Directed by Peter Hyams. Written by Amy Holden Jones, John Raffo, Amanda Silver, and Rick Jaffa. Based on the novel by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. Starring Penelope Ann Miller, Tom Sizemore, Linda Hunt and James Whitmore.
Plot: a lizard-like creature starts eating people in a Chicago museum.
Dr. Green (Miller) works as an evolutionary biologist in a Chicago museum. During opening night, a lock-down is ordered after someone goes missing. Later, some people are attacked by a creature and all hell breaks loose.
It’s a good movie. Really good. The creature is cool looking. There’s a great motive, a great cast and a great ending. It followed rules it said out and it was impressively realistic for a creature feature. However, she didn’t wear gloves when touching everything and we know that to be wrong, but we forgave it. What I couldn’t forgive, the dogs dying. We still recommend it though.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
