As a scientist I can confirm that one of the first things we would do would be to poke it. We'd have a follow-up to that, but yes we would probably poke it
Whaaaaaaa? you mean you don't have sex with your weird mutant daughter only for your weird mutant daughter to turn into a male, kill you and then have sex with their mother? Happens all the time where I'm from.
*me, just reading the title without having heard of the movie*: Vegetarian dinosaur goes to college, falls in love with personality-less Chris Pratt and sneaks into his room while he sleeps in addition to a million more creepy things- later turns him into a dinosaur and they live happy ever after damn wtf
I have an ex (keyword ex) who LOVED this movie. She thought it was the sexiest movie on the planet. Now that I think about it, all of her favorite films had themes of incest...
I mean, I think anyone can enjoy, or at least respect the movie for what it's going for...and yes the design of the creature plays up the uncanny/sexy factor ... but you're not meant to be aroused, but rather disturbed. Or at least "disturbed I hate myself for being aroused this is so wrong stop this..." So yeah, finding this legit sexy is a red flag.
True story. I watched this at the movies with my mother who I barely see as a get together to catch up. We just thought it'd a be a interesting sci fi flick and we always went to the movies growing up. I'm a dude and was in my early 20's at the time. It was pretty awkward after the movie and to this day we never talked about it. It was the last time we saw a movie together. She's still alive, we just don't do that anymore. Thanks, Splice for making things weird for me and my estranged mom with your weird double incest.
You think that's weird than you should have seen Species (1995-2007) when we were young we first saw it because of our older sibling he said that it's a awesome film so awesome that it's Aliens (1986) and The Thing (1982) levels types of awesome oh boy we were wrong our sibling play his cruel tricks on us again after we finished the movie we were weirded out by it we ask our selfs does this movie even have a plot & does it originally came from Japan?
As an actual biologist, this movie made me more mad about the utterly stupid misrepresentations of how research works than the first Planet of the Apes trilogy movie.

