Splice

Two scientists create a new species with human DNA. That's never a good idea. Made for sci-fi fans, but horror fans may be disappointed because of the misleading marketing that makes it look like a creature feature throughout.

Rated R for disturbing elements including strong sexuality, nudity, sci-fi
violence and language.

The trailers for the
upcoming sci-fi horror epic would have you think “Splice” is nothing more than
a monster movie with a merciless creature hunts down and kills its creators.
While the third act may indeed be a generic creature feature, the first two acts
are where “Splice” really shines with originality.
