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
唐顿好美。台词一贯的优雅。老太太去世的场景大概是一个人离世时最完美的状态了。
跟着唐顿一路走来，我老了他们也老了。有笑有泪的看完，最喜欢的老太太下线了，我喜欢他们体面面对死亡又欢乐迎接新生的态度。长辈的八卦真有趣，谁不是英式快乐法式快乐各种快乐都有点儿才最快乐呢！老爷的担忧让我想起了我爱我家的贾志新哈哈，谁能想到大小姐成为了一位配音演员呢。期待故事继续讲下去！
以一场婚礼开场，以一场葬礼落幕，确实非常英国。英国人真的是对婚礼葬礼可太有执念了，顺便感慨一句距离第一季开播竟然已经过去12年了。
超越预期的好看。英国老太太应该作为国家宝藏申遗。
看电影的感觉真好，短短两个小时，却能把我拉回过去的时光，缓慢的，一集一集追剧的日子，把2022年的世界隔离开来，像过了几年一样漫长。 Downton Abbey可以永远不用变，永远在那里，永远old school，一板一眼。婚礼开始，葬礼结束，死亡又新生，这就是我曾经的热爱了。ps,古迪子这次连酱油也不打了。
十年的剧演员脸上都有了岁月的痕迹，看个电影就像见了很多老朋友，英式的精致和幽默，没有什么太过的起伏，剧迷可看。适合在家窝在沙发里看，开个小台灯配点茴香酒来点巧克力，悠闲的很。
再看到熟悉的他们，一晃十几年已经过去。贝茨还是从鹊起乡到烛镇里面的爸爸，汤米还在巴尔的摩搞窃听，老夫人还是精明强干的麦格教授，大表哥还没有变成X教授的儿子…而大小姐还是大小姐，唐顿庄园的大小姐，是塔拉庄园红土上的斯嘉丽！
电影拍的越来越有fanfic的味儿了，看的粉丝心满意足
老爷瘦了，Mary老了，老太太走了，神奇的是二小姐居然还是那么美。从很多年前看唐家屯到现在这部可能是大结局的最后一集，真的是百感交集。编剧一直在致力于编织梦境以及把所有男男女女都凑成圆满的cp，不管外面多么腥风血雨，总有唐家屯在那里。
Downton Abbey也断断续续陪伴了我近10年，还能从Lady Mary口中听到对Matthew的怀念， 从一开始不喜欢Thomas到为他的新人生而激动落泪，还有楼上楼下每一个可爱的人，以及金句制造机奶奶一路走好，无法形容我对唐顿的爱，最后请让唐顿止于此。
3.8很好，有些画面油画打光真的很好看！电影院音效特别棒，关于英式庭院的爱恨情仇，就是故事情节稍微有点老套…
女主真的好有气质，我最喜欢她，她比那个电影女主演更像女明星，气质也有，唐顿卧虎藏龙，除了这个配音的还有写剧本的，当时这个人说剧本的时候我起鸡皮疙瘩了，为那种氛围而起
唐家屯承载了太多，老夫人安详的离世应该画上一个圆满的句号。
情怀单独加一星，一个时代的落幕，希望Barrow真的找到了好伴侣，唐顿真是少有的这些时代剧里拍得又精致可看性又高的作品了，最像老夫人的还是Mary啊。马修这个老公也太不靠谱了。谁能不为参与到一部电影的拍摄而激动！
腐朽的贵族阶层，披着温情脉脉的面纱，哈哈哈
挺好的 到这儿结束吧。大家都有美好的结局。连托马斯宝贝都找到了好莱坞明星bf。就这样吧，感恩~
应该是唐顿的大结局了——Stop the noise, I can't hear myself die. 想起第一季的时候我在安村到处安利的时光……刚好最近又看到阿城说起中国文化的断代，更加唏嘘……总之，我同意厨子的说法，盎格鲁萨克逊文明是人类文明的标杆。
婚礼开场，葬礼结尾，最后还有新生。每个角色都好鲜活，唐家屯儿永远的神！
因为上海这破管控甚至无法出现在戏院的一出戏，岁月真是神奇，把Mary和Edith都雕塑得如此优雅迷人。这ip趁还能拍就继续多拍些吧，完全能想象英国人看时估计跟我看末代皇帝一个心情：那些美好的fragile却lively的我们无法再次拥有的历史。
爱是老伯爵夫人年轻时候的惊鸿一瞥，是导演对大小姐发乎情止乎礼的克制，是男仆对煮饭阿姨的朴素承诺，也是男演员与贴身男仆的冲破世俗，远走高飞。唐家屯细腻的日常包含着无限的深情。来呀来，去呀去，人间美好无非陪你走一段。
