Wait, you think it is stretching the boundaries of believability to suppose that a bunch of 19th century African yokels would believe a couple of bloodthirsty lions are evil spirits? That's what you take issue with? Its not like Kilmer or Douglas's character bought that- and if Kilmer's did at all it would be at the very end after being driven to the brink by the events of the film.

Yeah, that's what I said. Right. There wasn't a narrative to this movie at all that amounted to making it a high production value monster movie. That African main character was totally depicted as just an ignorant yokel. You really nailed that one. His point of view totally was not meant to contribute to the narrative of the story.
