- The title sequence is kinetic and dazzling; the score by Gary Chang is varied and all-around phenomenal; the plot is intriguing; the humanimal make-up and actors are quite good with Daniel Rigney's 'Hyena-Swine' standing out (Rigney would be dead a mere year after the film's release); there's some creative pizazz, like Marlon Brando's 35-minute stint where he's as captivating as always, albeit a fat bastage; the inclusion of Dr. Moreau's "Mini-Me" is hilarious in hindsight of the Austin Powers...

It made me think that the film would be really really dark and disturbing. In seeing it, I thought it was quite boring, and never thought much about it after. Figured since it had Fairuza Balk, Mark Dacascos, Ron Perlman, and Val Kilmer that it'd be this great entertaining movie.
Sep 17, 2017 · You don’t watch The Island of Dr. Moreau for any reason other than to laugh at its retardedness.
