  • Summary

  • In this wild episode, Stuart and Jacob venture into the bizarre world of "The Island of Dr. Moreau" by comparing the 1977 adaptation with the infamous 1996 version. They discuss the transition from the original's more straightforward narrative to the chaotic production and wacky performances of the remake. How do these films reflect the challenges of adapting classic literature into film? And what happens when a production spirals out of control?


    Also in this episode are discussions about the bizarre antics of Marlon Brando, the surprisingly subdued 1977 film, the potential influence of Michael Crichton (or ON Michael Crichton?), and the hypothetical question of what animal hybrid they would become. All this and more on They Remade It!
