#335 - H.G. Wells' The Island of Dr. Moreau - WatchThis W/RickRamos

<p><span style="font-size: 24pt;">Doomed Journey of Lost Souls: H.G. Wells'      <strong><em>The Island of Dr. Moreau</em></strong></span></p> <p>On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Ibrahim & I sit down to discuss a Sci-Fi Classic, H.G. Wells' The Island of Dr. Moreau. With three English language productions, Wells' story has proven problematic for numerous filmmakers. This week we take a look at Erle C. Kenton's <strong><em>Island of Lost Souls</em></strong> (1932), featuring Charles Laughton & Bela Lugosi and the Richard Stanley/John Frankenheimer disaster, <strong><em>The Island of Dr. Moreau</em></strong>. With a bizarre, strange, and surprisingly enjoyable performance by Marlon Brando, a lackluster and disengaged Val Kilmer, and a thoroughly disgusted (and possibly suicidal) David Thewlis, this mess of a movie is truly bizarre requiring it's own documentary <strong><em>Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau</em></strong> (2014). Take a listen. We continue to have fun doing this. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to <a href= "mailto:gondoramos@yahoo.com">gondoramos@yahoo.com</a>. Many Thanks!</p>
