Culture Shock: Roar

18*

Big cats. 70 injured cast and crew members. The most dangerous film ever made.

A naturalist living with big cats in East Africa expects a visit by his family of four from Chicago, but when a mix-up leaves him miles from home, his newly arrived wife and kids are left in the clutches of wild lions and tigers.

On the surface, Roar looks like a textbook 70s adventure film akin to Disney’s live action output of the era, but the very real danger that is present on screen throughout sets it apart and cements its place in the annals of cult film history.
