Odd use of camera angles mid way through though.....

Post by: Kanth on October 26, 2002, 10:46:54 AM: Saw Silence of the Lambs, thot it rocked.

Saw the second one, whatever it was called.
What waste of money..and anthoney hopkins is one of my favorite actors.

now I'm super leery, if I hear how great Red Dragon is, I'll check it out when it gets to blockbuster, otherwise I'm blowing that set off now.

So far I haven't heard much about Red Dragon and it's been out a while.

Try Manhunter (http://us.imdb.com/Title?0091474). It's the original movie made from the book, Red Dragon.

Stars William Peterson and Bryan Cox plays Lecter. Directed by Michael Mann (Heat, Miami Vice).

It came out before SOTL. It's rather faithful to the book, but Hopkins does Lecter better than Cox. FWIW, I thought the book, Red Dragon sucked. Not as much as Hannibal, but right up there.

It's been years and I can't remember the differences between the two endings?

Can you explain?
