Moreau chains the Devil, or describes said chaining, in The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996). There results the odd snout, claw, or hoof in the sublime quest of the good/very weird Doctor, but hey. Marlon Brando quite boggles the mind, and David Thewlis projects unconvincedness to the Nth degree. A hugely underrated film that is really only recently getting its due.
Thewlis becomes, if possible, even more unconvinced, as he wildly proclaims āThis is the *most* OUTRAGEOUS spectacle...ā, āLook at these people!!!!ā, and such. Brando has seen it all before, and patiently allows David T. to vent.
Hmmm.
Deep thoughts being had, of a devil-chaining persuasion.
Unconvinced. Openly skeptical.
Why the skepticism?? Well, let me thoughtfully parse it out.
