A giant crocodile is eatin', growin', and chillin' in a lake up in rural Maine. It's up to Bill Pullman and Bridget Fonda to destroy it's happy life.
This movie is kind of a horror/comedy hybrid. Neither is done well. At least it was only 1 hour and 15 minutes long. It was surprising to see Brendan Gleeson play a small town sheriff. He's been in excellent movies since this and I consider him a great actor. He puled off a good American accent. The movie sports a mere 2 kills (wtf is that shit about?!?), and they don't even kill the goddamn croc in the end. Skip this movie and watch Rogue instead.

This movie is so fucking bad it requires imaginary numbers to fully describe its suck.
"There is at least as much need to curb the cruel greed and arrogance of part of the world of capital, to curb the cruel greed and violence of part of the world of labor, as to check a cruel and unhealthy militarism in international relationships." -Theodore Roosevelt

I actually enjoyed this one, at least 10 years or so ago when I rented it. Solid campy!
