Fun and Gore
Added 10/23/2009
The picture should not have been as entertaining as it is. It has all the makings of another trivial monster from the lagoon film but saves itself with sufficient fun to make it worth watching.....if you have nothing better to do. Another element to its credit is the sketch of a romantic comedy which sort of weaves through the film, not taking the spotlight but adding a note of gaiety. Bridget Fonda and Bill Pullman handle that part of it about as well as its throwaway role in the picture allows. The other players do a good job with the stereotypes they are playing and the creators of the monster are to be congratulated for the credible threat and camera-suitable appearance of their invention. Betty White is a happy addition to the cast in a small role.
All in all, not a film to search out and pay much for; but one that can be enjoyable when you are in the mood for it.

A humorous monster movie
Added 6/15/2009
I got the feeling this was a made for Bridget Fonda movie.
A giant crocodile takes up eating the wrong food... people
when a fish and game beaver bander is killed.
Fonda plays a paleontologist sent to identify a tooth taken from the body.
An unlikely reason for her to be camping on the lakeside with the local sheriff, an handsome fish and game fellow and
a crocodile hunter. From there is goes downward with a cursing
Betty White as a local resident whose "pet" the croc is.
The result is besides the gore of people getting their heads eaten
kind of funny, but no really good laughs.

Lake Placid Movie
Added 6/13/2009
Kind of a funky movie but as the cover says parts are scary and others are pretty funny. A fun movie to watch every once in a while. Betty White is a riot in this.
