Aro Recommended Island of Lost Souls

 

USA 1933, 68 minutes, B/W
Dir. Erle C. Kenton
Rating: [R16]
Genres: Horror, Classics / Science Slip

 

Aroview: First screen version of H.G. Wells' fascinating novel features the delightfully loony Charles Laughton as Dr. Moreau, the exiled scientist obsessed with evolving animals into human mutants at his island laboratory. Primal themes of sexuality, cruelty, exploitation and megalomania made this strongly prurient viewing for audiences of the day. Remade as THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU.
