In John Boorman's 1968 WWII drama Hell in the Pacific, Toshiro Mifune and Lee Marvin play Japanese and American soldiers forced to work together to survive when they find themselves stranded on a remote island. In Stanley Kramer's 1958 thriller The Defiant Ones, Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis play bickering escaped convicts forced to work in tandem due to being chained together. Both movies have been refashioned since - Hell in the Pacific as the '80s sci-fi Enemy Mine, The Defiant Ones as the '70s grindhouse fave Black Mama, White Mama - but with Monster Island, writer/director Mike Wiluan mashes these two setups together, adding dashes of Predator and Creature from the Black Lagoon to the mix.
