Review of Manhunter (1986) by Dave C — 08 Aug 2008
THE original, and best, Thomas Harris-based film. It was a travesty they remade this into "Red Dragon." This one is a classic Michael Mann, nitty-gritty cop movie, not the polished, high-budget, homogenized tripe they tried to pass off with "Red Dragon.
" If you want to know what makes Hannibal Lektor tick, you'll learn more about him in the few minutes he appears in this movie than in both "Silence of the Lambs" and "Hannibal.
".