Poking is a legit way of testing in science. Here is an example: After feeding the king penguin, scientists wait for a time period until penguins fall asleep and then poke them with a stick in order to see how easy it is to wake them up. This supposedly helps them understand penguins phases of sleep and metabolism...
@@juniperrodley9843 it's both. Like how chemists (am a chemist) like to poke sodium and potassium metals if you have to cut it up. Obviously not in water.
When I saw the thumbnail and title I was like "oh cool, something I never saw before I'm safe" But as I was watching the video, it awakened a dormant memory from deep within my brain and it turns out I did actually watch this and was so traumatized by it that I just blocked it out entirely.
@@melissandrenanette8594 apparently I watched it with my best friend and the only reason she wasn't traumatized is that she spent the entire time laughing at my reactions instead of watching the movie 😂
I thought oh I've seen this movie, but seeing made me be like wait no I haven't.... So now I'm wondering if I repressed it or if I saw a sequel or something
@@Victor_Graves not really clive the nastiest mf of the movie he literally messed up the childhood of dren and he would have never touched her it would've been normal.
Moses Gonzalez I personally wish it was shorter. I got what the scene was interpreting and the foreshadowing but in light of Hollywood being coaxed with pedophiles, I’d be okay with living without it lmao
We gunna ignore the fact that she got pregnant with HERSELF at the end of the movie??? It was said that she used a splice of her own DNA for the organism so that means THOSE BABIES WILL BE TERRIFYING AND HORRIBLY MISFORMED
@@TheMistressMisery nope bc it has some of her dna not fully her dna, more like a child than a clone, and so like amanda sayed it is kind of incest then and yep, it would probably make the babies even worse
No. Sometimes sexual stuff can even add to horror. Maybe if the characters were actually smart and this movie was written with more than 1 braincell it'd be good
@@dnw009 obviously, one can. one can do horror with a high level of violence. One can do horror where no violence occurs. One can do horror where none dies, and one can do horror where most of humanity is wiped out at the end... one can do horror without a hint of sex, and one can do horror all focused on sexual violence, be it metaphorically (alien) or in plain text. I agree that presenting sexual violence in a direct way is very tricky to do in a way that doesn't feel exploitative... which is why most horror on the topic tends to rely on metaphor instead of having rape as an explicit part of the narrative. Nonetheless I think boundary pushing is vital to creation, even if the experiment doesn't completely succeed. I've watched this movie a long time ago. I don't remember it all well, and I don't "love " it. Doesn't mean I don't respect what it's going for.
@@sinimaijala1742 I think it's because the highest levels of fucked up in this movie are the kind that most kids don't have the world experience to even understand yet, I know I definitely didn't understand how fucked up it was that they did the do because I didn't understand and of the nuances of why it was such a bad thing for the guy to do. Edit: honestly can't remember the order of how that happened but either way they were both practically parents to the thing so it counts either way
Hentai fan here my pregnant sister and me are looking for actual scary movie's, and I tell my sister straight faced the movie the entire time and I was just in utter disgust cause I've se en enough hentai plots to know exactly what was about to go down, I'm just sitting there expecting SOMETHING from my sister disgust, uncertainty, confusion anything and she's just like "it's just a movie" and I just sit there and pounder how my sister is using my own lango against me I now definitely understand other people's perspective when viewing certain hentai.
I thought this was a horror movie about science going too far and she realizes she's better than mankind so seeks to replace them I wish that's what it was
That's absolutely what it was, and I think all the creepiness was intentional, so I don't understand what's the fuss all about. I'm not a fan of this movie, but I think it's absolutely fine and, to it's credit, the concept is very original.
Art Profil Serbian film wasn’t even intense. It was just trying to shock the audience as much as possible to the point where it had me rolling my eyes. Hope the other movies are better tho
I still find it hilarious that this is one of the few movies where the corporate guy tries to *dissuade* them from doing crazy human experiments at the beginning. When the guy who in almost every other horror movie would be a greedy asshole with no morals is telling you you're going too far, you KNOW it might be a good idea to stop whatever it is you're doing.
it was gross, but in it's defense it intended to be, the whole point was that the characters took all the wrong decisions and did something bad and then the consecuences bit them in the ass, hard. it ended bad for them, so i would not really compare it to twilight that it's gross while intending to be romantic and have a happy ending where the main characters are rewarded for their shitty behavior instead of punished.
I just watched it and I didn't rlly feel uncomfortable? I mean yeah it was weird ig I mean he had sex with it but like I didn't feel creeped out at the end of it? Just another sci fi/alien movie. This movie has nothing on the Serbian film. I was kinda disappointed I thought this would be scarier as everyone keeps saying but it's rlly not
@@awesomearsam1890 a movie with similar premises could be the "Species" series, which started right between the '90s and 2000 period. Also, the monster design was made by HR Giger himself
