Notable differences between the Book and The 1977 film
Some difference between the book and the film (1970’s) is first of all the book is under the science-fiction category while the film made in the 1970’s is classified as a Gothic horror movie. In the book the Man Beast slowly turn back into their animals state and do not technically die, while in the film all the man-beasts die in a fire in the compound or died fighting wild animals. Monotergomy dies fighting with the man-beasts after giving them some alchoal, and getting himself and them drunk, while in the film he dies from Moreau shotting him because he objected to the idea of torturing Braddock. Their is no women on the island on the book and the people on the island are all males, while in the movie there is Maria who is obviously a female.
Another difference is in the Book the hero is a man called Prendick who is a English scientist while in the movie the hero is called Braddock and he is a sailor. Moreau dies by trying to recapture a escaped panther and was killed in a fight with it, while in the movie Moreau is killed by his own Creations (the man-beasts) after breaking one of their rules. In the book Braddock is rescued by a passing ship while floating out in the Ocean, but Prendick was rescued by a ship he found on the shore of the island.
