Splice (2009)

Two geneticists splice some human and animal DNA together to help further the cause of medicine and their own egos. When the moral shit threatens to hit the fan they take matters into their own hands.
The film was shot in 42 days on a less than perfect budget but still looks fantastic. The story is good for the first hour. There are some nice parallels that I can’t mention because of spoiler, but it’s a shame that the last 20 minutes don't keep that momentum. It ceases to be social commentary and turns to shock crap. The middle is the strongest part and makes it worth watching at least once.