@@awesomearsam1890 I don't know about MOVIES, but that used to be such a trope in bad fanfic. Long before your One Directions were buying teenagers, there was Spliced Abused Animal Furry Draco/Harry fanfics. They've all probably been purged off of the internet by now, lmao. I feel very old, I was reading fanfiction in 2005.
BRO FR I HAVE RLLY O L D MEMORIES OF WATCHING THIS WITH MY WHOLE FAMILY AND I REMEMBER WHAT THE THING LOOKED LIKE AND A BARN AND PUTTING S PILLOW ON MY EYES AND HAVING REWATCHED IT I HATE MY LIFE
Oh my fucking god, the incest part terrified and upset me so much that I had nightmares of being in the perspective of the monster experiment and forced me to visualise doing shit with my own father. Never in my life had I cried so bad, and I feel sorry for my poor father who doesn't know why the hell I started avoiding him at that time. Seriously, this was the movie that introduced me to incest and it genuinely became a fear of mine.
I saw Splice on a double date. The other couple had picked Slither last time, so we picked Splice this time. I swear to God I thought it was going to be a straightforward monster movie. When we all walked out of the theater my buddy shook his head and said "Dude, that was just wrong".
This confirmed my desire to dedicate a video to Breaking Dawn Also because some people don't understand what Dren says at the end, it's 'inside' - which calls back to when Elsa says that there's a part of her in Dren. So it's next level gross
@Turquoise Cheetah feel free to go without numerous modern pharmaceuticals and vaccinations then. I'm not saying it's right but it's a bit of a necessary evil. Also if you eat meat there's really no difference between livestock farming and lab testing.
The SCP foundation would have had all the events of this film, Elsa, Dren’s corpse, and Elsa’s incest child filed as an anomaly and sent to a site immediately.
I remember a MST of Jurassic Park smut. I really hope that the original writer created it as a joke, but you never know with the internet. It was... something.
The scientists are always like "let's do eugenics" and the programmers and engineers are always like "let's do AI" and it always ends up worse for us, and they never learn.
Naw man, we don't play god. We just try to understand human biology, develop drugs/vaccine based on it and then spend eternity trying to convince people that its there to help them ( and it does not cause autism)😒😒
At first I thought the monster was “cute”…. That perception of it changed SO fast. It went from “Ok this is going to be a sad horror movie” to “This movie is so messed up and I wish I could go back to not knowing this movie exists” And I haven’t watched the actual movie I just watched Movie explain videos Those videos have now scared me into not watching the movie
My cousin and I and a bunch of his friends went to see this in theaters when it came out. We were excited for weeks about it cause the trailer made it look badass. Did not allude to the sexual shitshow at all. We stayed for the whole thing but I remember we all just walked out in silence and didn't say anything for a good 3 minutes before finally just being like "well let's never talk about that again"
My brother introduced me to “Splice” by telling me that every time I thought it had hit its low point, it hadn’t. And he was right. Thank you for being the first RUclipsr to not love this film. Edited to say that these corporate scientists are so bad at science and not wasting money.
Yeah I don't know why it gets praise it's a weird movie. Just because "oohh it's so different" uh you mean bizarre af??? That doesn't make it a really good plot. I wish they took the concept in a totally different direction.
So we're just gonna ignore the fact that he saw Dren watching them do the nasty, and then continued doing the nasty while watching her watch them? Yes please thank you
It questions why he was so keen on getting close to dren. I suspected from a young age he was grooming her and now as a 27 year old woman I can confirm brody was grooming dren. She was easy to manipulate,was attached to him,she's a groomers wet dream
@@missvoorhees7964 its a possibility in this instance it could have been viewed like a pet not a person. i also wonder if there wasnt some kind of pheromone or psychic manipulation going on, that would better explain some of the characters actions and their flips in behavior regarding the creature. but i suppose it could a mad scientist versions of jeffery epstein and ghislaine maxwell, not that this movie needs to get any creepier.
@@missvoorhees7964 That is so wrong. He isn't a groomer. He didn't try to manipulate her. He wanted her dead until he got attached. Both him and the wife just got more fucked as time goes on.
I felt so sad for Dren. She was a loving creature in a world she wasn't allowed to live in. This is the ultimate version of the childhood objection, 'I didn't ask to be born'. Of course, all the sexual stuff was outlandish and ruined what could have been a fascinating movie.
@@ckline5486 or in my view, at least treat what you make with the same love for a human child and be good parents. Dren nor Adam would have been monsters if they'd been shown love and care.
What are you, a chicken? Wait, don't answer that. A lab-grown hybrid homunculus having sex with its creator before murdering him and straight up r*ping its mother is.. Actually quite bonkers, not going to lie. Creating a combustible lemon to burn someone's house down can be justified with enough context, but this.. This concept terrifies me.
So I guess this horror movie succeeded in scaring you? Although it's more of mental disturbance than a jump scar lol. Don't look up the half human and chimpanzee experiments btw
