Product Description

Clive and Elsa are the best scientists in their field. Splicing together the genes of several animals they have managed to bring into existence a new kind of creature, the protein of which could be highly profitable. But experimenting for a large corporate firm doesn’t satisfy their scientific curiosity. After secretly adding human DNA into their formula Clive and Elsa soon realise they may have made a mistake, a big mistake. A mistake that seems to be aging, growing and transforming at an incredible rate. An uncontrollable mistake that’s about to break loose and rip their world apart into tiny pieces.

Directed by celebrated cult director Vincenzo Natali (Cube, Cypher, Nothing, Getting Gilliam) and starring Adrian Brody (King Kong, Predators), Sarah Polley (Existenz, Dawn Of The Dead) and David Hewlett (Stargate: Atlantis), Splice is an unforgettable sci-fi horror like nothing you’ve ever seen before or will ever see again.

Dr. Frankenstein... Eat Your Heart Out!!!

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2010

Vinceno Natali director of Cube & Cypher, and executive producer Guilermo Del Toro bring us an updated tale of Frankenstein.
The even more "Modern Prometheus" so to speak.
Starring Adrian Brody (The Jacket, King Kong, etc.) as Clive & Sarah Polly (Dawn of the Dead) as Elsa - 2 awful scientists & even worse parents.
Anywho; don't expect much in the way of horror, unless of course you're a parent, in which case expect lots!
It was certainly more sci-fi, which is fine by me.
The creature effects (both adorable at times, sexual at others, but always a wonder to behold) were phenomenal!!
The creme de la creme!!
Dare I say; the best I've seen since Carpenter's "The Thing".
But the gore was almost non-existent.
I would have liked to have seen more about the way Dren (nerd spelled backwards) hunted,
and more use of its abilities: like it's amphibious lungs, it's wings, it's scorpion-like tail, and its Kermit the frog eyes -
though I must admit, I did love it's evolution into each stage.
What started out as a worm, turned into a rabbit, turned into a child, turned into a rebellious blossoming teenage creature hell bent on sex & destruction - all at an accelerated rate.
Every instance it was on the brink of death it evolved into something even more marvelous.
Definitely akin to Frankenstein with the exception that Dr. Frankenstein never used a piece of himself in his creation,
well that and and the good doctor never got busy with his monster.
Can you imagine??
Adrian Brody what were you thinking?

Here's the skinny:
A couple (both unscientific scientists) with the worst parenting abilities ever,
(thank god they decided against having children)
in an effort to discover, I don't know what, a protein of some nature?
It's hard to tell because everything is referred to as combinations of numbers & letters,
Well they create two tumor-looking worm sacks,
cute worm sacks - the type you want to hug, and then drop on the floor & stomp.
But they get overly ambitious, and behind all their colleagues backs create a being with the genetic properties of multiple species,
(including Elsa's) named Dren.
But Dren keeps growing, & evolving eventually beyond their control,
and like any teenager, she becomes as rebellious as her parents.
So they have to move Dren into Elsa's childhood home...
an abandoned farmhouse,
a very uncontrolled environment, where they try to raise it as a child instead of an experiment.

To say the least, I loved this movie!!
It had its flaws (as does every flick),
It lagged in the middle, like a computer laden with internet porn,
but it was always a sight to behold even at the slow parts.
It's an absolute must-see for sci-fi horror fans.
It was like InAlienable except a zillion times better.
For fans - have no fear... there will almost certainly be a sequel.
Hooray for me!! Hooray for you!!

**WARNING**
If violence toward animals bothers you,
there is one scene where an animal of a certain cuddly variety is killed, rather quickly & violently.
And for those that hate rape... well there's some of that as well.

MORAL OF THE STORY:
A parent does more than create... a parent also sacrifices.

ALSO RECOMMENDED:
Cube, Cypher, Species, Sick Girl (MOH), InAlienable, The Fly, Mimic, Isolation, Grace, The Unborn, It's Alive

Fascinating and Unexpected

Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2023

In light of all the explicit violence and gratuitous sex that we're besieged by in most movies, Splice really isn't particularly shocking - yes, a cat is killed and there's a sex scene with mildly incestuous overtones between human male Brody and adolescent alien hottie Chaneac, but I thought it was actually kind of beautiful... and very much the kind of mistake that we humans would make.

Throughout the film scientific ethics get cast aside as our married protagonists wrestle with their yearnings for a child - even one spliced together from Polley's and various and sundry bird and amphibian DNA - and their attempts to realize their joint professional ambition to solve human disease through exotic genetic research.

