最后的科学怪人 ラスト・フランケンシュタイン (1991)

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 youll 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 wont 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. 10/10Also known as "The Last Frankenstein", this is an extraordinary, impeccably produced horror film. Director Takeshi Kawamura uses Mary Shelleys 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 Kawamuras 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 films more curious characters enjoying a precious afternoon at the beach. Kawamura creates resonating visual poetry of horror and sadness barely sighted since Todd Brownings classic "Freaks".Intelligent, emotional, tragic and real, this is an absolute gem. 9/10这部1992年上映的日本电影讲述了一位科学家开始创造新的“超级亚当和夏娃”的故事。来自imdb的评论:这部试图创造一个生物的现代故事是有史以来最好的“恐怖”电影之一，即使它不是一部恐怖电影，而是完全不同的东西。当然，它在我所有伟大电影的短名单上。这部电影是由一个人介绍给我的，他告诉我:“我有一部电影，它可能是你看过的最好的电影之一。”它会让你感动，触动你，让你思考，但如果我告诉你它是什么，它是怎么做的，你会认为这是表面上最愚蠢的事情，你不会看它。”出于好奇，我问他这是什么意思，他说:“嗯，这是一个科学怪人的故事，有一种非常愚蠢的边缘，但它利用了它的优势。”我竖起耳朵，作为一个充满信任的人，我拿起磁带看了看。我被震住了。这部电影讲述的是一个疯狂的科学家在一场毁灭世界的自杀性瘟疫之后，试图创造一个新的亚当和夏娃。把他关在实验室里，他的实验结果和我们想象的不一样。有些是愚蠢的(脖子上的螺栓，摔跤的动作……)，所有这些都是感人的和发人深省的。我怎么推荐这部电影都不为过。如果你愿意接受这部电影，并允许它讲述它的故事，那么我强烈建议你去寻找这部电影并去看它。这是一块未被发现的宝石，将永远与你同在。10个里面有15个，然后还有一些。10/10也被称为“最后的弗兰肯斯坦”，这是一部非凡的，制作完美的恐怖片。导演河村武(Takeshi Kawamura)将玛丽•雪莱(Mary Shelley)的小说仅仅作为一个跳板，探索各种各样的主题，如爱情、欲望、自杀、大众催眠、性、疏离和嫉妒的本质，这些主题既多样又迷人。虽然这部电影充满了潜台词，但它的拍摄手法也令人惊叹，充满了气氛和细节。所有的表演都是惊人的和河村的敏感处理的奇怪，微妙的关系之间的字符导致一个充满感情，充满焦虑的悲剧。这只困惑不安的怪兽在夜间穿越浓雾笼罩的森林的场景令人难忘，也令人印象深刻。影片中一些更好奇的角色在海滩上享受一个宝贵的下午，这段精彩的家庭式蒙太奇也是如此。川村创造了共鸣的视觉诗歌的恐怖和悲伤几乎看不到自托德布朗宁的经典“怪人”。聪明、感性、悲剧、真实，这绝对是一颗宝石。9/10
