A s the late Kenny Everett would have said, "It's all in the best possible taste. It's also an entertaining and cheerfully subversive satire on corporate ambition, and on the consequences of suppressing one's sex drive in favour of one's work drive. Natali imagines a highly profitable biotech company, in the not-too-distant future, which uneasily tolerates among its workforce a married couple to whose creative scientific genius it has given a long leash. They are Clive and Elsa, played by Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley , who by thinking outside the box, and by not being overly squeamish about ethical issues, have boosted the company's performance massively, and become celebrities with an interview in Wired magazine. Clive and Elsa have interspliced the DNA of a number of animals, creating a brand new trademarked gene-creature, whose cells can be replicated to create a hugely cost-effective new strain of livestock feed.

Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley as the meddling science couple hold court well, and Delphine Chaneac as the Chimera splicer of the piece really nails all the various emotional strands required for a tricky role. Sadly, SPLICE nowhere equals the quality of that movie, and actually turns out to be a bit lacklustre come the ending. This is like Frankenstein on steroids. We then underwent successively the following story lines: Clive has sex with the creature, the creature dies and is buried, a male variant appears suddenly and rapes Elsa, murders Clive and Elsa finally crushes it with a huge rock.

Many times classics are made this way, and the last time I felt so passionate about a Sci-Fi film, Sigourney Ripley was challenging a certain predator to the ultimate duel. They call it Dren Delphine Chaneac and Elsa is very fond of their creation that grows up fast and showing intelligence. Clive and Dren then have sex, an act which is melodramatically intruded upon by Elsa. The creation could well be a success, but the consequences and the non-calculated risks would again provide abuses and lead to probably a not so happy end. We have a long form story arc that is rich enough to have four films combined in its three acts. The end result isn't a masterpiece but it remains interesting and worth watching for those wanting something different. Child Dren Rest of cast listed alphabetically: Doug Hicton

Co-written and directed by Cube auteur Vincenzo Natali, Splice is an unconventional movie that seems to change style and tone on a scene-by-scene basis. The film is at once a monster romp, sci-fi thought experiment, terrifying parental allegory, and cautionary tale about genetic engineering. Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley star as Clive and Elsa, a pair of implausibly attractive scientists, who have successfully spliced a variety of animal genes to create a disgusting little creature that looks like a slimy slug-brain rich with life-saving proteins.

When the senior management calls off their experiment, they decide to secretly proceed and they generate a life form with human characteristics. Beyond the scientific and ethical issues brought up in the film is an action film unlike anything we have seen before, one that explores the mental and physical connections between the creator and the creature, and this one successful connects the audience to the source material, as we experience wonder, fear, revulsion, disgust, and a series of emotions rarely seen in films anymore.
