THE PLOT:

After drunken hunters destroy the nest of a legendary Crocodile named Flatdog, the only surviving egg is picked up by a teenager, now her party is being stalked by Flatdog who out to kill them one by one until she gets what she wants, her egg back.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

Now I've seen better movies about killer crocs, "LAKE PLACID" and I've seen much worse killer croc movies "BLOOD SURF". This is somewhere in the middle between those two extremes. The characters work, the story works, the legend of Flatdog works. The CG matting could have been better in some places, so I'm thinking 8 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree and don't agree at the same time. I agree with the part when he said it's not as good as "LAKE PLACID" and much better then "BLOOD SURF". But matting is important to me and the matting issue makes for me a slightly lower grade, 7 STARS

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ STORY (The story works.)
+ LEGEND (The legend of Flatdog works.)
+ CHARACTERS (Basic, but workable.)
+ CROC (For the most part, cool.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- MATTING ISSUES (For those of you not familiar with matting, it's blending the effect with the scene and they didn't quite do that perfectly in some scenes.)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you aren't big on Killer Croc movies, this isn't for you.)
