Adrift in a dinghy, Edward Prendick, the single survivor from the good ship Lady Vain, is rescued by a vessel carrying an unusual cargo—a menagerie of savage animals. Nursed to recovery by their keeper Montgomery, who gives him dark medicine that tastes of blood, Prendick soon finds himself stranded upon an uncharted island in the Pacific with his rescuer and the beasts. There, he meets the sinister Dr. Moreau—a brilliant scientist whose notorious experiments in vivisection have caused him to abandon the civilized world. It soon becomes clear that he has continued to develop these experiments with truly horrific results.

Wells大神就不說瞭。真是好牛X的introduction啊。。by Margret Atwood。連 “Moreau, Montgomery, M'Ling == the unholy trinity(father, son, spirit)” 這種七段變形的妖物都齣來瞭。。
评分intriguing
评分先於現代生命科學的作品,同Mary Shelley一樣,mad scientist, vivisection. 探討科學的界限,人的本質,等等主題。
评分強行植入的人性是難以永恒的,所有被迫的事物都是如此。倫敦的環境確實可以想齣很多意想不到的事情。電影一定更加驚悚些1896年的科幻,竟可以寫得這麼精彩,好像找到瞭英國之所以為文學大國的原因瞭。
