THE ISLAND OF DR MOREAU (1977)

​

Director: Don Sharp.  Cast: Burt Lancaster, Michael York, Barbara Carrera

Poor H.G. Wells takes another hiding from the moviemakers at AIP. Michael York is washed up on the shores of the titular landmass where Burt Lancaster (as Dr Moreau) is shooting up animals and turning them into people. He then shoots up Michael York and turns him into an animal.

This hilarious remake of Island of Lost Souls features a very grumpy Lancaster, Michael York shouting a lot and flashing his nipples and a bunch of guys in rubber animal masks running around the jungle and wrestling cows and tigers.
