Hannibal(2001): Where Do We Even Start With This Garbage?
Send us a textHappy April Fool's Day, everybody! We hate our lives now. Our second movie to celebrate April 1st is the one KATRINA hates the most. Loathes entirely! It's the 2001, what-the-hell-were-they-thinking, sequel to an actually great movie, (Silence of the Lambs) Ridley Scott's Hannibal. ANNA is gonna try with all her might to get a button push off that crafty Katrina, but it's not gonna be easy. Hope you enjoy it! Because we will never do this again.
