UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
拍的真的还不错诶！！事实证明人比鬼可怕多了
虽然受限不能有鬼，但是叙事逻辑还是可以的，多视角讲故事还是有用过心的。想看狐狸大仙！希望狐狸最后还是出来一下的。3.5分可以有。
既然取这个名字就整点怪谈异志啊，谁想看人心啊！！
没那么好但也不算太差。跟导演上一部风格接近，叙事结构也类似，本以为结尾有点黑楼孤魂的味道，但彩蛋又给了一个新的角度。
斗米恩升米仇，有的王八蛋连土匪都不如
真相在最后。中国大陆网大拍成这样就可以了。
说话太多 讲得太白 太scifi了 不够神秘主义
和《欲望号快车》一脉相承，理解不来的扭曲的性和暴力，一样觉得肉疼和不安。
最近想看中式恐怖，这部还不错。可惜就是已经看了剧透了，所以冲击少了很多。完全不恐怖。欠缺的点是，人物性格太扁平，也可能是因为不符合我的认知，不理解为什么救济了三年还能如此忘恩负义。穷山恶水出刁民吗？
昨天看睡着了，今天把剩下的看完，理解可能有偏差。现如今每个人都是行为艺术家，缝上嘴巴只用全身耳朵来表达的行为艺术表演者，可能形式大于内容。最极致的表达又是反求诸己，用身体去献祭意义。看那些切割画面，我竟然可以目不转睛，得益于拍摄视角的客观呈现，不血腥不迎合。
故事讲得很完整，特效也可以，演员演技有待提高，在国内惊悚悬疑众片中可以说是中上的存在了。
因为优酷简介里有美艳狐妻几个字，以为又是俗艳故事会，没想到是这片子蹭人家俗艳故事会热度。故事整体不错，背单词的时候一心二用看的，所以对演技没啥印象也不好评价，听台词男主挺板的，部分特效整的中不中西不西的跟毒液似的，梦回好莱坞了属于是
最后加了个长镜头，推向深渊。真着假假，假假真真。讲的有多假，故事就有多真。画面有多真，故事就有多假。
柯南伯格的正常发挥，有抗体之后也不会再觉得它有多么的惊世骇俗，而且它的晦涩也让人看得很累。
维果最后一幕的面庞很接近贝尔尼尼的《圣特雷莎的沉迷》，古老的问题，内在性还是超越性?迷醉还是狂喜?神是一种new sex或新手术?看这部等于把《感官游戏》《欲望号快车》《大都会》等糅杂起来再看一遍，其主题又有着很强的独立性和延展度，一如既往的意犹未尽，大概因为造型本身就是肉体快感，肉体快感以一种plastic（塑形）的方式被领受，比起出格更讲究收敛，不管怎么说都比钛之流高明很多。维果和塞杜的组合完成度是水平线之上的。每次看柯南伯格都会觉得自己对人类的理解出现了一点偏差，不看的时候又会马上忘掉这回事。
到最后逻辑都通了。最后的那一幕美好的情景我理解为乌托邦吧。可惜没看到美丽的狐妖，有点伤
好，难得有这么好的片，剧情紧凑，扣人心弦，前面恐怖后面哲思，没有说会让人想跳过快进，剧情上让你有一种意料之外情理之中的感觉
父系人最大的问题就是神圣化性交，供精者人生无其它使命除了最不值一提的快感，生命伟大在母亲的孕育而不是供精者的一哆嗦，所以他们掌权的世界会出现这种亵渎生命的“艺术”，学外科的看这个电影时只觉得可笑并强烈希望这些人去替那些想健康活着的病人去死。
柯南伯格有怨气呀！绝望无极限，欲望也是。它可以驱使人创造新的技法——“穿过皮囊爱死你”，也可以成为挑战社会秩序的基石，怎么畸变怎么来。文艺的心还能在类型片框架下完整叙述，还不错。
lazy exposition多到完全不像柯能堡，对自己以往元素的再运用也没有edgelord的气魄了。恐怕这部才是真的接近video essay。(以及对 body art的想象似乎也并没有超越80年代的stelarc
