In "Splice," genetic engineers Clive (Brody) and Elsa (Polley) specialize in splicing DNA from different animals to create incredible new hybrids. Now, in an attempt to revolutionize science and medicine, they're looking for a bigger challenge and want to use human DNA in a hybrid. But when the pharmaceutical company that funded their research pulls out from the project, Clive and Elsa secretly take the experiment underground. The result is Dren (Chaneac), a strangely beautiful creature of uncommon intelligence who exceeds their wildest dreams. But as she grows and learns at an accelerated rate, her existence threatens to become their worst nightmare. (Gary Reber)
