I have to see this film some day! Everything I've heard about it sounds fascinating.

I recommend it! I watched it off TCM, but there is a Criterion Blu-Ray/DVD if that does you any good. [edit: Plus a Masters of Cinema Blu-Ray/DVD if Region 2 is better.] If you're going to look for it on the internet, try for a high-quality copy. It's an amazing-looking film on top of everything else, with a sweaty, semi-futuristic set design for Moreau's tropical laboratory that's half Joseph Conrad and half Art Deco.
