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
/chy/与心爱的人在一起是难以面对死亡的
克隆人的思路和同样是Apple TV+出品的《基地》如出一辙，个人觉得本片被低估了
克隆人的技术都那么成熟了，为什么不能将本人完全复制粘贴过去呢？只是重新造了一个拥有自己记忆和所有生物特征的人，那这个技术又有什么意义呢？还是不能达到“永生”，只是找了一个自己的替代品，这种事情给人带来的冲击感和孤独感太难让人接受了，就好像让一个机器人或者陌生人来代替自己继续和家人生活一样。影片在伦理和个人情绪的描绘上做的不错。
爱真的可以克隆吗？如果只是移植记忆就可以获得同样的情感和本能，那爱或许只是习得的……
8.5
拍得很深沉，看得很犯困。美术设计倒是挺赞。
首先他是苹果家的，所以整部电影就像是苹果广告一样的质感，清晰的画面，近未来的生活，多元的人种。内里是一个逐渐告别，逐渐接受被替代的故事，最后男主拿着苹果汁当啤酒，和他儿子磕毛豆的一刻，感人至深
弱化了伦理的探讨，取而代之的是抒写家庭、亲情、爱情的温暖，让整部影片不会过于严肃，而是充满了温度，很难得的一部科幻片。
克隆人老梗可真无聊，论如何把一个MV长度的故事抻成一部电影
这电影不是看剧情，看以后发布的Apple Car啊
好久没看到这么有意思能够让我力荐的软科幻了，请静心观赏。
要是“我”做得更好
软科幻的人文小品，男主演技太好了，虽然Scott博士和莫名的惊悚氛围让我全程悬着心觉得一定有什么惊天大阴谋😂。但事实证明这始终是一部探讨亲情、爱情，生命与死亡的温情脉脉的电影，看完全片之后会感慨swan song这个片名之贴切。
克隆体延续生命旅程的故事，一切因爱而起，一切为爱延续。本体与克隆体关系的争议从未停止，伴随着种种道德，人伦，情感的问题，人们始终无法坦然接受被克隆体所代替，也许未来科技足够发达，人的生命可以由克隆体延续，但……克隆体始终不是人类
3.5分 每一个道具都在我的审美点上，但过于煽情和拖沓，故事线过于简单且直白，可能我已经是个肮脏的大人了吧
很悲伤，被戳到的点还有一处是cj打架时，c突然病发而j扶住他
当近端科幻切入到人文关怀与家庭伦理这样的敏感题材，胜在处理的细腻真挚。那在任何一段关系中，被人替代总是不好受的。
导演也是编剧，牛！演员们的表演和拍摄剪辑也棒！
月光男孩，绿皮书，天鹅挽歌。。。一路看来，这部塑造的角色不如前面两部那么深刻动人，但还是看到了马赫沙拉阿里深邃丰富的内里。。
情感很动人～总觉得克隆人会作妖，可能被以前的片子所固化了～所以我觉得这种诠释挺好的～彼此尊重，为了爱人～