@@salted6422 ahah chicken😂 i actually love horror movies but this one is just disturbing, like those movies that push boundaries which i suppose was the directors point
"no one wants to F the dinosaurs" Well we got at least one more Jurassic World movie, they could squeeze that in some where. maybe with a raptor and Pratt.
I find it repetitive that so many sci-fi and horror films that has the “woman can’t get pregnant/lost a child” theme. This movie, along with Aliens, Prometheus, Arrival, Gravity, etc. have this. Spoilers, by the way.
@@prixe12 Not every woman, but a lot of woman. Hell, even a lot of dudes want kids. It also definitely seems like the sort of thing that if you were unable to have kids that would only increase your desires to have them.
So, I'm a woman with no interest in having kids and never had an interest in having kids. Hell ... at the rate I'm going, I probably won't have an interest in having kids, ...and to be honest, I kind of get it. The idea that my choice to have a kid or not being taken away from me is a bit revolting. Maybe I'm just feeling some kind of sympathy. Like ... I'd find it horrible if I was suddenly pregnant, I can see why someone who would want to get pregnant would find it horrible if her uterus just walked away. To me, it isn't about life decisions as much as choice and being in control of one's own body. That being said, it is still an overdone trope.
@@nevermore7285 so then why isn't it a thing in media that men can't have kids? there are men and women who can't have kids, there are men and women who want kids, but it's only a trope that women are infertile and distraught over it. bc it's a thing society considers as the value of women and bc women are usually blamed if a couple can't have kids.
the thing actually was rapping her. I watched that movie when I was 11 or 12 years old thinking It would be a scyfy movie, not a weird horror movie... It Disturbed me for weeks... . Notifications disabled to ignore ignorant people
Weirdly enough, I thought it's a nice horror about a creature who escaped the lab at first. The design of the child creature was adorable as heck, and the adult was disturbing... But then I found out what ACTUALLY happened in the movie and.. Yeaah...
I remember seeing the movie when it came out in theaters. I thought it was more silly than disturbing, mostly due to the acting and general plot (and also being an edgy "I'm too cool to be disturbed" teenager at the time). However, my impression of what the director wanted was probably him trying to show how depraved humans can become in their quest for discovery. They threw away all moral boundaries but they also succumbed to blind desire, whether it be scientific or carnal lust. In a way, he achieved that. But, at the same time, his method came off as gratuitous rather than meaningful.
Yes. Dren was cute. Until the switch up thing where she became he and he raped his Mom. That was just weird. Even animals don't get with their moms. Afaik. I could be wrong.
Yeah that's a great way to put it. It feels gratuitous and often times voyeuristic. I think the building blocks were there as mentioned, but then it just goes off the rails for me
I remember my cousin choosing this movie to watch at the theatres. I still remind him to this date-more than 10 years later-that he’s not allowed to choose the movies after I sat through this nightmare.
Never watched the movie but that's what I guessed when I saw his vision was all blurry and weird in the clip she showed lol. Many animals emit pheromones to mate so it makes sense
@@drunkpunch7334 I would have said the characterization of the mains would have been a bigger issue. Both were poorly written and then the rape, sexual jealousy of "daughter", and incest just was the next step on the WTH scale.
Ngl the movie had me at first because I’m a sucker for sci fi hybrid shit, and I saw Dren’s design before actually watching, and she looked cool. But oh boy. Oh boy... There’s a specific scene in the movie where the two scientists have sex, and Dren is watching, and the dude is watching HER. I knew what was coming. But knowing did not prepare me for it. And the ending was genuinely awful for me to watch. Especially considering how the way it was all framed, especially the sex scenes, it makes it feel like SOMEONE behind the scenes had a kink for this. Edit: me and you are on the same wavelengths
@@sharksmybeloved5030 It's called "Root Her" and I haven't been able to find a link (might have been removed) but I do know a few dramatic readings exist on RUclips!
Don't watch it bud I fond it on RUclips some how I'm still messed up because of it and I'm 14 so for years it will be in my head god help you if you watch it
I watched The Pianist a month before this movie, and I cannot come to a conclusion how Adrien Brody could include this movie on his resume and still have a chance for such a serious role. Good for him tho, I guess.
@@OppositeofHATE7 Right? His career was definitely hurt, in Hollywood once actors do more than three terrible movies they get benched. Sure, they'll get roles in and there but their comeback has to be very strong. It won't be the same for him.
I think Adrien Brody just thought well i win an Oscar and create new heights (him winning at 29 y/o making him the youngest) and he is just like not gonna try as hard anymore which is unfortunate but i still think he is a good actor just because of that performance, also the only good movies he's in after the oscar is the WAnderson's collabo and that one Woody Allen movie
You know how some movies just STICK with you over the years?? This is one of those movies. It wasn't high budget, I kinda hated it (in a good way if that makes sense?) And yet I still think of it randomly every couple of months. I only watched it once, when it came out, but I remembered most of it. Strange.

