Audience Member From director Eddie Romero (AKA Enrique Moreno), the Filipino exploitation filmmaker behind jungle classics like "Black Mama White Mama" and "Savage Sisters" comes this very silly, but very entertaining ripoff of H.G. Wells' "The Island of Dr. Moreau." A scuba diver is snatched out of the water and and finds himself on an island where a mad scientist has created monstrous half-man/half-animal creatures. The Moreau figure rules over his beasts with an iron fist, and as you'd expect, they rebel against him in a violent bloody fashion. It's all amateurishly made and certainly made on the cheap, but it is entertaining. To add to the enjoyment level of this nonsense is Pam Grier in a before-she-was-famous role as the "Panther Woman." Certainly not a good film, but I was entertained. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty damn boring, if this movie is any indication! The only reasons to see this movie are the goofy bat-man (in a memorable flying sequence) and the goddess herself, Pam Grier, as a laughable panther-woman. Otherwise, avoid at all costs! Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Best rip off of Island of Doctor Moreau ever. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member What is really just a 70s exploitation up date of Island of Lost Souls I thought this would be one of those so bad it's sorta good movies ever since I saw the trailer on the Jackie Brown DVD. Just about anything w/ Pam Grier Im sold but you don't get to see her @ her sexy best as Panther Woman. Actually that's not true. I was moderately turned on when she was rolling on the jungle floor purring. I wish she gave herself a tongue bath. These products of genetic experiments are a fucking riot as you also get Antelope Man, Bat Man (no not Caped Crusader), Wolf Woman & Ape Man. Actually Ape Man didn't seem so apish & sorta reminded me of Benicio Del Toro as Duke the Dog-Faced Boy in Big Top Pee Wee. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be though & & moderate fun for those who like these Philippines cheapies, It's just a fucking shame this was rated PG Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member [img]http://img34.photobucket.com/albums/v104/iriz03/twilight_people.jpg[/img] [color=white]Directed by Eddie Romero[/color] With John Ashley, Pat Woodell, and Pam Grier as the Panther Woman. [color=cyan][u]MPAA[/u][/color]:PG(violence) I didn't even know I had this movie, so with nothing else to do, I decided to watch it. I knew what to expect and I knew that I was about to see a bad monster movie and I was right. The film is about a scuba-diver (Matt Farrell)who is kidnapped while he's underwater and brought on shore to Dr. Gordon's lab in where people are turned into monsters.-_-. The scuba diver falls in love with the scientist's daughter (Neva) and together they free the monsters and try to escape the island. I really don't understand people that like to watch bad horror movies for fun. I guess they call these films "B-Movies". It's a pretty boring movie with bad makeup (the blood looks like paint), costumes, acting, but the most excruciating part was the sound effects. Your ears will start hurting after hearing the annoying roars and growls of the monsters especially the panther woman. Besides the panther woman we also have an antelope man, a wolf woman, a batman and an ape-man. They could've at least had a decent ending because I didn't quite understand if the movie was about the scuba-diver and the scientist's daughter struggle to get out of the island or the monsters revenge on the scientist. Pretty stupid ending because it ends when the scientist dies and the bat man escapes for freedom and then the credits roll. What about our two heroes?!! The rest of the monsters die of ridiculous reasons. The panther woman and the wolf lady have a cat fight, the ape man wants to rape Neva so she kills him, and the antelope man gets killed by one of the guards. So stupid, [i]Twilight People[/i] is only for people that enjoy watching bad monster movies and I'm definitely not one of them.
