Title: What is the Law?
Review: This atmospheric old thriller is amazing. With the limited techniques of the 30's it manages to be more moody, chilling and effective than it's modern remakes (both of them, the one with Burt Lancaster and the other with Brando).The lack of modernity actually helps the movie. Black & white photography with it's deep black shadows, torch lit jungles, etc. makes for a much more sustained sinister tension. The makeup effects are fine, and again so much more effective shot in the half light of black & white.Laughton is simply wonderful as this unrestrained loony Dr. Moreau, performing his hideous torturous experiments on his animal/human subjects. That his just desserts are served up to him in his own "House of Pain" is perfect. Lugosi is fine in a bit part.But, this is Laughton's show all the way, and his final scene....broken glass, scalpels, and crescendo of terrified cries of agony...well, it'll put shivers down your spine. Unforgettable.