yeah, nah, theres better media that gets this message across. this was just the director's sick fantasy
@@Victor_Graves not really clive the nastiest mf of the movie he literally messed up the childhood of dren and he would have never touched her it would've been normal.

Y’all traumatized about the sexual parts.

Edit: sorry ma that I put you on blast 😭
yeah no movie should have animals killed in it, fk this movie back to hell
@@visitjessiechan 100% agreed! I feel the same sentiment when a rape is shown.
Your parents let ya watch this as a kid?
I though my parents were awesome for letting me watch children of the corn when I was 9 :D

@@Shattered_Fawn so ya probably only saw 30% of the film =)
"I feel like I was terribly depressed in 2009" So was the world's economy, so you're in good company.
Wasn't that in 2008?
@@SwiftNimblefoot it started in 2008 and went through a few years. 2009 was probably the worst
Bad time for all of us haha
Many people were depressed in 2009 and I bet it's this movie's fault
I didn’t know about this movie until 2011 and it still messed me up.
Brave of you to assume that this movie is a cause rather than a symptom of that depression...
I don’t consider it a symptom of my depression, because I don’t have a depression in the first place.
Burn it
Also, the financial crisis. Splice and the financial crisis gave me clinical depression
At least you watched this at home, comfortably. I saw it in theaters in high school. With my mom.
That’s a bruh moment right there
Wow
I watched it with my cousin and I haven’t talked to her in years after that…
What went through the guys head "she's not my biological daughter, free real estate!" that scene was uncomfortable and disgusting
Maybe the spliced humanoid gave off strong pheromones that are irresistible to humans. And to reinforce this theory, he said no to her several times
Moses Gonzalez I personally wish it was shorter. I got what the scene was interpreting and the foreshadowing but in light of Hollywood being coaxed with pedophiles, I’d be okay with living without it lmao
I mean she had dna of the woman he liked sooo
We gunna ignore the fact that she got pregnant with HERSELF at the end of the movie??? It was said that she used a splice of her own DNA for the organism so that means THOSE BABIES WILL BE TERRIFYING AND HORRIBLY MISFORMED
....wouldnt that have been a clone...technically?
@@TheMistressMisery nope bc it has some of her dna not fully her dna, more like a child than a clone, and so like amanda sayed it is kind of incest then and yep, it would probably make the babies even worse
Omg 😦
Yeah that's kinda why incest, especially parent to child, is real fucked up.
I dont wanna see this movie anymore.
I thought this movie had an interesting concept, but damn, the execution of it was so perverse.
It's kind of the point, right?
@@maximeteppe7627 I mean one can do horror without going into sexual aspects. And I mean the actual rape scenes not the nude scenes.
No. Sometimes sexual stuff can even add to horror. Maybe if the characters were actually smart and this movie was written with more than 1 braincell it'd be good
@@dnw009 obviously, one can.
one can do horror with a high level of violence. One can do horror where no violence occurs. One can do horror where none dies, and one can do horror where most of humanity is wiped out at the end... one can do horror without a hint of sex, and one can do horror all focused on sexual violence, be it metaphorically (alien) or in plain text.
I agree that presenting sexual violence in a direct way is very tricky to do in a way that doesn't feel exploitative... which is why most horror on the topic tends to rely on metaphor instead of having rape as an explicit part of the narrative. Nonetheless I think boundary pushing is vital to creation, even if the experiment doesn't completely succeed.
I've watched this movie a long time ago. I don't remember it all well, and I don't "love " it. Doesn't mean I don't respect what it's going for.
watched this movie last year and it really just feels like it got horror mixed up with uncomfortable and relied mostly on shock value
Finding out her lungs were amphibious was like when I found out my toaster was water proof.
Oh, fudge!
Well shit, way to take this to a real dark place, dude!
HAH
Uh oh

