The story concerns experiments in genetic engineering being done by a young scientific couple, who attempt to introduce human DNA into their work of splicing animal genes. Nucleic Exchange Research and Development. Their work previously yielded Fred, a dog-sized vermiform creature intended as a mate for their female specimen, Ginger. After successfully mating them, Clive and Elsa plan to create a human-animal hybrid that could revolutionize science. Their employers Joan Chorot of N. Instead, they are to find and extract proteins used for commercial drug production from Fred and Ginger. Clive and Elsa, however, disobey their superiors and pursue their own agenda in secret, developing a viable prepubescentfemale creature.

I applaud him for taking the risk. Fresh from their success in creating a new hybrid organism from the splicing of the DNA of various animals, biochemists Clive Nicoli Adrien Brody and Elsa Kast Sarah Polley are eager to continue their groundbreaking experiments. She thinks they have more pressing concerns — namely, creating a new hybrid by introducing human DNA into the mix — financial, ethical and legal prohibitions notwithstanding. Clive is reluctant, but Elsa refuses to be stopped. Her determination suggests hidden disturbances are driving her that even she may be unconscious of.

In this film, maybe because of recent scientific and technological advances, the premise is not so far fetched anymore, as two young, revolutionary scientists embark on a journey they might not be ready to tackle. It's only her seductive beauty that lowers our defenses, and eventually we discover what is the source of her grip on our protagonist, and the implications are extremely controversial and unethical. I could have given it an 8 or a 9 but for the casting. US and UK versions min. It's a thinking man's B picture, which plays with the idea of morality on both a scientific and personal level.

In my opinion, the director was onto something in the beginning but then took the story into an unnecessary direction that might've still worked if there had been some real build up to those points which led to the conclusion. They have just created the hybrid Ginger and Fred and now they intend to join together human DNA to alter the genetic structure of their experiment. It helps that actors of the caliber of Brody and Pauley play their parts adroitly. Box office Edit. It is a film with very few characters, but every moment not spent on that central dynamic feels like time wasted.
