Marvin is in his early thirties and utterly
unsuccessful. Currently, he works as a clerk in
the evidence department of a police station but
his ultimate goal is to become a policeman.
The reason Marvin wants to be a policeman
so desperately is that his father was killed
on duty. He wants to pay homage to his
father but at the rate his life is going,
the dream might never come true.
The next day is the selection for
the police force. It turns out, in the last
selection process, Marvin didn’t just fail
but humiliated himself after peeing his pants.
The competition starts and Marvin is immediately
behind everyone, forgetting which way he should
run. He makes several foolish mistakes throughout
the course and fails the test one more time. It
doesn’t come as a surprise to anyone as the entire
police force is used to seeing Marvin lose.
At home, Marvin is watching TV when a particular
commercial attracts his attention. It is
advertising a supplement made of 25% badger
milk which magically makes men gain muscles.
Fascinated by the women in the commercial,
Marvin decides to get a can for himself.
The next day at work, Marvin is left alone in
the office while the rest of the crew goes outside
to play baseball. Just then, he gets a phone call
from a lady complaining about a group of robbers
threatening to kill people. Marvin quickly
informs his colleagues through a microphone
but they do not hear him in the field.
He thinks of it as a chance to prove his worth
and decides to go to the location himself.
He hopes to save the day and become
everyone’s hero but the plan goes downhill
when he is met with an accident on the way. His
vehicle flies off the road and down a hill.
The Animal 2001 Full Movie Watch Online
When it gets dark, a man in a gorilla costume
comes to his rescue and drags him to a hideout.
The man happens to be a doctor who “fixes”
Marvin and keeps him back at the crash site.
Upon waking up, Marvin is confused but the
memory of the crash soon comes to him. He is
glad that he doesn’t have a single broken bone
and doesn’t remember the doctor at all.
Following that, he returns home, still
hazy from the medicines he was given.
A dog that used to always attack him, leaps
at him once again. But strangely enough,
it stops midway and runs into its kennel.
The special body-building supplement has been
delivered to his house. Although it doesn’t
look appetizing, Marvin gulps it down,
hoping to gain superhuman strength.
After the shower, he wiggles himself like a dog to
dry off. He doesn’t think much of it but when he
turns around, we see his back has grown abnormally
long hair. That day, he returns to work and finds
out he has been missing for an entire week.
His friend asks him to go to the doctor
but Marvin feels better than ever.
What he doesn’t know is that the doctor who
treated him after the crash has replaced his
damaged organs with that of animals. Because some
parts of the brain were exchanged for a dog’s,
Marvin has gained some characteristics of a dog.
Similarly, he also feels the emotions of a bird,
a cat, a horse, and many other animals.
On his morning jog, Marvin surprises himself
by racing a horse. He relates it
to the special supplement he ate
yesterday and is happy that it worked.
He also bumps into a woman named Rianna,
walking her dogs in the park. She is an animal
lover and was recently on the news for spending
an entire night on a tree. As they talk,
Marvin notices a man throwing a frisbee. He
cannot suppress his urges and ends up
catching the frisbee with his mouth.
Later that day, he goes to meet a friend at the
airport. Because of his heightened sense of smell,
he can tell that a man has illegal substances
on him. The security checks the guy at Marvin’s
request but doesn’t find anything. However, an
adamant Marvin stops the guy again and brings out
a package he had hidden inside his behind.
Everyone claps for Marvin, praising his
intelligence and bravery. Because of his
contribution, he is finally deemed fit to be
a police officer. After years of waiting, the day
finally comes when he is appointed to duty.
Later, he is on his way back home when
the doctor who treated him after the crash
stops him. His name is Dr. Wilder, a mad scientist
who is obsessed with human-animal fusion. He tells
Marvin the truth about his newfound abilities.
The doctor wanted to see how Marvin will adapt
to life as a new person, but now that he is
gaining attention, he has to be sustained.
When Marvin refuses to oblige, he is hit with
a tranquilizer gun. According to the doctor,
soon, Marvin won’t be able to suppress
his animalistic urges which might
create trouble for people around him.
Still, Marvin refuses to be confined as an
animal and runs away from the barn where he was
abducted. A few days later, the doctor’s concerns
come to life when Marvin starts digging into the
trash for bones thrown by his colleagues.
But more problem arises as his sexual needs start
escalating. Upon seeing women on the street,
he cannot help but hump a mailbox.
He even feels attracted to a catfish
because of how its mouth looks.
On the brighter side, he starts feeling
more compassionate towards animals and impresses
Rianna by feeding a bird with his mouth. She is
an animal lover and owns a lot of them. The duo
comes closer because of their shared interest.
The following morning, Marvin wakes up in a meat
shop with his belly protruding out of his shirt.
He immediately goes to the doctor and asks him
for help. Dr. Wilder wants to keep him as a pet
but Marvin insists that he is happy in his life as
a policeman; he only needs some assistance. Hence,
the doctor teaches him how to endure and
suppress the urges. He makes Marvin eat a
lot of meat and trains him like a dog.
