Based on the best-selling novel from Michael Crichton, THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN, a four-hour original A&E television event, stars Benjamin Bratt, Eric McCormack, Ricky Schroder, Andre Braugher, Christa Miller, Daniel Dae Kim and Viola Davis.

In THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN, a U.S. military satellite crashes in a small town and unleashes a deadly plague killing all but two survivors. As the military quarantines the area, a team of highly specialized scientists is assembled to find a cure to the pathogen code-named “Andromeda,” and a reporter investigates a government conspiracy only to discover what he is chasing wants him silenced.

    Didn't they allready make this film. It was called "OutBreak".
    Or 24, Season 5?


    Couldn't give a crap......
  • Jason Reneau
    Only read one Crichton book and it was Jurassic park
  • D-Rock
    I feel like if you've read a Michael Crichton book, there's a good chance it's Jurassic Park. And yup, that's the only one I've read, so I guess it's my favorite.
  • Well I read more than one! Guess I'm alone. I read all the Jurassic Parks, Andromeda Strain, Congo, and Sphere. Either Jurassic Park or Andromeda is my favorite. The Lost World was disappointing.
  • Chris Fernandez
    Jurassic Park was the BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!! The book was way scarier and awesome.
  • Jeffrey
    This is an unpopular opinion due to the book's ending (and, worse, the film adaptation), but I have to say "Sphere". Call me a sucker for existentialist science fiction. The autobiographical "Travels" is surprisingly interesting, as well.
  • Ken Robinson
    Jurassic Park is my favorite Crichton book
  • mike kittle
    No doubt, it has to Jurassic Park!
  • Linda V.
    My favorite is Jurassic Park.
  • Larkin
    "sphere" was a novel that could have been a great movie. "jurassic park" was another. the soundtrack album for the original movie version of "andromeda strain" was in same the polygonal shape as the film virus and the album sleeve opened like a camera iris.
