Poor William Fitzgerald (Derr) finds himself on the island of Dr. Moreau (or more likely its first film adaptation, Island of Lost Souls). Almost everyone familiar with Terror Is a Man has noted its extreme similarity to H.G. Their horror careers got off to a roaring start with the Hemisphere Pictures production Terror Is a Man, later a hit under the title Blood Creature, and either together or separately they continued the string of creature features with films like The Twilight People and the outrageous 'Blood Island' trilogy for which they are still best remembered. The Philippines isn't exactly known to modern viewers for its booming horror film industry, but for a period through the 1960s and '70s), producer-director Eddie Romero and director Gerardo 'Gerry' de Leon put the country on the exploitation map by shooting exotic low budget gore epics and releasing them under campy titles guaranteed to have parents dragging their kids to church services for penance.

Vegetation is usually more abundant, as seeds are carried from remote lands by wind, water currents, and birds.Directed by Gerardo de Leon and Eddie Romero Oceanic islands are generally characterized by low faunal diversity, consisting of a few sea birds and insects. These low islands only occur in tropical ocean areas.

Oceanic islands that result from coral growth on the summit of seamounts are called coral islands or atolls (see coral reefs). Oceanic islands may also be the emergent tips of volcanoes (seamounts) formed by hotspots. Island arcs, such as the Aleutian Islands, result from magmatic activity associated with the convergence of lithospheric plates (see plate tectonics). Oceanic islands can result from volcanic islands rising above the water, especially on or near a mid-ocean ridge, as when the island of Surtsey appeared along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge S of Iceland in 1963. Other islands emerge along coasts as barrier islands, such as the Outer Banks, off North Carolina. Typical continental islands are Great Britain and Martha's Vineyard. Continental islands are created by rise in sea level where only the summits of coastal highlands remain above water or by the sea breaking through an isthmus or peninsula and cutting the land from the mainland. Depending on their origin, islands are either continental or oceanic. (As the oceans form a continuous mass of water on the earth's surface, all continents are islands in the strict sense of the word.) The largest islands on earth are, in descending order of size, Greenland, New Guinea, Borneo, Madagascar, Baffin Island, Sumatra, Honshu (largest of the islands of Japan), and Great Britain.
