Based on the children's fantasy novel by British author Dick King-Smith. "The Water Horse" tells the story of a lonely boy in Scotland who finds a mysterious egg from which hatches a "water horse" -- a mythical sea monster of Scottish legend. The Academy Award®-winning producer and special-effects team behind "The Lord of the Rings" join with Revolution Studios, Walden Media ("The Chronicles of Narnia") and Beacon Pictures to bring to the screen the magical motion picture "The Water Horse." Rooted in one of the most enduring and intriguing legends of our time, the story begins with an enchanted egg... and what hatches will set in motion an adventure that will take a young boy on the unforgettable journey of a lifetime.
