Night of the Lepus film?

Question

I watched this film as a kid, about 8 I think. Firstly, why did my parents let me watch a film that scared the 'knickers' off me. It made me petrified of rabbits ever since. It is now available to buy so after watching it last night, it was a load of rubbish. The effects are truly 'amazing'. Don't know how a film like that scared me all those years ago. Anybody else remember watching it?

Answer 1

Yeah I remember that movie. DeForest Kelly was in it. I think he was the only reason that I saw that movie to begin with. I also saw that movie when I was a kid too. Sometimes you can, in other movies, the footage of the rabbits running through the town on a TV.

Oh and by the way brian m, Lupus in latin = wolf Lepus in latin = Rabbit

Answer 2

I remember it well. Back then it was da bomb! It was during the era when people at movies were most terrified by real creatures of earth gone amok: spiders, alligators, etc. They really reached on the whole rabbit issue, though. Sort of like 'Puppies Eat Manhattan."

Answer 3

I thought i was the only one who had seen that film. not to be pedantic but i thought it was night of the lupus. i used to think i had imagined it as noone else had ever heard of it.
