S16 Ep858: The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996)

“The idea that you’re gonna put Kilmer and Brando in the same movie and you expect this to go well...” - Steve This week on WHM, Remake-ril boards a plane to fly to a mysterious destination in the South Pacific as the guys chat about one of the most notorious Hollywood disasters of the 1990s, John Frankenheimer’s The Island of Dr. Moreau ! Who on Earth thought it was a good idea to get Brando involved in this? Does our society really want monkey butlers? What was Kilmer smoking while filming this—no seriously, any strain info? How was this movie only PG-13 with all these horrific mon-stars? Why was mainstream pop culture kinda cool with a little light beastiality in the 1990s? And credit where credit’s due, Stan Winston hit it out of the park with the monster make-up. PLUS: The return of the VHS Trailer Game! The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) stars David Thewlis, Val Kilmer, Fairuza Balk, Daniel Rigney, Temuera Morrison, Nelson de la Rosa, Mark Dacascos, Ron Perlman, Marco Hofschneider, and Marlon Brando as Dr. Moreau; directed by John Frankenheimer.
