Hannibal rising is the 5th film to be made in the series of films 4 of which are based on novels by Thomas Harris, the first 4 being man hunter,silence of the lambs, hannibal and red dragon.
I was always baffled by the way these films were released in rather an odd order but it always seemed to keep me wanting to see the next one released to find out more about this man who was so dangerous yet fasinated me so much, this 4th film puts all of the story together for me at least by showing me where it all came from and what had happened that was so traumatic that hannible had turned into the monster he did.
I actually if i am honest never realised this film had been made as it didnt recieve any where near the publicity that the other films did and came across it by accident but was very glad i had.
telling you pritty much anything to the plot of this story would be giving away a lot and would be spoiling it, what i will say though is that it is the love for the sister he lost that pritty much has made him the way he is, her death was horrendus and if you are weak stomached you may not want to watch this film as it is very graphic and violent at times although very watchable and has something that keeps you watching however much the violence makes you cringe as you want to know more about his life. It answered a lot of things for me like the fact he is a loner with no family at all, this explains why, the way he turned out and the reasons he is the way he is today.
This film was released in 2007 and is based on the novel released in 2006, it is available from amazon for less than £3, it is 125 minutes long but doesnt feel that long when you are watching it and is certificated as an 18 which is very apropriate
If you have seen the other 3 you realy do need to watch this to put all of the pieces together.
