Episode Details

Based (loosely) upon real events, this is the incredible story of an incident which occurred in 1896 on a railroad construction site in Africa run by the British Empire.  Two mysterious lions started mauling and killing dozen's of local workers, resulting in an intense effort lead by the British Colonel (Val Kilmer) overseeing the site....to hunt AND take down these two murderous lions.  The lions are nicknamed, "The Ghost" and "The Darkness" and they prove VERY difficult to find and kill! :o Written by Oscar-winner William Goldman (All the President's Men Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid) and directed by Stephen Hopkins (Predator 2, Blown Away, Lost in Space), this rousing adventure opened thirty years ago to middling box office and reviews....but has since built a bit of a cult following.  It co-stars Michael Douglas, John Kani, and Tom Wilkinson.
