They literally made a movie about killer rabbits, but they filmed *Real* rabbits to do it! So then they use a lot of FX to make the rabbits appear giant, and slo-mo to make them appear menacing. It's one of the worst scifi films I've ever seen (and I've seen 'em all, trust me). Somehow they got DeForrest Kelley to act in it (this was a few years after "Star Trek" was cancelled, so maybe he needed the dough). I included a Wikipedia summary below, but first, check this link for a crazy pic!! http://www.agonybooth.com/lepus/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Lepus Night of the Lepus is a 1972 B-movie horror film in which giant mutant rabbits terrorize the Southwestern United States. The film was directed by William F. Claxton, written by Don Holliday and Gene R. Kearney, and starred Kevin Purcell as the main character, as well as Janet Leigh, Rory Calhoun, and DeForest Kelley, best known for his performance as Dr. Leonard McCoy on Star Trek. It was adapted from the novel The Year of the Angry Rabbit written by Russell Braddon. The film is relatively obscure, but maintains a small but devout cult following, and has even been referenced in some more mainstream, popular films. For instance, footage appears briefly in the science fiction film The Matrix, and throughout the drama film Natural Born Killers. It has been referenced in Judge Frank Easterbrook's opinion in ProCD, Inc. v. Zeidenberg, 86 F.3d 1447 (7th Cir. 1996). ************ (Synopsis) Rancher Cole Hillman is having problems with the rabbit population on his ranch, who are destroying his crops. College president Elgin Clark, as a favor to benefactor Cole, calls in zoologists Roy and Gerry Bennett, who create an (untested) serum for disrupting the breeding cycle of rabbits. However, their daughter Amanda has become attached to the uninjected rabbit that has become the serum's test subject, and switches it with an already-injected bunny. The injected rabbit gets away and breeds. The serum doesn't disrupt their breeding cycle, but does something worse: it causes the rabbits to become gigantic meat-eaters. When several people are slaughtered by the carnivorous carrot-munchers, Roy and Gerry attempt to find a solution before the whole of the American Southwest is overrun by giant rabbits. -------------- Original message -------------- From: "maidmarian_thepoet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Let me know when SciFi makes it up to killer rabbits.
