    Is it a merchant ivory film?

    Well so far

    Is it Alien 2? Did the alien have Newt, the little girl in her clutches? It's been years since I last saw that film so I can't really remember.

    It's not Merchant Ivory, but you're heading in the right direction.

    The Lion in Winter?

    Yup :)

    The cannibal is Anthony Hopkins, secret agent is Timothy Dalton, Katherine Hepburn is a real dame and Peter O'Toole the expert in desert warfare.

    There's an Irish connection to this one. A youngster is kidnapped and taken away. Parent sets off to the rescue with a roaring rampage of revenge defying all.

    One of the Species movies?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,162 ✭✭✭MadDog76


    Nope, think bigger.

    He of "The Saga of the Viking Women and Their Voyage to the Waters of the Great Sea Serpent" ? LOL

    No , but yes it's a monster B-Movie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,455 ✭✭✭maudgonner



    Thank the lord for that, we could have been here all night going through Corman movies :)

    (Corman used to have a studio in Connemara - that's why I wondered about the Irish connection)
