Title: The Doctor Is In The House (of Pain)!
Review: You call yourself a scientist? THIS guy is a scientist! Doc Moreau does cutting-edge (heh) research the hard way. Laughton's performance is flawless. And Bela Lugosi, while not given much to do, does it well as the Sayer of the Law. The murkiness of the film is a feature, not a bug: you're heading into the Heart of Darkness. And as a statement, the film is more timely than ever. There are things going on nowadays --off the beaten path, mostly, like his mad little island-- that put Moreau's work in the shade. . .
