Based on a true story, THE GHOST AND THE DARKNESS takes place in Africa during the late 1890s and concerns two ferocious lions who killed 130 railroad construction workers in only two months.

This is a great historical film. I recently watched it with friends who had never heard of the incident before and were amazed that this really happened. If you want something education but still entertaining this would be a great pick for you. Although I would not recommend this movie to be viewed with small children, some parts are very graphic and bloody. I received my order promptly and the price was great.
I absolutely love this movie. It has good acting and a very good story line, mostly because its based on a true story. I must see, will have you on the edge of your seat!
