They come from prehistory to stalk and kill.... It begins, as terror so often does, with a disappearance-two men lost in the foothills of the Santa Ynez mountains, a pair of backpacks the only evidence that they'd been near the mysterious sinkhole. An ancient fissure has been jolted in the hills; the eternal geologic movements of the earth oblivious to the teeming metropolis of Los Angeles sprawled out below them.Something is descending, stalking at night, moving ever closer to civilization. The official response to death is more destruction-Sheriff Malcolm Gearhart wants to destroy the creatures before anyone is even sure what they are, to annihilate any beast that would dare to attack man.But anthropologist Jim Grand and local newspaperwoman Hannah Hughes see another way-a dangerous path, but one that might save the last link to a prehistoric time.And as the humans battle to steer the right course, the cats are getting closer......Look for the big screen version of FATALIS from Universal Pictures
