If you’re interested in genetic research or science in general you might remember an article that came out a couple of years ago about a group of scientists intending to revive the woolly mammoth. And the results will indeed be different… Desperate, they decide to try something different. However, their experiments are not working out.
This new creature could provide answers and cures for many diseases. They want to create a new lifeform by splicing the DNA elements of different animals together.
And that’s all I’m going to say as I want you to enjoy it fully, just like I did.Ĭlive and Elsa are two genetic scientists working on the next big thing. So, you can expect a strong sexual and erotic component to this science fiction movie. Splice offers a human story warped by tribal instincts. I don’t want you to think that this is some boring scientific meditation on the morality of experimentation because it’s most certainly not. And I think that it won’t surprise you that Guillermo del Toro ( Cronos, Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth) was one of the executive producers. He was waiting for the special effects to become believable and the wait was fucking worth it. Vincenzo Natali wrote the script after he finished shooting Cube and had twelve long years to work on it. You might not like it, you might find it repulsive and disgusting but you cannot deny its power. It’s masterfully directed and visually arresting but the story is what’s going to get you.

And don’t let the IMDb score fool you, Splice is definitely a movie worth watching. However, what it does best is portray human nature and how it interacts with its environment. The movie intentionally remains ambiguous, offering few answers and a whole lot of questions. Even now we have tests we conduct on animals although the awareness about that particular aspect is now at an all-time high. The moral implications have always been something science and experiments had to grapple with. And that realization is frightening but not as frightening as the notion that this might be happening in some hidden lab right now. Used in combination with practical effects, they’re so seamless and believable that after a while you’ll treat them as natural. Splice is a movie featuring stunning special effects that bring this whole thing to another level. I dare not go any further but I urge you to. The cold laboratory environment is contrasting this strange creature slowly becoming aware of its existence. We see a bunch of scientists delivering a living organism that looks like nothing you’ve seen before. It’s going to grab you by the throat from minute one as the opening scene poses so many questions. Splice is a disturbingly creepy science fiction horror movie offering a refreshing take on the age-old concept of scientists going too far. In this sea of mediocre and familiar science fiction and horror movies, it’s difficult to find the ones that are different.