Can't you do even one thing right? :( Who producers waterproof toasters. Takes the fun out if taking a bath.
Me watching this movie when I was 11 realizing that isn't a Kid movie: 👁️👄👁️
OMG! ❤️
D:
Wait, it wasn't???
Same happened to me... still wondering how I wasn’t traumatized by this :D
@@sinimaijala1742 I think it's because the highest levels of fucked up in this movie are the kind that most kids don't have the world experience to even understand yet, I know I definitely didn't understand how fucked up it was that they did the do because I didn't understand and of the nuances of why it was such a bad thing for the guy to do.
Edit: honestly can't remember the order of how that happened but either way they were both practically parents to the thing so it counts either way
In 2009, I was an innocent seven-year old boy living an innocent life not knowing about the economic depression.
I remember watching this movie in 2011, I only watched because Adrien Brody was in it.
However liked this comment, god bless them during this difficult times.
and now you’re 17?!?!? Me tooooo🙀
asha g no I am 18, but good estimation anyway.
in 2009, i was a small innocent baby who never knew this existed until now
This movie is like if a film student read a lot of Freud and said "I wanna do a Frankenstein movie" AAAANND BOY HOWDY!!!
no
*Freudstein intensifies*
I heard it described as playing God meets playing house.
The reason the "mother" Flips to the cold dynamic from the wholesome mom, is because a lot of abusive mothers do that.
As someone with a similar mother dynamic, yea its pretty accurate
So in short: it started as a legit horror movie but then turned into a live action take on the average hentai tropes.
Except the thing was NOT a hot big tiddy anime girl, it was just gross
Alex anime girls in real life will look like that thing tbh
Lori Milk especially since a lot of them are.... underage.... 👀
Micah Cook 👀
Hentai fan here my pregnant sister and me are looking for actual scary movie's, and I tell my sister straight faced the movie the entire time and I was just in utter disgust cause I've se en enough hentai plots to know exactly what was about to go down, I'm just sitting there expecting SOMETHING from my sister disgust, uncertainty, confusion anything and she's just like "it's just a movie" and I just sit there and pounder how my sister is using my own lango against me I now definitely understand other people's perspective when viewing certain hentai.
I thought this was a horror movie about science going too far and she realizes she's better than mankind so seeks to replace them
I wish that's what it was
That's absolutely what it was, and I think all the creepiness was intentional, so I don't understand what's the fuss all about. I'm not a fan of this movie, but I think it's absolutely fine and, to it's credit, the concept is very original.
That is what it was, they just executed it terribly
Same. Please just kill us and stop the pain
That's species that your thinking of
I mean, there is an anime like that. It’s called Elfen Lied.
I was like “Oh this movie doesn’t seem that bad- - Oh, OH NO”
Fuscipes It wasn’t scary. It wasn’t deeply engaging. I forgot it the moment the movie ended.
Well, at least you can say it's unique
Art Profil Serbian film wasn’t even intense. It was just trying to shock the audience as much as possible to the point where it had me rolling my eyes. Hope the other movies are better tho
Same bro same
honestly the most disturbing parts to me were the sex and rape, without that is was just a cool sci-fi horror
I still find it hilarious that this is one of the few movies where the corporate guy tries to *dissuade* them from doing crazy human experiments at the beginning. When the guy who in almost every other horror movie would be a greedy asshole with no morals is telling you you're going too far, you KNOW it might be a good idea to stop whatever it is you're doing.
Splice is one of the only movies I've seen that left me feeling uncomfortable and gross for days after watching it.
it was gross, but in it's defense it intended to be, the whole point was that the characters took all the wrong decisions and did something bad and then the consecuences bit them in the ass, hard. it ended bad for them, so i would not really compare it to twilight that it's gross while intending to be romantic and have a happy ending where the main characters are rewarded for their shitty behavior instead of punished.
You’ve obviously never seen A Serbian Film
Same.
Addie B I felt more uncomfortable Splice than A Serbian film because at least I knew what what I was walking in beforehand.
I just watched it and I didn't rlly feel uncomfortable? I mean yeah it was weird ig I mean he had sex with it but like I didn't feel creeped out at the end of it? Just another sci fi/alien movie. This movie has nothing on the Serbian film. I was kinda disappointed I thought this would be scarier as everyone keeps saying but it's rlly not
This movie just feels like someone had an alien fetish and wanted to make it a regular movie lol
Sounds like a 2000’s era fanfiction. The splicing science and questionable sex scenes were rampant back then.
Wait, are you saying that there are similar movies like this?!
boy did I keep my innocence back then
@@awesomearsam1890 a movie with similar premises could be the "Species" series, which started right between the '90s and 2000 period. Also, the monster design was made by HR Giger himself
I knowwww I heard her mention like a human animal hybrid and thought of the Maximum Ride books 😂
@@diddoinarow8846 yeah. This movie made me think of Species when i 1st saw it, down to the exploitative human on monster hybrid sex
@@awesomearsam1890 I don't know about MOVIES, but that used to be such a trope in bad fanfic. Long before your One Directions were buying teenagers, there was Spliced Abused Animal Furry Draco/Harry fanfics. They've all probably been purged off of the internet by now, lmao. I feel very old, I was reading fanfiction in 2005.
Imagine how I felt when I WATCHED THIS WITH MY PARENTS
BRO FR I HAVE RLLY O L D MEMORIES OF WATCHING THIS WITH MY WHOLE FAMILY AND I REMEMBER WHAT THE THING LOOKED LIKE AND A BARN AND PUTTING S PILLOW ON MY EYES AND HAVING REWATCHED IT I HATE MY LIFE
_Oh no_

Oh my fucking god, the incest part terrified and upset me so much that I had nightmares of being in the perspective of the monster experiment and forced me to visualise doing shit with my own father. Never in my life had I cried so bad, and I feel sorry for my poor father who doesn't know why the hell I started avoiding him at that time. Seriously, this was the movie that introduced me to incest and it genuinely became a fear of mine.
HOLY FUCK GL WITH THAT MY GUY BC UR NEVER GONNA LIVE THAT DOWN-
I saw Splice on a double date. The other couple had picked Slither last time, so we picked Splice this time. I swear to God I thought it was going to be a straightforward monster movie. When we all walked out of the theater my buddy shook his head and said "Dude, that was just wrong".
Well that's a date to forever remember for sure.
Damn splice and slither are are great double feature

