About this product

Product Information

Marlon Brando stars as the scientist in the third adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic. The archetypal mad scientist, the good doctor has been conducting a number of experiments in his remote island kingdom, producing a race of genetic mutants both man and beast in his quest to produce a superior creature. The mutants treat Moreau as a virtual god, carrying out his orders with blind obedience. To deal with the few rebels, the scientist has embedded electrodes under their skin through which he can induce a degree of pain sufficient for his purpose. A plane crash-lands on the island, and the only survivor, U.N. negotiator Edward Douglas (David Thewlis), is taken to Moreau's compound by the doctor's demented assistant, Montgomery (Val Kilmer), where he's soon imprisoned. Shocked by Moreau's experiments, Douglas desperately seeks escape but is badly outnumbered by the army of mutants. At length, the creatures discover how to remove the controlling devices from their bodies and attempt a rebellion, but it soon becomes clear that their collective intelligence was not increased by their physical transformation. This film became an instant camp classic, the result of a troubled production on which John Frankenheimer replaced the original director after only a day of shooting. The fine camerawork of veteran William Fraker stands out above all else.

    I can talk about the fast shipping or how it was exactly as described, heck i can even talk about the great value, but most of all i want to talk about the packaging. I've bought quite a bit of game consoles and this was above all amazingly packaged. I cannot stress how impressed and happy to see this console sold as parts being packaged as well as this was. If their shipping something labeled as parts this magnificently, thats the signs of a great seller 100% couldnt recommend more!

    Thank you for shipping my purchase. It is brand new as promised. I just wish you would have packaged it in a protective box, rather than stuffing it into a thin plastic envelope. It arrived scrunched up and mis-shapen. But thank you for providing a new inventory product as described and thank you for shipping it very quickly. I appreciate that very much. Wishing you all the very best in your eBay endeavors.

    Cannot go wrong with H.G. Welles' titles.

    The original behind-the-scenes featurette is novel and makes the dvd even more interesting.

    A Waste of a Good Story on a Poor film.

    Terrible rendition of a great story. It only resembles the book in the merest of details. Marlon Brando was completely horrendous as was Brad Pitt. The hero, if you could call him that had a limited range of acting mannerisms. The movie was terrible and I regret having purchased it. A complete waste of money and time. Far superior were the B&W Charles Laughton version and the Burt Lancaster version. Both much truer to the book and more artistically done.

  • Worth watching. Interesting.

    I saw this movie years back and wanted to see it again. I liked it. It' is worth the buy. However it is an older movie so don't expect computer perfection on the animals. Still great story. and real looking hybreds.

  • Great Movie

    A movie I remember from a time ago. I just don’t care much for Val Kilmer. Great movie to remake.
