　　年轻的法克斯坦博士神推鬼撞下来到祖父的城堡，无意中发现了一本祖父的记事簿，在驼背人伊哥与性感野性的伊加帮助下，加上偷回来的脑，根据祖父的科学实验资料，成功制造了一具怪物–科学怪人。可惜，偷回来的脑出了岔子，导致科学怪人极渴望被爱，它离家出走，在郊外遇上小女孩与一名瞎子……　　影史上数一数二爆笑到极点的电影！请务必先看过1931年的《科学怪人》及1935年的《科学怪人的新娘》电影版本再来看本片，因为本片所有镜头、对白、桥段、造型等，皆和旧版作了对比，却大大颠覆成搞笑版本！

Harry Moseby (Gene Hackman), a worn-out private detective, is hired to look for a 16-year-old girl who has run away from the luxury home of her mother, formerly a small-time actress in Los Angeles. The more the weary cynic tries to get under the surface of the seemingly simple case, the harder it is for him to find his bearings among the lies and deceptions that surround him. Eight years after the key New Hollywood film Bonnie and Clyde, Arthur Penn and Gene Hackman reunited to collaborate on what was to become one of the most undervalued films of the decade. Like Polanski in Chinatown or Altman in The Long Goodbye, in his revisionist film noir, Penn also allows the 1940s classic genre to pervade the complex reality of the 1970s. The feelings of bitterness and emptiness in the modern Chandleresque protagonist originate not only in the “public” sphere of the strange, increasingly convoluted case, but in his private life as well (boyhood trauma, a broken marriage). As Moseby remarks of a sporting event, “nobody’s winning … one side is just losing slower than the other.”
