Brimming with oddities and visually magnetic, Ishii's twisted

Brimming with oddities and visually magnetic, Ishii's twisted take on Dr. Moreau's famous island not only succeeds as an example of Japanese cult cinema but it has a rousing mystery at its core to boot.

A Doctor Moreau... that's Japanese.

It's funny that Ishii says he was not familiar with the Moreau storyline because this flick looks so much like a crazy adaptation for it. Not an intense feature but one that will serve you very memorable freaky and somewhat psychedelic moments that, out of the wild context, will remind you of all the Japanese contemporary horror everyone yells for (think Ring, Dark Water as much as video games like Siren and Project Zero...). Very poorly written plot, but who cares when they're served such crazy visions and a final I would place in my top 10 of mindblowing movie endings - but that's just me... That's a very hard to see movie, and well worth seeing if you get the chance.
