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
本片人物的行为逻辑和动作戏的动作逻辑都太感人了。
黑社会是明说自己是坏人，再去做坏事的，那种反而比较正常。棘手的是那种摆出一副正义嘴脸干坏事的人，连他们都认为自己是正确的。
续作力有不逮，没有延续下去第一部角色三番五次游走于黑白陷阱当中的那份惊险和慧黠的魅力。来到第二部只看见一味输出的疯癫暴力，以及企图追思黑道时代落幕的拙笨身姿。松坂桃李挺像小栗旬；铃木亮平挺像嘎子哥。西野七濑演技大不妥，表现与资本硬塞进组的流量明星无异。
日岡最后给上林那几枪还是挺帅的
前面铺垫了那么久，摊子倒是铺挺大，结果之后结局就给我看个这？
“You know I have a thing for superheroes”
狗狗太聪敏了，男主长得帅，想到剧情来自真实故事就觉得暖暖的
狗狗好乖好聪明awww双向奔赴救赎的故事最爱了❤
和第一部比确实差了很多，原以为第二部的日冈可以继承大上的风采，结果却成了这样
Grant演技95分，导演跟剧情大概70分😂不能因为真实故事改编就真的完全不铺垫吧？整部电影就像当事人在叙述一样，一part接一part都是重点，缺乏衔接，不过整体来说还算不错，Grant好久没有新电影了，一把子支持！
电影很轻松，主角一家长得多好看啊，尤其看到小婴儿和狗狗在一起的镜头，太治愈了。谈什么对象，要什么家庭呢？还不如找条这么样的狗狗相互为伴！
这么好的黑帮题材，这么好的前作铺路，还是玩兹了。人物的毫无逻辑，比如狠人，最开始想给老大报仇，我还觉得是个有情义又手黑的立体反派，可越往后越不知道他想干什么，尤其结尾大决战，俩人完全是为打而打，跟爱恨情仇没啥关系啊感觉。主角到灵魂暗夜之后醒悟是自己人摆的局，于是就打爬一众旧同事，并盗警车跑去和反派大决斗，人物逻辑便十分混乱了。另外，对面帮派功能性也太强了，他们到底是在干啥？！挺好的底子，可惜了。
很感人又纯粹的电影，喜欢这只狗狗，喜欢他的主人，喜欢他的妻子，喜欢周围围绕的一群善良的人们。这个世界太缺乏正能量了，还是真实案例改编的电影，看完就是心中很暖的感觉，有被疗愈到。
常规套路看得一多，于是对很多梗就免疫。然而男主太帅狗狗太可爱，甚至连警长都是严格又体贴的上司，被救的和施救者都是很温暖的家庭。剧情三星，为格兰特·古斯汀加一星

呜呜犯罪片都这么暴力的嘛。。不光18+，我这种心理脆弱的人也不应该看这种血腥暴力片。。。（我有个疑问，铃木亮平这种随时杀人的疯狗，身边的人就没想过一冷枪给崩了？他一出狱他组的新老大不就该直接崩了他还在外面蹦跶那么久？这种人的存在对所有人都是危险啊。。）
看之前（和开始看的5分钟内）：嗷嗷嗷我桃帅炸！看了半个钟头后：妈呀铃木亮平是吃了开窍丸吗怎么那么会演，桃被精准碾压了！
故事么是一般，但是狗好啊！因为太过调皮好动而被几次退养差点就要安乐死的狗狗，感谢男主没有放弃她，这是真正的你给她一个机会她还你一个奇迹。露比离家出走那里看得还挺难过，聪明的狗狗，懂的远比你想象的多。狗主原来是现实中露比的好朋友呢，演得太好了，尤其最后守在获救男孩身边时那小眼神，要是露比本尊也来客串下露个脸就更好啦。
训练狗子真的是件折磨人又幸福的事，搜救犬当然更难，但整个剧本故事略显简单，戏剧冲突都很乏味。看惯了格兰特的闪电侠，总觉得他自己上去穿个制服救人都比狗快。🐶
片场最难搞定都就是小孩和狗 如果我拍这个片子 指定要疯哈哈哈
