The Island Of Dr Moreau (1996): The Most Beautifully Insane Film You've Never Seen

Ben and Rob wash up on ‘The Island Of Dr Moreau’, the 1996 commercial and critical flop starring Marlon Brando, Val Kilmer, David Thewlis, and Fairuza Balk. This film is an absolute fever dream involving cloning, body horror and nonsense plotting; only overshadowed by the drama happening behind the scenes. Marlon Brando improvised what lines he wasn’t fed via earpiece, Val Kilmer was a walking menace and the lead role was recast three times.

So how does such a famous book get adapted into one of the messiest films of all time? How did the original director employ literal wizards to help him secure the film? Why did a crew member’s hand melt? And why is this film so entertaining to watch even today?
