What's your favorite croc flick?


I think the best of the croc movies is Tobe Hooper's CROCODILE. It was better than LAKE PLACID and the horrid BLOOD SURF. It also funny and sad all the same, and it was as scary as he11!

So, what's your fav?

During the first 20 minutes of the movie, Crocodile is incredible. The beast is cruel, fast, mean and bloody enough to entertain a lot. Then, it becomes strange... Strange because of some ideas I still do not get (the crocodile "jumps" over the boat at the end of the movie) , strange because of the special FX which are not always so good and finally strange because the beginning is so good that I wonder how Tobe Hooper managed to ruin the end this way !

Anyway, I liked it a lot, specially cos of the death but I must confest I still prefer Lake Placid which was, for me, way more spectacular. I do agre about Blood Surf. That is a pure watse.

I think the ultimate crocodile movie should be made by both Steve Miner and Tobe Hooper. This could rock !

I was willing to give this movie a 1 out of 10 rating until I saw that scene.

if you are serious than you are probably are very easily entertained, the movie was hilarious, like when the crocodile used his nose as a battering ram to attack a house boat, or when he breaks through a store to eat a girl, but other than that it was quite possibly the worst movie ever.

Well my fav croc film used to be Lake Placid 2. But now it is Crocodile 2 because of the hottest female in history: Heidi Lenhart.

This is actually by far the worst killer crocodile film ever made. It's a pile of reeking excrement nearly unparalleled in the annals of film.

If you want to watch a film about a killer crocodile that's not brain-numbingly stupid try Rogue.

Well I haven’t seen them all but Rogue is pretty damn good.

I'm a sucker for B-grade animal horror flicks no matter wether they are built to create either suspense or play it out for cheap laughs. Rogue is in the first category and easily the best out there.

Rogue 6/10

Lake Placid vs. Anaconda 5/10
