The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
片子恶心的简直太一骑绝尘了，深度怀疑该片是在导演high翻的状态下构思出来的，推荐推荐！
2.片尾的那个矮子怪人通过望远镜看到的是蘑菇云，也许这象征了最能够异化人类的也许就是人类自身的行为。
献祭品的护士，失控的医生等等
72/100 #Locarno2021# 人如蝼蚁、蛆虫，我们能看到阶级表达和大与小的对比，也能辨认出核战隐喻，新生婴儿穿行于后末日废土之中。在片中望远镜里看到的是历史还是未来？时间往哪个方向行走？或许还看到林奇、库布里克、芒蒂格...？在最后二十分钟色彩似乎才稍微有趣了起来。确切能看到的是工作量，因此常常在展示这些工作量，对空间的展示重于对观众真正地引导，似乎其中也并不真的有什么人物。当然，如果是B级恐怖片的逻辑，也许也不算大问题，问题是新鲜感还是不足够。
7.5分，满屏的怪诞与奇思，看的人通体舒畅，神清气爽。
剧情已经不重要了，视觉慎宴，神仙做的定格动画
如果只是浅显得理解它是在讽刺战争、制度、医疗和人性，那就太狭隘了，这明明是众神在孕育万物时对世界乃至宇宙的的唯美礼赞。
非常过瘾，极度残酷。资本主义发展到极致就是地狱的样子。最后给自己灭掉，又回到自然状态。瘟疫乌鸦代表的上帝其实就是自然，宇宙，神。神才不在乎人类怎么想，一切不过是周而复始。
这种几乎没有对白，并且意识流的电影，其实80分钟真的过长，再瑰丽也太长了
源自作者的疯狂幻想并用定格动画道具逼真的展现出来 在脑洞和手艺上都值得称赞 与其说是一部电影不如说是一种内心癫狂黑暗的映射 虽然没什么软用就是了 过于恶心-1星
先别管什么隐喻不隐喻的，视觉感受真是非同凡响。饭前服用疗效好！
完全放弃剧情编排，只有符号化的叙事碎片疯狂堆积，比场景本身更肮脏残忍的深层意向，从艺术的角度来说足以载入影史。
全程无对白 剧情方面见仁见智 但这种类似定格动画的方式还是挺有感觉的
虽然看不懂，但隐隐约约觉得似乎是人类文明的诞生和毁灭。文明起源进化造孽等等元素搞来搞去。较cult，较无聊。
4.5 屈服于美术！Diesel punk的极致！各种手法的拼贴让人想起Dave Mckean的插画 定格动画这个载体本身已经很能代表质量了 即使只是堆叠起来的片段 叙事什么的都不重要了——
反战、反乌托邦、反托拉斯、渎神……等等？元素过多，没看懂。
地上是弱肉强食，地下是奴役与镇压，再往深处去，金银财宝也无用了，是想要你的本命啊， 顺便再来一套金刚钻搜魂术，好家伙，祥林嫂的阿毛被狼叼去啦，铲屎的在互殴啦，我竟是宇宙的起源啦，时间会顺着走，也能逆着走，闹钟响了，我醒了
太狂了 导演本人是地球人？这片子真够噩梦变态的
太邪乎了，被各种恶心恶心着。当以为会出现赛博朋克时，呈现在眼前的却是巨大事物恐惧症。而且这画风……也是醉了。要是看完片子就一个感觉：人真不是个东西。
纳粹军团抢宝藏，下一站，地狱。很难不去想象作者创作的时候磕药了吗，坚持了三十年的定格动画，给我们带来了一副绚丽多彩，诡异荒诞，阴森恐怖，迷幻离奇的观影体验。疯神，封神!