@@Retinen1 No, she's just a human clone.
thewhat
i feel like this is a reference and now i want to know what it is a reference to.
This confirmed my desire to dedicate a video to Breaking Dawn
Also because some people don't understand what Dren says at the end, it's 'inside' - which calls back to when Elsa says that there's a part of her in Dren. So it's next level gross
Don't duck your research.
I really thought you'd say "Mommy Dearest"again, but maybe you're to young for that reference.

At first I thought the monster was “cute”…. That perception of it changed SO fast. It went from “Ok this is going to be a sad horror movie” to “This movie is so messed up and I wish I could go back to not knowing this movie exists”
And I haven’t watched the actual movie I just watched Movie explain videos
Those videos have now scared me into not watching the movie
My cousin and I and a bunch of his friends went to see this in theaters when it came out. We were excited for weeks about it cause the trailer made it look badass. Did not allude to the sexual shitshow at all. We stayed for the whole thing but I remember we all just walked out in silence and didn't say anything for a good 3 minutes before finally just being like "well let's never talk about that again"
Ahahahahah
It's one of those things that you keep watching just because you're so disgusted and freaked out
Me and my brother watched this and we decided that Dren looks kind of like if mew and a sewer rat had a child
My brother introduced me to “Splice” by telling me that every time I thought it had hit its low point, it hadn’t. And he was right. Thank you for being the first RUclipsr to not love this film.
Edited to say that these corporate scientists are so bad at science and not wasting money.
Sounds like regular corperate scientists
R&D means 'wasting' money..
Yeah I don't know why it gets praise it's a weird movie. Just because "oohh it's so different" uh you mean bizarre af??? That doesn't make it a really good plot. I wish they took the concept in a totally different direction.

So we're just gonna ignore the fact that he saw Dren watching them do the nasty, and then continued doing the nasty while watching her watch them? Yes please thank you
It questions why he was so keen on getting close to dren. I suspected from a young age he was grooming her and now as a 27 year old woman I can confirm brody was grooming dren. She was easy to manipulate,was attached to him,she's a groomers wet dream
@@missvoorhees7964 except for..... y'know. Her face.
@@missvoorhees7964 its a possibility in this instance it could have been viewed like a pet not a person. i also wonder if there wasnt some kind of pheromone or psychic manipulation going on, that would better explain some of the characters actions and their flips in behavior regarding the creature. but i suppose it could a mad scientist versions of jeffery epstein and ghislaine maxwell, not that this movie needs to get any creepier.
@@missvoorhees7964 That is so wrong. He isn't a groomer. He didn't try to manipulate her. He wanted her dead until he got attached. Both him and the wife just got more fucked as time goes on.
I saw this creature somewhere on the internet and was like 'wow I want to watch this movie' and after watching I literally needed a therapy
This movie disturbed me so much I had to watch V for Vendetta just to calm me down.
😧
huh
I love that movie
I had to watch prank encounters and way of the house husband to do so...that is how messed up and subtle this movie is. based on clips no less.
I had to watch funny RUclips videos
And here I thought I could forget this movie forever. To quote Bart Simpson: “time to repress another memory.”
I felt so sad for Dren. She was a loving creature in a world she wasn't allowed to live in. This is the ultimate version of the childhood objection, 'I didn't ask to be born'. Of course, all the sexual stuff was outlandish and ruined what could have been a fascinating movie.
She was to me a modern female version of Frankenstein's monster
@@zacharymoss2994 Very true Zachary. Splice is a cautionary tail warning that man should not play God. That was the message of Frankenstein as well.

