THE PLOT:

It starts out with a little girl getting a baby Alligator for a pet from a gator farm and her Father in what I assume was a drunken rage (they never really said) flushed the baby gator down the toilet.

Hench the premise of the legend of alligators in the sewer. But this gator finds a food source in the dead test subject in a growth hormone experiment. The gator is now a very growing boy and thanks to the chemical is always hungry. One cop is the only one who knows the monster is lurking right under our very feet and must find a way to stop the very heavily armored reptile.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

We all knew about the legend of Alligators in the sewer, but a giant alligator in the sewer is such a cool concept, worthy of the Japanese movie. Even though the using a normal size alligator on a miniature set isn't new, the model work is so well made it makes up for that minor flaw. The cast does a great job and the concept works. All and all, a true classic and a buried treasure. 9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree with Zedd, there are some amazing model work and it's all not just normal gator on miniature set, there is some pretty cool animatronic effects as well. In the wedding rampaging scene and when the great white hunter becomes a midnight snack. 9 STARS as well.

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ EFFECTS (Basic but it works.)
+ STORY (The story works.)
+ CAST (The cast does a great job.)
+ NEW TWIST (On the legend of alligators in the sewer.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- CHARACTER ISSUES (The great white hunter was an arrogant jerk and the chef was a bit of jerk as well.)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you aren't fan of the monster movie.)
