A shipwreck leaves Edward Prendick stranded on a remote island in the South Pacific. What should be salvation quickly becomes nightmare. The island is ruled by Dr. Moreau, a brilliant but unhinged scientist who has fled civilization to indulge in forbidden experiments.
Here, animals scream under his knife, reshaped into grotesque parodies of humanity. Prendick watches in horror as Moreau’s creations stumble through existence, trapped between beast and man. Order teeters on the edge of collapse, and the line between cruelty and progress dissolves.
As Prendick searches for escape, he confronts not only the horrors of Moreau’s laboratory but the uneasy truth about mankind itself. In this timeless tale of science without conscience, survival may cost more than sanity.
