Story Synopsis:
Is he a madman or simply behaving with animal Instinct? Noted anthropologist Ethan Powell (Hopkins) has been deemed criminally insane, but psychiatrist Theo Caulder (Gooding) believes there may be a very different explanation to this once highly respected scientist’s departure from reality. Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me scene-stealer Verne Troyer plays one of the gorillas encountered by Powell during the lush tropical scenes.
