This month, on the patrons-only We HATE Movies selection, the guys are flipping the script to present an episode on the Rotten Rid extravaganza, Hannibal! Why doesn’t Lecter chow down on a single person in this “bigger and better” sequel? Couldn’t they have found anyone more appropriate to direct the film? And why not give us a little more with these Sardinian pig guys? PLUS: Mason Verger, huge Deadhead!

Hannibal stars Anthony Hopkins, Julianne Moore, Gary Oldman, Frankie Faison, Giancarlo Giannini, Zeljko Ivan, and the late, great Ray Liotta as Paul Krendler; directed by Ridley Scott.

Thanks so much for supporting We Hate Movies on Patreon! Be sure to spread the word, your support is what keeps the lights on around here!

Royal Tenenbaums WLM and Hannibal WHM in the same week... Suck it work, I'm busy

Matthew Kennedy

I skipped school to see this movie because I was excited by the book. Saw it three times in theaters, and now I remember the audience reaction more fondly than the film. Top tier content, TY!

Geoffrey T. Blackwell

Wow. It's been a while since I laughed out loud on the bus but the Slovenian pig boy impersonations got me good.

Brian Cardin

Unexpected use of "bean dinner" in this episode. Bravo Eric

Jeremy F

I know it doesn't exist, but I vividly remember an episode you guys did on The Silence of the Lambs.

Matt

This movie turns him into Hannibal LECTURE. *taps cards on desk*

WarOfTheBees

Eric and Chris were on Blank Check talking about Manhunter, is that what you remember?

As ridiculous as Mason Verger is in the movie he is even more of a freakshow in the book. At one point he makes a kid (a black kid, of course) cry, then uses gauze to soak up his tears so he can flavor a martini with it.

Bill Baloney

i remember my parents renting this and stopping it like 30 minutes in when they realized Jodie Foster wasn't gonna be in it

Jason

I wish the Sardinian Pig Boys and their three little pigs, and duck, could make cameos on other WHM shows.

Mike Kling

I saw Hannibal and Saving Silverman on the same day.

James

May god bless your soul.

I remember seeing this in San Francisco in 2001 and falling asleep.

I love this movie whilst simultaneously acknowledging that anyone who hates it is absolutely correct.

Eren Keskin

Doesn't he do that in the tv show as well?

Eren Keskin

Scientifically speaking, the amount of energy you'd get from eating someone isn't even worth the trouble.

Darcy MacDonald

Masterful incorporation of Sublime AND 311 in the same 30 seconds

Overflight

He does that in the show as well but at least it's to a white kid. And when he's done he just yells "Have a chocolate!" Joker style and tosses him a chocolate. Michael Pitt really nailed the role. Shame he's apparently such an asshole they recast him for the following season.

WarOfTheBees

Never understood where Michael Pitt got his ego from. It isn't like he was a huge name.

Listening to this helps fill the clay-roasted-thigh-shaped hole left in my heart from the show

John King

In answer to your question about why Verger is paralyzed, the novel explicitly describes how Mason Verger became disfigured. While Verger is demonstrating auto-erotic asphyxiation, Lecter breaks his neck while he's still in the noose, paralyzing him. The movie shows this scene in a flashback with Gary Oldman.

Ajax

Medici 3 seasons on Netflix lol

DMAC

the Type O bit hahahahhahahahahah

Mike Kling

Hannibal Lector in What about Bob lol my insides hurt

Chemical Em

They gotta do scream 5 that was awful

Lynne Olson

Is there any way the Hannibal series would ever be on the table? Or if not the whole series, one part of the series? I have a love/hate relationship with that show. I'd love to hear your takes on it.

Janie B

Any episode that makes nu metal references gets an automatic 10/10

The thing with eating the brains of humans is prions
