Said Alan Brien of THE SUNDAY TIMES (UK) -
"The most impressive film maudit , possibly too hot to handle, is Victor Schonfeld's The Animals Film , a polemical onslaught, stuffed with footage never before shown, and a wealth of newly-shot material often taken undercover, which documents...mankind's degradation, exploitation, and often pointless torture, of the creatures who share our planet.
He proves, beyond contradiction, that this behavior is not just random or personal but part of our organized society, with drug companies, government departments, scientists, military authorities, factory farmers, university research laboratories, for their own selfish ends, for profit in money or prestige." Narrated by Academy Award Winner Julie Christie. 25th anniversary edition. 120 min/DVD
