Terror Is A Man

This rarely seen 1959 film is one of the true horror classics of the silver screen. "Terror is a Man" tells the weird tale of a doctor on an isolated island who performs surgery on a large jungle cat, attempting to turn the animal into a man. What he succeeds in creating is a creature so tormented it only lives to kill. If you're looking for the finest in horror flicks from the Philippines, and who isn't? start your search right here. A blatant low-budget rip-off of H.G. Wells's The Island of Dr. Moreau, Terror Is a Man is nevertheless an unexpectedly evocative little creeper on its own terms. A shipwrecked American washes up on the shore of the alarmingly named Isla de Sangre (that would be "Blood Island"), where he meets a scientist engaged in a cruel experiment: turning a panther into a human being. Why wait for evolution, the doctor reasons, to advance a whole new species?