The next day, Marvin and the sergeant go
out to a farm to investigate some missing
animals. Marvin carries toys and treats with
him to distract himself when he gets the
urge to do something that he shouldn’t.
On the farm, Marvin’s eyes land upon a goat
who has been separated from the other animals
because they cannot resist her. Strangely enough,
Marvin also feels the same but is kicked away by
the animal before he gets too close to her.
On their way back, the sergeant sees Rianna
walking her dogs. Unaware that she is interested
in Marvin, he hits on her. When Rianna rejects
him for his junior, the officer’s ego is hurt.
As a result, he makes it his mission to get
Marvin kicked out of the police force.
Following the interaction, the two go to a
high-profile party organized by the city’s mayor.
Everything goes well until a cat snarls at Marvin
and triggers his dog-like urges. He disturbs the
entire party to chase after the cat. In the end,
he has to be stopped by his colleagues. The mayor
is furious at him for ruining the party. He asks
the head of the police department to kick
Marvin out as soon as he gets the chance.
Right then, Marvin hears a splash and follows the
sound. It turns out the mayor’s son has dropped
into a pond and is drowning. Marvin jumps
just at the right moment to save the kid.
The mayor is beyond thankful to him, alongside
all the guests. Even the sergeant starts
respecting Marvin after the incident.
Later that day, Marvin and Rianna go out
to a restaurant on a date. Marvin keeps
his urges in check for the most part but
when Rianna goes to the washroom for a while,
he pees under the table after smelling it.
Rianna returns and recognizes the horrible smell
but Marvin passes it as the restaurant’s fault.
As they chat, her dress slips off her shoulder. An
animal like Marvin cannot control himself anymore
so he goes to the washroom to finish
the business. Seconds after returning,
he notices her turning around and has to
make a second trip to the bathroom.
Throughout the dinner, Marvin notices a waiter
trying to flirt with Rianna and getting a little
too close to her. Later, he finds the man outside
the restaurant and attacks him out of jealousy.
Upon reaching home Rianna invites Marvin inside
but he doesn’t want to risk attacking her so he
politely declines the offer.
But instead of returning home,
he subconsciously goes on a rampage on the nearby
farm. In the following scene, the farm owner is at
the police station, complaining about a beast
who attacked his animals last night. The head
officer recognizes the culprit’s sketch and calls
Marvin to his office. As the man scolds Marvin for
his inhuman behavior, Marvin licks his legs and
crotch area. In the end, he is suspended from the
police force for a month to work on himself.
A few days pass before we see him again. Rianna
goes to his house and finds it turned into
a nest with hay and branches everywhere.
Marvin wants her to go away for her own safety
because he doesn’t trust himself. However, Rianna
knows that he is having problems but still trusts
him. When she insists on staying the night, Marvin
comes up with a solution and asks her to tie
his hands. But things get steamy pretty quickly,
and they end up spending the night together.
Since Marvin’s hands are not bound, he goes on
a rampage yet again. In the morning, he wakes
up beside Rianna. Before the two can enjoy time
together, the police arrive outside the house.
This time, they are sure that Marvin was behind
the chaos that occurred at night.
Rianna, knowing that Marvin is innocent,
makes him run out the window. Using his new
skills, Marvin is able to get away from the
police but the news about him being a cow
assaulter makes it to the television.
The city’s finest officers and civilians
join hands to organize a search party
for him. They are all armed and ready to
kill Marvin as soon as they find him.
In the meantime, Marvin is running through the
woods when he comes across Dr. Wilder on a tree.
The doctor says he was picking apples but his
dart gun proves otherwise. Upon being urged to
tell the truth, he reveals that he performed the
same experiment on someone else and the person is
the one killing the animals, not Marvin.
They set out to look for the person but the
doctor fractures his foot, leaving Marvin on his
own. When no one is around, we see the doctor take
his socks off to reveal his animal-like foot.
The sergeant has set up a piece of meat in the
middle of the forest. Marvin falls right
into his trap and leaps for the meat,
only to be showered with bullets. He somehow
manages to climb a tree without getting shot.
After a long chase, the sergeant almost
falls off a cliff but is saved by
Marvin. When asked why he saved his rival,
Marvin replies that he is not an animal.
Still, the sergeant stays true to his duty
and points his gun at him. Right then,
Rianna jumps on top of him and knocks him out,
revealing that she is also Dr. Wilder’s patient.
She hopes that the revelation doesn’t change
anything between her and Marvin’s relationship.
Marvin agrees and the two kiss.
But then, the mob surrounds the duo,
wanting to kill both of them. Marvin’s
friend Miles takes the blame for everything,
revealing that he killed the animals.
Upon finding out that a black man was responsible,
the people don’t want to take action anymore.
They disperse as if nothing ever happened.
One year later, Marvin and Rianna are
married and have two children of their own.
While watching television, they see Dr. Wilder
win the Nobel Prize for his experiments.
He credits his fiancée Yolanda and kisses her to
display large scars on her back, implying that she
is also half animal and half human.
Thank You.
