颐和园(未删减版)

　　1940年9月，德、意、日三国成立同盟。山本五十六被任命为日本联合舰队总司令，并不得不“违背自己的意愿”，接受命令对美、英、荷等国开战。1941后12月8日零时，山本五十六亲自下达了“1280”密码命令，并亲自率领部队偷袭美国珍珠港，从而对美军太平洋舰队造成重创，大胜而归。随后山本五十六建议与美国讲和，但意见未被采纳。在指挥中途岛战役时，由于战略上的重大失误，日本海军遭受惨重损失。形势陡然逆转，美军攻势如虹，日军兵败如山倒。瓜达康纳岛上有三万多名日本陆军，他们遭到了美军飞机的昼夜轰炸，陷于绝境。山本五十六派出舰队炮击美军基地，协助尚存的陆军安全撤退。1943年4月18日，山本五十六为了鼓动前线部队的士气，乘坐一架轰炸机到前线视察。没想到日军的密码被美军窃取，美军派出空军机队将山本五十六的座机击落，一代军人山本五十六就此碎尸于太平洋上空。

　　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.

　　The pic is set in the aftermath of an apocalyptic event that forces people into extreme isolation. A father (Moyer) and son (Van Acker), who have been living off grid for 20 years, encounter an outsider (Silverstone) who threatens to destroy the utopia they’ve built.
