Island of Lost Souls was remade in 1977 into The Island of Dr. Moreau, with Burt Lancaster and Michael York in the lead roles.
The remake also starred Barbara Carrera, as Maria, the ward of Dr. Moreau.
At one point in the film, the characters decide to have a swanky dinner where they dress up, including Maria--only Maria still goes barefoot.
When I saw this in the theater as a kid, I thought The Island of Dr. Moreau wasn't very good. The original Island of Lost Souls was still far better (and still is).
But then, as now, the sight of Maria sans shoes made this flick watchable for me.
