有这种画面，那是一种怎样的盛宴
老年痴呆，家庭内部，女性困局。细腻，传统，陈旧。走进电影院不会觉得难看，但不是为了工作需要我是不会走进电影院看它的。
什么自我意识过剩的初中生小作文啊？剧情和人物的行为都完全没有逻辑，编剧就像是在梦游。
跑酷的设定超酷，镜头视角丝滑，两人这条小美人鱼的感情线太寡淡了
从故事到感慨，都拍出来了，其他的话都是多余了
以后一定要补文学积累！！！
最大的问题是多数戏都显“假”：人物的神态台词，环境的布景打光有明显的设计和表演感，看着真的很尴尬。小问题也有：跳跃的情节，单薄的角色，不明觉厉的长镜头和超现实，基本都无助于情绪代入。

爸爸这个角色演得太好了。很多演员的台词说得都很尬，明显是在刻意追求和营造氛围，结尾在老院子里的那个长镜头突然出来的时候被吓到了，记得《小伟》好像也在影片结束的时候来了一段超现实主义，现在都这么搞吗。女主身上的那种压迫是能让观众感受到的，挺好。（校园里的那场戏竟然是在高中学校的。还是出租车司机说的太原话有味。
娃说看到最后小诗消失想哭了
作者可能有自己的想法 世界总会是消失又回归的 但是跑酷这个设定真的燃不起来 最后的结尾也莫名其妙
三星半，作画很精致很过瘾，音乐很好听，就是故事漏洞不少套路也多，一则现代人鱼寓言，但是男女主对彼此的牺牲和贡献不怎么对等，诗粉身碎骨也换不来与响的厮守，凄美又令人唏嘘
一部关于死亡的电影
搞出这么一出
一星给制作，一星给音乐，还有一星是让评分不至于太惨😂
画面和动作不错加1星。世界系少男少女恋爱故事。
