Movie Rating
More than usually dingbat Universal horror movie. A mad scientist (Carradine) has become the world's top expert on hormones and uses this to turn a gorilla into a beautiful woman (Acquanetta). She gets a job helping the local lion tamer, and falls in love with him even though he's happily engaged to a nice sensible girl. You can probably guess most of the rest.

Not exactly The Exorcist, but still sort of undemanding fun for the most part - you can enjoy yourself by having a good groan at the ridiculous genre tropes or playing spot the stock footage. On the other hand, sensitive modern viewers may have genuine issues with the depiction of animal mistreatment (it looks very likely that animals were indeed harmed in the making of this movie).

In the end, it takes a long time to get going and never quite gets to the interesting places you're hoping for, but it's such a silly and slight piece of work that this isn't a surprise. Passes the time amusingly.

Autobiography of the “Supervet”
Didn’t we all want to be a vet when we were little? Well Noel Fitzpatrick held onto that dream and is now the well respected and amazing Supervet.
It was quite surprising to read how he was bullied relentlessly at secondary school. He grew up on the family farm where his passion for animals began, but this was quite an isolated start in life apart from his many siblings. He had to work hard on the farm.
Moving to secondary school meant meeting more worldly boys from the towns and he didn’t fit in. But he found ways to cope and threw himself into his studies which he still does even now.
His strong working life has come at a cost to a personal life but he does go into past relationships and regrets.
Noel Fitzpatrick has a vision for veterinary and human medicine to be able to work together and is determined to work towards that goal.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this autobiography.
