The movie “Splice” is about to become reality.
IMHO, a vastly underappreciated movie. Shades of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, a cautionary tale about the temptation to play God, and an exploration of the theme of technology outstripping ethics: should something be done merely because it becomes possible.
I think it also had a biblical allusion to Gen. 6:1-4. Dren transitions from something of almost angelic grace and elegance to something demonic, ultimately impregnating Elsa at the end of the movie.
I think it was a complex, multi-layered story that probably went over the heads of most movie goers and critics.
