简介：
This 1992 Japanese film tells the story of a scientist who sets out to create the new quotsuper Adam and Evequot, 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 quothorrorquot 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 quotI have this film that probably one of the best films you#39ll 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#39t watch itquot Intrigued I asked what did he mean, and he said, quotWell its a Frankenstein story, with a very goofy sort of edge, but which uses it to its advantagequot 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 quotThe Last Frankensteinquot, this is an extraordinary, impeccably produced horror film Director Takeshi Kawamura uses Mary Shelley#39s 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#39s sensitive handling of the strange, delicate relationships between the characters results in an emotionally charged, angstridden tragedy
The scenes of the confused, troubled monster hurtling through a fogshrouded forest at night are memorable and striking, as is a brilliant home moviestyle montage of the film#39s more curious characters enjoying a precious afternoon at the beach Kawamura creates resonating visual poetry of horror and sadness barely sighted since Todd Browning#39s classic quotFreaksquot
Intelligent, emotional, tragic and real, this is an absolute gem 9/10