At least until the end, the movie doesn't succumb to the usual genre cliches of people being picked off by the monster, chase scenes, etc. Instead, the film invites us to fall in love with the creature which we follow from infancy to toddlerhood (skittererhood?), to confused and moody teenager. When Brody introduces Dren to dancing and shows her a few ballroom moves, she's as entranced as any adolescent girl basking in the light of her father's attentions.
Of course sprinkled throughout the film are the foreboding little hints of future mayhem: Dren's sinuous tail with its mercurial hypodermic claw, her manic willful eyebrows, ready to challenge all authority... and of course her wild animal strength and lightening speed.
But in the end we know that - like many a monster before her - she's not meant for this world, and her end will be both sad and banal.
With, however a nice plot twist in the final scene.

I recommend this surprisingly low-key, unpretentious but well-crafted film.

At First, Got it Confused with "The Human Centipede" (yuck!)

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2013

I thought it was unusual finding Adrien Brody in this sci-fi movie, and after watching it, I was certain he'd been miscast. His was the only familiar face; I think this was a Canadian production. His character (Clive) and his girlfriend (Elsa), who is played pretty well by actress Sarah Polley are genetic engineers involved in splicing DNA. I don't remember the movie actually saying why they were doing this, but they manage to create two living creatures that resemble a moving armfull of humongously lumpy loaf of bread, one male and the other female. Elsa spills it to the CEO about being able to harvest proteins from these creatures that will lead to cures for many previously incurable diseases. This is a drug company they work for with a name I assume is an acronym, NERD. Secretly, Clive and Elsa are also working on creating some life form whose genetic structure doesn't take hold until Elsa quietly slips a sample of her own DNA into the mix. It works, and the little lump starts growing. Meanwhile the two main creatures, named Ginger and Fred have grown, bonded and all seems well, but it's not really noticed that Ginger is slowly turning into a male. During a company presentation of Ginger and Fred to a room filled with a lot of important people I assume, unbeknownst to anyone, Ginger has become completely male. When the partition between the two is removed, a sharp fang extends out of their "mouths" and the two duke it out. Instead of the audience seeing Fred and Ginger get it on (I guess), they use their fangs to rip each other to pieces. Blood splashes everywhere and the violence of the fight causes the big glass case they're in to tip over toward the audience. The glass shatters and those who didn't have sense enough to get up and leave, which is all of them, are showered with blood and broken glass.

Clive and Elsa are obviously in major trouble for the fiasco. But their own little experiment, spurred on by Elsa has produced a fast growing sort of human child with no hair, eyes on each side of her head, and instead of normal legs, she has chicken legs from the knees down. I knew the legs were CG, but I couldn't figure out the eyes. They looked like normal human eyes and she had to turn her head one way or the other to see. She also has a tail with a long, sharp hook which was initially kept covered up. Clive's younger brother who also works at the drug company, is very nosey and very curious as to what Clive and Elsa are doing. He breaks into their lab, and is knocked down by Dren, which is Nerd spelled backwards. The younger brother whose name I don't recall tells Clive that Dren has to go because they have to vacate the premises, and only work in their regular lab. As they argue about where to go, whose fault everything is, Elsa is comforting Dren (Delphine Chaneac) who is now fully grown. She still owns the farm where she grew up, so Dren is taken there and housed in the barn. Dren shows remarkable intelligence, but is bored having to stay inside all the time. She breaks through the glass on the roof, and as Elsa and Clive beg her to come down, Dren has moved to the edge of the roof and nearly falls off, but suddenly sprouts wings. The next time she gets out is after a fight with Elsa, who has been showing little patience with Dren's escapades. While Elsa is on the floor, Dren covers her and with her hooked tail, removes the chain around Elsa's neck that has the key. It's a sunny day and when Dren steps out, she's all smiles at being free at last. Elsa sneaks up behind her with a shovel, and clobbers her on the head, knocking her unconscious.

When Clive comes home and walks into the barn, he sees Dren stretched out naked on a table with her arms and feet tied down. On the end of her tail is a bloody bandage; Elsa has cut it off because of the danger it poses. Clive wants to know what's going on, and Elsa, no longer the loving mother figure, tells him that Dren has become too dangerous. She leaves the barn, and Clive covers Dren up, who's obviously in pain and comforts her.

I don't want to spoil the ending, other than to say these scientists have a bad habit of not watching what they're doing, and they don't seem to learn from their mistakes. I don't know if I'd recommend this movie. I liked it, but sometimes I'm very easy to please. After seeing Dren as a toddler, I wanted to see the extras included in the DVD. As suspected, whenever the grown Dren was on screen, she was wearing blue screen stockings that extended over her knees. Blue and green screen are used whenever CG is involved. But nothing was ever said about the child who played Dren as a toddler. If anyone knows, please tell me.
