Lancaster is a perfect Moreau- cold and menacing. The script is well written- it's set in the period the original story was.

The low-budget effects totally detroyed any credibility of this production though. The animal creatures are so poorly done they're laughable instead of frightening. I mean really poorly done. If they had had a decent budget and time to make great creature effects this film could have been good.
First date with my "now" wife was a double feature at the drive-in....this movie and oddly enough "The Bad News Bears".
