Yay, more Hannibal Lecter!
Hannibal Rising is supposed to be opening in theaters tomorrow. Having read the book and enjoyed it a lot, I definitely want to see it. I might even go by myself to see it.
What bugs me is that it's being proclaimed as a "horrifyingly scary" movie....
I didn't see anything scary in the book... and I understand that the movie is pretty much exactly the book brought to life. Are they talking about the guy playing young Hannibal? I've seen him do that creepy grin, but by the time I finished reading the book, I was so firmly on Hannibal's side that I admire the way he was able to scare certain people for what they'd done to him. I won't say any more than that, just in case somebody stumbles across my blog. I don't want to spoil it for them if they didn't read Hannibal and figure out for themselves what this book & movie would be about. Come on, it's a thought he just keeps coming back to repeatedly.
Very transparent, if you ask me. But a great story. IMDB page - Hannibal Rising
And I'm pleased to see that they included the scene with the man he puts in the Formalin tank... In the trailer you can see him in there screaming half under, and beating on the window with his open hand. HAHAHA Well, when you know the story, you understand why that treatment is well-deserved.
Maybe it's that scary person inside of me that wants justifiable revenge, but refuses to do more than sit back and wait for the wheel to spin around on those people. I know it isn't my place to exact revenge, and if I'm just patient, I know it will all come back around and they'll get what's coming to them.
Besides, hurting people (even bad people) is just the wrong thing to do. I'm not that person, but sometimes she does start looking out through my eyes when I'm hurt.
