The Ghost and the Darkness (a mostly true story) is about a pair of male mane-less lions who go on a man-hunting spree while a railroad is being built in Africa. Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas star as hired hunters in this action/adventure thriller where the lions are given almost superhuman attributes as the terror mounts along with the body count. Decent film.
Hawthorne: I wouldn't have thought bravery would be a problem for you.
Charles Remington: Well, you hope each time it won't be... But you never really know.
Trivia: Col Patterson's employer, Dr Beaumont, played by Tom Wilkinson, was actually eaten by a lion while visiting Africa.
