The Island of Dr Moreau
This is the third movie to bring parts of early 20th-century writer H.G. Wells’ book The Island of Dr. Moreau to the screen. Earlier versions (1933, 1977) adhered more closely to the story than this one does. Douglas (David Thewlis) is a U.N. peace negotiator who is stranded in the middle of the Pacific Ocean by an airplane crash. He is picked out of the water by Montgomery (Val Kilmer), Dr. Moreau’s assistant, and taken to a tropical island.
