Just finished rewatching the movie "The Ghost and the Darkness" starring Val Kilmer and Mike Douglas.

The lion scenes are amazing. I get cold shivers just thinking about confronting such a magnificent beast. Guess that explains why I chose Lion as my userid.

If you haven't seen this movie, it's worth it just for the Lion scenes.

The movie is very entertaining, even if it does "Hollywoodize" Lt. Col. Patterson's true life account in his book 'Maneaters of Tsavo'. I don't care much for the insertion of Michael Douglas' character in the movie, but understand he did direct the movie, so he can pretty much do what he wants. I do like the movie, though.

I don't care much for the movie either...It's entertaining but I don't watch it for that...Just for the magnificent lion scenes...Just never get tired of seeing them...
