Review link: Island Of Lost Souls
Everyone once in a while—actually, fairly often—this job of mine allows me to write about a film that I love. The new Criterion DVD/Blu-ray of Island Of Lost Souls proviced one of those occasions. A truly horrifying adaptation of H.G. Wells’ The Island Of Dr. Moreau, I first saw it thanks to the Bob Squillace, a college professor of mine who knew a rich text and a creepy movie when he saw one. Here’s my review. It’s grim, unsettling, and barbed in a way that feels like everyone got involved knew they couldn’t get away with anything like this twice. If you’re looking for some Halloween viewing that will stick around in your nightmares for a while, look no further.
