As our story opens, the Dashwood sisters are evicted from their childhood home and sent to live on a mysterious island full of savage creatures and dark secrets. While sensible Elinor falls in love with Edward Ferrars, her romantic sister Marianne is courted by both the handsome Willoughby and the hideous man-monster Colonel Brandon. Can the Dashwood sisters triumph over meddlesome matriarchs and unscrupulous rogues to find true love? Or will they fall prey to the tentacles that are forever snapping at their heels? This masterful portrait of Regency England blends Jane Austen’s biting social commentary with ultraviolent depictions of sea monsters biting. It’s survival of the fittest—and only the swiftest swimmers will find true love! 6615075 book 15 9 2009 Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters total:274|5:44|4:86|3:79|2:47|1:18| 274 913 1572 131 2 19 false true Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 19 15:48:25 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 01 07:10:13 -0700 2009 Pride and Prejudice and Zombies...more...]]> 0 1 false true Wed Sep 23 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 23 03:34:38 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 06 14:29:35 -0700 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jZVE5uF2...
