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
这系列最喜欢的是1，23感觉是瞎拍的，到这一部才又有了点原版的味道
守灵人那场戏我居然看笑了，机械恶魔的故事过于重口味了
没能把握好电影与伪纪录片的界限，犯了和前两部同样的毛病。Rat man和印尼故事给好评，血腥程度很高，整体来说依旧不如系列第一部，但是好过第二和第三部。
女人爽，幸存女孩是俺俩
串场的故事实在是占比太少了，而且主线零散；其实最想说的第三个故事，虽然整体画风上非常的现代与彩色化，但我觉得它在伪纪录的镜头切换上是代入感最强的，而且将那种触摸劣质机械收音设备的质感做出来了，其余三个故事中规中矩，并没有很大的突破点
和3差不多质量，只有一个段落是好的（守灵），其他都不大行，印尼那个感觉过于自嗨到完全格格不入了
我贼喜欢这种类型的电影，好看，编剧和导演脑洞卡卡的
血腥程度够用就是画质太垃，非得用伪纪录片的拍摄方式干什么呢，拍的乱七八糟
第四个当个笑话看看吧，还挺好玩的
恐怖短片4+1，清晰度和恐怖氛围看来在一定程度上是负相关的...这一部又回归了第一部的低画质走得复古风格，反而更有味道了，第三个人体机械改造怪人生猛重口最为出彩。
哈哈哈这片子每个故事个个人都是神经病
变态科学家的故事很nice，鼠人、守夜…太都市鬼故事了。
对第一部无感，因为评价看了最新这部，果然还是内心毫无波澜……机械姬part倒是适合改成第一视角fps
近期的“致命”系列有点多，从致命感应到致命催眠，还是录像带系列最为致命
作为致命录像带爱好者我竟然今天才知道出了第四部 这还是我昨天看完夜间小屋顺着导演摸过来的 我才发现这味道演的作品我几乎都看过 这部在vhs系列里面太平庸了 有点失望
有被吓到了，特别是第一个
远不及致命录像带第一部的水准，当个抖音长vlog看差不多。
除了第三个恐怖版阿丽塔其他的成本也太低了吧
整体故事我没联系起来，但是殡仪馆和实验室的那段比较精彩，这种第一视角的游戏类电影还是代入感不错的。
这次晃得更猛了！几个短篇水平层次不齐自然是难以避免，印尼那位又拿到全场最佳。喜欢Cult片的胖友们，入股此系列不亏
