Greetings Beast Folk. Welcome to Dr. Moreau's island. Don't drink the water, kill the rabbits, or even pretend to memorize your lines. Such was the case with this film's two powerhouse leads: Marlon Brando and Val Kilmer. You can literally see their egos taking over and ruining everyone's time. Forbidden Planet anyone? Not to mention the on-set witchcraft, the world’s smallest man (inspiring Austin Powers’ Mini-Me!), and ice bucket hats. Truly, this is a film everyone should see to believe. So dear Sayers of the Law: does this adaptation of an H.G. Wells classic stand the test of time? Or is it best left in the House of Pain?

Plus, enjoy Peter Lorre's review of a Bela Lugosi haunted house romp called Spooks Run Wild. We're all running wild with this one. Thanks to Frank for joining and thank YOU for listening!
