Comment
Two young idealistic scientists (Sarah Polley and Adrien Brody) are experimenting with genetic engineering by mixing DNA from different species, but have their project stopped when they suggest using human DNA. However they go ahead and create a creature that includes human DNA. The premise starts off well, but gets lost half way through as the two main characters fail to grasp the implications and consequences of what they are doing as the plot becomes increasingly unbelievable. The best performance in the film is from Delphine Chaneac as the creature even though she has no dialogue.
