ABOUT THE FILM: Director Erle C. Kenton adapted H.G. Wells’ The Island of Dr. Moreau into one of the classic Pre-Code horror shockers. Originally released by Paramount to compete with Universal’s monster menagerie, ironically Universal now owns the rights. Seaman Richard Arlen is marooned on vivisectionist Charles Laughton’s private isle, where he has developed a species of subhumans from various wild animals in his “House of Pain.” An old-school chiller that remains scary to this day. FORMAT: 35mm DISTRIBUTOR: Universal
