Island of Lost Souls (part 1)

Kathleen Burke stars in the 1932 version of The Island of Lost Souls as the Panther Woman.

She's the result of an experiment by Dr. Moreau, played by Charles Laughton in a great, creepy performance.

And Burke goes barefoot throughout the film--possibly because of her primal nature.

The original version is a very old flick--91 years old as of this writing--and if that's too creaky for you, it's been remade twice.

In 1996, it was remade as The Island of Dr. Moreau, featuring Fairuza Balk as this film's version of "Panther Girl."

Balk had several scenes where she went barefoot, such as this one where the film's hero walks in on her little dance.

But unlike Burke, who went barefoot throughout Island of Lost Souls, Balk only has a few scenes here and there where she went BF.
