Rainey Dawn The beginning of this film is rather boring - not enough action and horror. It took an hour to get really capture my interest - and I usually enjoy this type of film from start to finish. The beginning is OK - it just needed to get to "the good stuff" earlier in the film - it's SLOW - not wait an hour before it got good. The last 25-30 minutes of the movie is a fun horror to watch... I enjoyed it.I really wanted to like this film better - it looked so good but it was a disappointment to me. Good ending - slow beginning. I'm sorry but the first hour of the film felt like 3 hours to me while the last 30 minutes of it seemed to pass by very fast.4/10
kapelusznik18 ***SPOILERS*** Being the soul survivor of the freighter "Pedro Queen" that sank in a typhoon in the South Pacific William Fitzgerald, Richard Derr, finds himself stranded on the island of Isla De Sangre where he's rescued by the local natives and brought to. Dr. Charles Girard's, Francis Lederer, seaside home to be nursed back to health. It's there that Fitzgerald finds out that the doc's wife the stunningly beautiful blond Frances, the former Miss. Denmark Greta Thyssen,is bored as hell in her obsessed husband's experiments in jump starting the evolution of the species! Who was more turned on and interested in his mad experiments then in her. What Dr. Girard is trying to create is the perfect man and do it by speeding up the evolutionary process by a few months then the usual thousand or millions of years that evolution takes to do it.There's also Dr. Girard's assistant Walter, Oscar Kesse, who's got his eyes more on Frances then the Doc's experiments. It's the horny Walter who want's to experiment, if you know what I mean, with her more then with the creatures that the Doc is working on. What Dr. Girard is trying to create is what looks like a cat-man in a mummy costume that will, in his deranged mind, advance the human race some thousands of years into the future in both intelligence and creativity! What a nut job!***SPOILERS*** As it turns out it's the hero of the movie William Fitzgerald who sees through Dr. Girard's insanity who secretly plans to escape from the island and take Frances along with him who had since fallen heads over heels in love with him. It's when the cat-man escapes and kills a number of people, including Walter, on the island Dr. Girard thinking that he's his friend and won't hurt him, here kitty kitty kitty, ends up getting clawed and thrown to his death by it who's by now sick and tired, now being a free man or cat, of being experimented on by him.***MAJOR SPOILER*** Now free to leave the island Fitzgerald and Frances are shocked to find out that the only boat to escape left on the island was commandeered by the cat-man himself despite having been shot a number of times. At the conclusion of the film we see cat-man sailing into the sunset leaving the two behind to meet the fate that awaits them!
Claudio Carvalho The castaway William Fitzgerald (Richard Derr) is rescued in an island by Dr. Charles Girard (Francis Lederer), his lonely wife Frances Girard (Greta Thyssen) and his assistant Walter Perrera (Oscar Keesee Jr.). A couple of days later, Fitzgerald has an affair with Frances and realizes that the unethical and insane Dr. Girard is developing sick experiments and transforming a panther into a man-like creature. Meanwhile, the monster escapes from the laboratory, killing Walter and the servant Celina and seizing and capturing Frances with him. Fitzgerald and Dr. Girard chase the being along the night."Terror is a Man" is a watchable rip-off of "The Island of Dr. Moreau", with a monster that behaves like The Creature in "Frankenstein" and with the appearance of The Mummy. The story is silly, but considering that it is a very low-budget and theatrical B-movie, entertains. Unfortunately, the shameful DVD released in Brazil by the distributor Fantasy shows a completely damaged copy, "jumping" many scenes and making parts of the story impossible to be understood. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Criatura Sangrenta" ("Blood Creature")
Space_Mafune This film, obviously inspired by H.G. Wells THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU, takes a while to get going but does pick up near the end. The acting, production values and cinematography were superior than expectation for a low budget film made in the Philippines although it's difficult to find a good print throughout. There are some intense, suspenseful and disturbing moments in Dr. Girard's underground laboratory.
