No animals were harmed in the making of this movie. 70 members of the cast and crew were.
An unprecedented—and wholly unpredictable—action-adventure, ROAR follows wildlife preservationist Hank (THE EXORCIST producer Noel Marshall in his sole and career-derailing turn as an actor and director), who lives harmoniously alongside a menagerie of over 100 untamed animals, including cheetahs, elephants, lions and tigers on a preservation in the African plains. When his wife and children arrive (real-life wife Tippi Hedren and step-daughter Melanie Griffith) for a visit, a long-brewing battle for dominance between the lions erupts and threatens their very lives.
"It's like Walt Disney went insane and shot a snuff version of SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON." — HitFix
"As a portrait of recklessness and beastly terror, it's CITIZEN KANE." — Esquire
"Like watching a live-action LION KING as Mufasa holds a switchblade to your throat." — Complex
