A 54 year-old Phoenix woman, who has been paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair for the last 25 years, suddenly regained the use of her legs and walked out of Universal's flop "Battleship".
Upon hearing the news of Richards' miraculous recovery, faith healer Benny Hinn, well known for his "Miracle Crusades", Immediately announced he was abandoning prayer in favour of screening "Battleship" for his millions of disciples who can no longer walk.
Marlene Richards, who was paralyzed after a car crash 25 years ago, went to see director Peter Berg's $200 million naval recruitment film, also known as "Battleship" after confusing it for what she thought was the latest instalment of Michael Bay's "Transformers" franchise.
"I kept waiting for Shia Labeouf and Bumblebee, but the only thing I saw was the guy from 'John Carter'," Richards told Hollywood and Swine. "That's when I knew something was wrong."
Richards tried to leave the theater, but her motorized wheelchair malfunctioned, leaving her stranded and forced to watch singer-turned-actress Rihanna attempt to act. That's when she felt sensation in her legs for the first time in over two decades. Moments later, she stood up and walked out of the theater.
"It was truly a miracle," Richards said. "Otherwise I would've had to sit through another hour of that movie".
