Don Druker · Chicago Reader 100.00/100.00

One of the most deservedly famous and chilling horror films of all time.

高詩遠 4.00/5.00

黑白片的质感好漂亮,墓地挖坟时背后的十字架,在教室偷大脑时墙上的光影,隐隐约约能看到欧洲超现实主义的影响。Maria形象再次出现,企图救赎被邪恶污染内心之人,怪人形象因此拥有了弧光,值得被人同情。科学所制造出来的不合时宜的生物需要被毁灭,老人抱着死去的女儿走过欢乐的街令人心碎,怪人与世人的对抗开始有了可以被反复拉扯的余地。双方都是在科学之下对压迫进行反抗,无关谁都谁错,有的只是永恒的焦虑。

Kim Newman · Empire 100.00/100.00

Beautiful photography, a heartbreaking story, and iconic moments from beginning to end. Absolutely unmissable.
