My main man Hellbilly already did a great poll on the best croc/gator flick here. But in light of the glut of gator flicks this year, I'll update the list and give it a little spin. Which of all these movies with our scaly green dinosaurs do you like least?
I used to say there was no such thing as a bad croc movie, but these three proved me wrong: 1. Eaten Alive - Like Tobe Hooper just came into my house and threw up all over my living room 2. Rogue - Tense and exciting? Hell no. :sleepy: 3. Primeval - Not truly awful, just not that entertaining and needed more BITE
I haven't seen some of the DTV ones, but I really disliked Alligator II: The Mutation. It gets my vote.
I voted Black Water...I was pretty much bored to tears with it, and it was extremely formulaic (in the trees, no attack; in the water, attack!). The ending nullified the realistic tone they were attempting with the rest of the film too. I mean, if you're going for realism so hard that it becomes a bore, at least keep it through the whole film. At least I had SOME fun with Primeval and Rogue (until the last 30 minutes...way to fuck up!)
I liked most of the ones I have seen. I voted fro Blood Surf, which pretty much sucked. I have never seen DinoCroc, SuperCroc, or Lake Placid 2.
It's amazing I'll even try any new croc/gator flick after sitting through Supercroc, but I do. Black Water and Rogue were both worth watching but didn't end up on the favorites list. I'll keep trying as I love the gerne, even if it's mostly mis-fires and nothing will ever be as good as the first Alligator flick. Supercroc gets my vote for worst, I haven't seen Dinocroc, Blood Surf or Dark Age though. I won't ever see Dinocroc as I swore off Asyulm after Supercroc, not only the worst killer croc flick I've seen this century, but probably the worst overall flick period.
Yea both are really bad - I gave Supercroc the nudge for worst- Ive never seen the Big Alligator River, Dark Age or Blood Surf though.
Blood Surf is horrendous ! In some scenes the crocodile is gigantic, and in others it just looks like a regular sized croc. Awful, terrible movie. One of the worst I've ever seen.
Considering the majority of these movies, asking "is there any decent killer crocogator film other than 'Alligator I'?" might be more fitting (although I suppose "Lake Placid" would get some votes then).
