"It's accelerating, Clive," she whispered. "The cranial development is off the charts. It’s not just growing; it’s thinking ."

They found them like that: Carlos asleep at his terminal, a soft weight on his thigh and a slight staccato breath that did not belong to any human. Noemi, partly out on the bench and partly still within the tank, wrapped a filamentous limb—stiffened at some points, feathery at others—around his fingers. It had inserted a tiny patch of tissue at the tip of the filament that pulsed with bioluminescent warmth—something it had learned to produce in response to the calcium in his sweat. The image was terrible in its tenderness. --Splice-2009----

: Dren evolves rapidly, developing wings and a stinger, while showing signs of human-like intelligence. "It's accelerating, Clive," she whispered

Splice is a 2009 science-fiction horror film that tells the story of two brilliant but reckless genetic engineers, Clive and Elsa. They defy their corporate employers' orders by secretly introducing human DNA into their experiment, creating a new and rapidly evolving hybrid organism named "Dren" ("Nerd" spelled backward). The film was written and directed by Vincenzo Natali (creator of the cult classic Cube ) and produced by major talents like Guillermo del Toro and Joel Silver. It premiered in Germany in October 2009 and had its wide theatrical release in the US on June 4, 2010. Noemi, partly out on the bench and partly

The narrative revolves around rock-star scientists Clive Nicoli (Adrien Brody) and Elsa Kast (Sarah Polley). They successfully create livestock hybrids named "Fred" and "Ginger" for a pharmaceutical corporation called N.E.R.D. (Nucleic Exchange Research Development). Eager to revolutionize medicine, they secretly introduce human DNA into their genetic cocktails against corporate orders.

Noemi, however, did not escape into the world like a science fiction predator. It did not immediately infect half the city nor plot. It continued as it always had: sampling, learning, seeking contact. In the days after the breach, small crumpled bits of tissue were found in ducting, in ceiling tiles, in the crawlspaces behind cupboards—the organism following the scents of warmth and human activity like a child following a parent's voice through a fairground. It made its way through the building's underbelly and, once or twice, briefly touched a human hand under the cover of night. Those who experienced the contact described it afterward as a tender pressure, exactly like a memory of being held.
