The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977) is the second movie version of the H.G. Wells science fiction novel about a scientist who attempts to convert animals into people, starring Burt Lancaster, Michael York, Barbara Carrera, and Richard Basehart. Lancaster perfectly matches Wells' description of Moreau's physical appearance, unlike the other two actors to play the role on screen, Charles Laughton in 1933's Island of Lost Souls and Marlon Brando in 1996's The Island of Dr. Moreau.
