My movie year 2018 (680 movies items)

"2.10. (Kovo) Hieman häiriintynyt pikkutuntien katselukokemus. Eläinihmiset laittavat ranttaliksi. Erityisesti näiden kokoukset ovat painostavia ja Moreaun kommentti "he ovat tänä yönä levottomia" enteilee enemmän pahaa kuin tusina hajoavia autoja ja "tulen takaisin" -repliikkejä konsanaan."

Movie Reviews (51-100) (50 movies items)

" Unique and violent (for it's time) version of H.G. Wells' "Island of Dr. Moreau" where crazed Charles Laughton believe himself to be God and cross men with animals. Impressive cinematography, a very sexy Leopard Woman and great makeup highlights this pre-code production. Bela Lugosi do a nice supporting part as one of the genetic manipulated creatures. A little stronger characterization would have made this movie a huge epic. Now, it is a minor classic."
