The Island of Dr. Moreau

Directed by John Frankenheimer

1996 • R • English • 96 min.

This famously mediocre adaptation of H.G. Wells’ famous novel is the result of a famously troubled production (they made a whole documentary about it). But still, it’s worth watching for the creature makeup effects work and a what-the-heck-is-he-doing performance from Marlon Brando.
