Terror is a Man, the 1959 Gerry de Leon Filipino/U.S. horror thriller ("A Unique Experience in motion picture terror!"; "So Different - a Bell System Has Been Installed For the Squeamish and Faint-Hearted!!! When the Bell Rings we suggest you Close Your Eyes! It will ring again when it's safe to open them!"; "The Doctor - He gave up a Park Avenue practice"; "The Wife - She'd do anything to get back to society"; "The Intruder - He knew this was against the laws of nature"; based on the H.G. Wells novel, "The Island of Dr. Moreau") starring Francis Lederer, Greta Thyssen, Richard Derr, Oscar Keesee Jr., and Lilio Duran. Note that this movie used the gimmick of having a bell sound before the gory scenes, "for the squeamish and faint-hearted"!
