By all accounts, Clive and Elsa are two of the most brilliant people on the planet, yet they continually make the worst decisions in the history of science. This is where the movie starts to go downhill. They are successful, but during their success, they neglect their other duties, leading to a rather unfortunate and gory event in front of the media and investors where the original creatures attack each other. Apparently gene splicing is tough on the pocket book, and they need to start turning some profit, so they want our two braniacs to stop splicing and start researching just how to synthesize this protein.Ĭlive and Elsa decide to go ahead with splicing, integrating human DNA into the mix, without permission. The company they work for, NERD (Nucleic Exchange Research and Development), has other plans. They are excited about their success and are ready to take the next step, splicing with human DNA. By all accounts, they are highly successful, creating a slug looking creature and its mate, both designed to supply a certain protein used for fighting several diseases. We are introduced to biochemists Clive and Elsa, a couple working in a gene splicing lab creating hybrid animals for medical research purposes. The first act of the movie lived up to my expectations, setting the table nicely. Splice gives us an amazing concept with a more than capable cast, and Director Vincenzo Natali brought us the subtly brilliant Cube, so I had reason to be excited about this movie. This was one of those movies that I really, really wanted to like. Starring: Adrien Brody, Sarah Polley, Delphine Chaneac, Brandon McGibbon, David Hewlett, Simona Maicanescu
