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
几个关键CGI场景做的不错，反派boss艺术设计的可以，最后莫瑞三个出现也算是彩蛋，整体剧情就很平庸了。
美军基地连重武器都没有？被轻易攻破，太假。唧唧歪歪太多，到结尾还在菜鸡互啄。弱智美女过早领了便当，还想多看两眼。
科学少年继承外公遗志，活捉大魔王。延续经典IP《捉鬼敢死队》的情怀之作，也是难得没拍烂的续集。影片直接用原队员的下一代作为主角，各种传承和致敬的场景让人略感振奋。内地片名改了“超能”的字眼，想必是规避一些硬规定。此次故事背景里加了一个古代传说，打败大魔王反正比都市里的小鬼怪更带劲点吧，而且主角还是一群小孩，这种反差有足够的吸引力。最后在影片外的惊喜是小男孩的反串，让人欲罢不能。
看下来还可以，属于大型致敬和情怀现场，棉花糖鬼以及几个老队员的出现确实能让人惊呼。去世演员用CG的形式再度复活，确实把泪点拉满。建议看了前两部再看这一部。三星半。
一镜到底的动作片，爽！室内cqc爽到了！爆米花电影！
这帮孩子大概都是神童吧，不然怎么会一瞬间不加思考的就学会了大量的复杂仪器操作方法，并瞬间洞悉了所有的主线任务。全片无聊到只有超市里的棉花糖精，起到了一丝提神的作用。这样粗制滥造毫不走心的致敬，算不算对逝者的不敬？
从男到女，在到这部小孩主角的，挨个讨好一遍。但是不好笑也不酷，太差了
颇有《怪奇物语》认真讲故事的态度，被各种致敬元素以及老演员集体出镜感动到了。怀念战友Harold ramis。80年代的巨型棉花糖，到这里居然变成了迷你棉花糖战士…
非原作粉会不会觉得结尾（彩蛋）与前作过于紧密，不知所谓？原作粉会不会觉得前半过于缓慢，迟迟不进入正题？比起充满想象力的巨型棉花糖（作为明星萌物，小号回归了一下），“现代”鬼的CG精妙了很多，但起源无趣，最终仅服务于（非原作粉不能理解的）煽情。小演员很好，表现得都很可爱，相对的过于弱化了大人的作用。
这部电影节奏太糟糕了…
再多的致敬梗也不能掩饰失败的节奏。2个小时的电影，50分钟正式出鬼。玩那。
除了镜头上的炫技之外，故事还是比较平缓，用通俗点的话说就是水不拉几，台词水，故事水，战友情刻画的也比较水。要么真实残酷，要么突出情感，但是两点均不沾边。奔着一镜到底的噱头，硬撑着看完的！
“便携式质子加速器。” “灵车再现。”
不错的电影。一镜到底的拍摄手法，感觉比1917要好。枪战动作有CS的感觉。
还不错，有喜剧，有惊悚剧，CG不错，蚁人搞笑也不错。棉花糖宝宝没局的可爱，觉得停可怕的。。。。。。。。
又是情怀片！难得第一部大部分主角聚齐，看见大家都这么老了，好感伤，一晃眼几十年又过去了！Mckenna Grace好酷、原来越有味道了！
前面是儿童片，后面编剧们听到“致敬”二字气晕过去
小白棉花糖人好可爱 怀旧系列 其实还行 以孩子视角走剧情 准备去看一下古早版
啊哈，去接人，结果遇到了恐怖组织来救人，结局如何？whatever
演了个鸡儿，一群菜鸡小鬼，磨蹭了两个小时，就为捉鬼敢死队的再次出现帮忙，这个故事的延伸有何意义，要传承没传承，要精彩程度最差一集，只为后面老友出现的回忆杀，通篇废话连篇，小鬼弄清外公布置机关及废物行动，占据整个篇幅，特效成本节约到不行，一个特效模板反复使用，疫情期间好莱坞几大公司的IP投资能省则省，妄图用最少的钱赚个奇迹，可惜制作和团队疲态尽显，两三年没有过硬的现象级别的制作，只能把动不动就把IP里的老演员拉出来造一波势，无奈曾经的各位角儿也都老态龙钟，越回忆越感伤，眼下的制作环境和市场，除了唏嘘还是唏嘘。★☆
