Torrent description

Excellent film based on a true story. In 1898 Henry Patterson is sent to East Africa to build a railway bridge, during this time over a nine month period two man-eating lions kill and eat 140 railway workers, Patterson has to kill the lions to enable the work to continue, close to the truth apart from the addition of one character, the hunter played by Michael Douglas and the actual lions although male never had manes, the scenery is stunning, the musical score is haunting, the action is edge of the seat stuff, a mystical film that is hard to believe if it wasnt for the fact that it was true, no man-eaters like these have ever been recorded in historybefore or since, a must see film but be warned it is gory at times. The stuffed skins of the two man-eating lions depicted in this film can be seen on display at the Field Museum in Chicago, Illinois.
