Sure, the ethics of swizzling together human genes with various lab potions is queasy, and the initial result of their rogue project is disconcertingly pitched somewhere between a human baby and a monster thing with a stinger in its tail. And yes, the beastie is growing fast. Like, really, really fast. But this is science, right? Surely the breakthrough in human evolution that would come with this experiment justifies a little corner cutting? Splice is going to answer these questions in a reliably familiar way, and in its early going it finds some fun in working hip variations on the mad-scientist genre--plus, in Brody and Polley, the film already distinguishes itself by reaching up to the top shelf for actors. It would be nice to report that director Vincenzo Natali (whose Cube was a very fun Twilight Zone -flavored teaser) is able to stitch these elements into something that keeps its momentum going; alas, despite the arrival of Delphine Chaneac as the mature (and unsettlingly sexy) mutant creature, the movie begins stepping into the sillier possibilities of its scenario. Splice would like to mess you around with some aggressively transgressive material toward the end, but this just leads us away from the most fruitful moral questions surrounding the creation of the semi-human being in the first place. That's where the horror lies. --Robert Horton Splice (DVD) Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley star as two superstar genetic engineers who specialize in combining DNA from different animals to create incredible new hybrids. Now they want to use human DNA to revolutionize science and medicine in an amazing human-animal Splice. But when the pharmaceutical company funding their research forbids it, Clive (Brody) and Elsa (Polley) conduct their own experiments. The result is Dren, an amazing, strangely beautiful creature who exhibits uncommon intelligence and an array of unexpected physical developments. Dren exceeds their wildest dreams as she grows and learns at an accelerated rate ... and threatens to become their worst nightmare. Review: Confused by Mixed Reviews? READ THIS! NO SPOILERS!!! - I offer up this explanation to those who have not yet seen SPLICE and are confused by mixed reviews. There are no spoilers, so confidently read on: SPLICE has something that most horror/sci-fi movies lack: wit. In order to fully appreciate this movie you have to understand wit. It's not a stupid movie, it's a movie that is smarter than the average movie goer. Yes, the characters make nearly every wrong decision possible, and many of the scenes are humorous, but INTENTIONALLY so! The story is tongue-and-cheek and the actors, screenwriters, and director are in on it, but the audience, for whatever reason, has largely misinterpreted this movie as a serious drama that is played terribly wrong and is unintentionally funny. There are dramatic elements and serious parts, but the bizarre scenarios, in which the dramatic dialogue occurs, create surreal and humorous situations. Again, it's purposefully and intelligently humorous, i.e. witty. SPLICE is a bizarre movie. It takes a twisted sense of humor to truly appreciate it. Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley deliver deadpan performances, providing very analytical and matter-of-fact responses to outlandish and grotesque scenarios. They make every wrong decision possible, because -frankly- if they were to follow the ethical code of conduct for genetic engineers this movie would be 10 minutes long. It's not a realistic portrayal, but a cautionary fantasy. The only way this story can be told is humorously, and -despite what the majority says on internet chat rooms- it works! I apologize if I sound defensive or condescending, but SPLICE is one of my favorite movies and it's been greatly misinterpreted, degraded, and disregarded. I think its mainstream release is partially to blame and it would have done better in limited run with word of mouth (i.e. Human Centipede). It's just not for everyone, and I am confident that this movie will reach cult status among a weird demographic. I joined the official SPLICE Facebook page and most of the comments have been about how terrible it is! WHAT??? It's supposed to be a fan club! I don't understand... Review: ITS NOT NICE TO FOOL MOTHER NATURE - SPLICE is a cunning, creepy and clever Sci-Fi thrill ride. Did I mention "sexy"? No matter. If you want a nice case of the Heebie Geebies, SPLICE will not disappoint. The underlining theme is nothing new. This is Frankenstein told over --but you can forget about gothic villages and peasants with torches. SPLICE's creature finds life in a state-of-the-art Mega Corporate genetics lab. This hopelessly doomed experiment-gone-wrong is the creation of 2 curious and brilliant gene splice jockeys who can't fight the urge to throw a little bit of their own human DNA into the old chromasonal cauldron. Every phase of the creatures development is stunning and even shockingly cool film making. What ya gonna do when your very own monster grows up to be the amphibious, winged, deadly and scrumptious babe of your dreams? Euthanize her? Not the choice of our red-blooded American male scientist--or his young wife intent on mothering a child of her own creation. Things get sticky, hot and incredibly creepy. In the end, nothing good can come of messing around with the laws of creation. Especially in the last 15 minutes of this horror thriller. This is slick and scary sci-fi story weaving. Its wonderfully first-rate musical score is an unexpected delight. But I would hate to give anything away. Go ahead and buy this one. SPLICE is one Blu-Ray that is worth multiple viewing and worthy of a place in your sci-fi horror library. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Adrien Brody, Antoinette Terry Bryant, Christophe Riandee, Delphine Chanéac, Don Murphy, Doug Taylor, Guillermo del Toro, Joel Silver, Sarah Polley, Sidonie Dumas, Steven Hoban, Susan Montford, Vincenzo Natali, Yves Chevalier Contributor Adrien Brody, Antoinette Terry Bryant, Christophe Riandee, Delphine Chanéac, Don Murphy, Doug Taylor, Guillermo del Toro, Joel Silver, Sarah Polley, Sidonie Dumas, Steven Hoban, Susan Montford, Vincenzo Natali, Yves Chevalier See more | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 3,843 Reviews | | Format | NTSC | | Genre | Horror, Mystery & Suspense, Science Fiction & Fantasy | | Initial release date | 2010-10-05 | | Language | English | ## Product Details - **Format:** NTSC - **Genre:** Horror, Mystery & Suspense, Science Fiction & Fantasy - **Initial release date:** 2010-10-05 - **Language:** English ## Images ![Splice (DVD) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91XcL8e31JL.jpg) ![Splice (DVD) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91A4FcxELzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Confused by Mixed Reviews?

Throughout the film scientific ethics get cast aside as our married protagonists wrestle with their yearnings for a child - even one spliced together from Polley's and various and sundry bird and amphibian DNA - and their attempts to realize their joint professional ambition to solve human disease through exotic genetic research. At least until the end, the movie doesn't succumb to the usual genre cliches of people being picked off by the monster, chase scenes, etc. Instead, the film invites us to fall in love with the creature which we follow from infancy to toddlerhood (skittererhood?), to confused and moody teenager. When Brody introduces Dren to dancing and shows her a few ballroom moves, she's as entranced as any adolescent girl basking in the light of her father's attentions. Of course sprinkled throughout the film are the foreboding little hints of future mayhem: Dren's sinuous tail with its mercurial hypodermic claw, her manic willful eyebrows, ready to challenge all authority... and of course her wild animal strength and lightening speed. But in the end we know that - like many a monster before her - she's not meant for this world, and her end will be both sad and banal. With, however a nice plot twist in the final scene. I recommend this surprisingly low-key, unpretentious but well-crafted film. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/13874012-splice-dvd](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/13874012-splice-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
