Silence of the Lambs is actually a sequel to a movie called
ManHunter . It was based off the novel
Red Dragon by Thomas Harris. It is alot better then Silence of the Lambs. Hannibal is a decent flick, I went and seen it on the night it came out. Not near as good as the book (which isn\'t that good in its own rights). I will probably pick up Hannibal when it comes out on the 21st, but I already own Manhunter (best in the series
) and Silence of the Lambs.
