Shipwrecked scientist Edward Prendick finds himself stranded on a remote island inhabited by Doctor Moreau, a disgraced physiologist conducting horrific experiments. Through vivisection, Moreau transforms animals into human-like creatures called the Beast Folk, who struggle to maintain their humanity under a strict code of laws.

confronts questions about the boundaries of science, the nature of human identity, and the price of unchecked ambition. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
