Adrift in a dinghy, Edward Prendick, the single survivor from the good ship Lady
Vain, is rescued by a vessel carrying a profoundly unusual cargo - a menagerie
of savage animals. Tended to recovery by their keeper Montgomery, who gives him
dark medicine that tastes of blood, Prendick soon finds himself stranded upon an
uncharted island in the Pacific with his rescuer and the beasts. Here, he meets
Montgomery's master, the sinister Dr. Moreau - a brilliant scientist whose
notorious experiments in vivisection have caused him to abandon the civilised
world. It soon becomes clear he has been developing these experiments - with
truly horrific results.
