"Excellent thriller. Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer are outstanding." -- Reno Gazette-Journal
In the late 1800s British Army engineer J.H. Patterson (Val Kilmer) is sent to East Africa to build a bridge over the Tsavo river. Things go smoothly until workers start disappearing from their tents, victims of a pair of seemingly intelligent man-eating lions. Patterson tries everything to get rid of the beasts, but his superiors send notorious hunter Charles Remington (Michael Douglass) to kill them. Guns in hand, Patterson and Remington must work together to vanquish the feline predators.