What are you, a chicken? Wait, don't answer that.
A lab-grown hybrid homunculus having sex with its creator before murdering him and straight up r*ping its mother is.. Actually quite bonkers, not going to lie. Creating a combustible lemon to burn someone's house down can be justified with enough context, but this.. This concept terrifies me.
So I guess this horror movie succeeded in scaring you? Although it's more of mental disturbance than a jump scar lol. Don't look up the half human and chimpanzee experiments btw

Because it’s a big fear most women have
@@LynetteTheMadScientist Speak for yourself not every woman wants kids
@@prixe12 Not every woman, but a lot of woman. Hell, even a lot of dudes want kids. It also definitely seems like the sort of thing that if you were unable to have kids that would only increase your desires to have them.
So, I'm a woman with no interest in having kids and never had an interest in having kids. Hell ... at the rate I'm going, I probably won't have an interest in having kids, ...and to be honest, I kind of get it. The idea that my choice to have a kid or not being taken away from me is a bit revolting. Maybe I'm just feeling some kind of sympathy. Like ... I'd find it horrible if I was suddenly pregnant, I can see why someone who would want to get pregnant would find it horrible if her uterus just walked away. To me, it isn't about life decisions as much as choice and being in control of one's own body.
That being said, it is still an overdone trope.
@@nevermore7285 so then why isn't it a thing in media that men can't have kids? there are men and women who can't have kids, there are men and women who want kids, but it's only a trope that women are infertile and distraught over it. bc it's a thing society considers as the value of women and bc women are usually blamed if a couple can't have kids.

Weirdly enough, I thought it's a nice horror about a creature who escaped the lab at first. The design of the child creature was adorable as heck, and the adult was disturbing... But then I found out what ACTUALLY happened in the movie and.. Yeaah...
I remember seeing the movie when it came out in theaters. I thought it was more silly than disturbing, mostly due to the acting and general plot (and also being an edgy "I'm too cool to be disturbed" teenager at the time).
However, my impression of what the director wanted was probably him trying to show how depraved humans can become in their quest for discovery. They threw away all moral boundaries but they also succumbed to blind desire, whether it be scientific or carnal lust. In a way, he achieved that. But, at the same time, his method came off as gratuitous rather than meaningful.
this but also I thought dren was adorable
@@GBfanatic15 so did I!!
Yes. Dren was cute. Until the switch up thing where she became he and he raped his Mom. That was just weird. Even animals don't get with their moms. Afaik. I could be wrong.
Yeah that's a great way to put it. It feels gratuitous and often times voyeuristic. I think the building blocks were there as mentioned, but then it just goes off the rails for me
I thought this movie was a fever dream- It actually exists???? And it’s just as weird as I remember it to be
Every 2000s movie is a fever dream.

Ngl the movie had me at first because I’m a sucker for sci fi hybrid shit, and I saw Dren’s design before actually watching, and she looked cool. But oh boy. Oh boy...
There’s a specific scene in the movie where the two scientists have sex, and Dren is watching, and the dude is watching HER. I knew what was coming. But knowing did not prepare me for it. And the ending was genuinely awful for me to watch. Especially considering how the way it was all framed, especially the sex scenes, it makes it feel like SOMEONE behind the scenes had a kink for this.

@@sharksmybeloved5030 It's called "Root Her" and I haven't been able to find a link (might have been removed) but I do know a few dramatic readings exist on RUclips!
Why did this make me cackle??
Never ever goijg to search that. Ever.
If I'm scarred from seeing Amanda's review, I feel sooooo bad for people that actually watched the movie lol, that's another level of trauma
Don't watch it bud I fond it on RUclips some how I'm still messed up because of it and I'm 14 so for years it will be in my head god help you if you watch it
Thank you 😔
I watched The Pianist a month before this movie, and I cannot come to a conclusion how Adrien Brody could include this movie on his resume and still have a chance for such a serious role. Good for him tho, I guess.
The Pianist was long before this movie was made, but yes I'm sure it kinda hurt his reputation after
Have you seen him in anything recently 👀 just saying 🤷🏾♀️
@@OppositeofHATE7 Right? His career was definitely hurt, in Hollywood once actors do more than three terrible movies they get benched. Sure, they'll get roles in and there but their comeback has to be very strong. It won't be the same for him.
I think Adrien Brody just thought well i win an Oscar and create new heights (him winning at 29 y/o making him the youngest) and he is just like not gonna try as hard anymore which is unfortunate but i still think he is a good actor just because of that performance, also the only good movies he's in after the oscar is the WAnderson's collabo and that one Woody Allen movie
@@ShanyShannon Unless they didn't tell him the full plot of the movie beforehand, I don't know how he didn't see it coming.
You know how some movies just STICK with you over the years?? This is one of those movies. It wasn't high budget, I kinda hated it (in a good way if that makes sense?) And yet I still think of it randomly every couple of months. I only watched it once, when it came out, but I remembered most of it. Strange.
