Movie: Lake Placid (1999)

IMDB Link: HERE
Personal rating: 6.5

This horror flick isn't as bad as I thought it'd be. I remember getting a version dubbed in Hungarian in about 2002, but never watched it. Tonight I felt kind of bored and decided to give a horror movie that doesn't involve too much philosophy a shot. It was worth my while.

Scary moments:

-about 4 or 5.

WTF moments:

-The croc attacking the bear.
-The second crocodile's appearance.

10 things I've learned from this movie:

1)Bears make weird sounds when chewed on by crocs.
2)Cows can be blindfolded and fed to the crocs.
3)Husbands can 'accidentally' be fed to the crocs as well.
4)Crocs do not eat heads.
5)Crocs tip over boats for no particular reason.
6)When you decide to take a walk in the forest, do not step on larger branches.
7)Helicopters have large amounts of fuel.
9)You can live on a farm and have a 30-foot pet crocodile.
10)When you find a huge tooth in a lake, the creature it belongs to can no way in hell be a crocodile!

5 thumbs-up:

1)The attempt of mixing the horror and comedy into something watchable.
2)Some of the dialogue is hilarious!
3)Oliver Platt and Brendan Gleeson's acting. Bill Pullman's acting is also nice.
4)Clear and to-the-point movie. Could have been longer, though...
5)'Law enforcement is very dangerous work, isn't it? And you have such big wonderful boobs! =)))

5 thumbs-down:

1)The uselessness of the dramatic music when Cyr flies in.
2)The old lady had the most swear-worded lines in the movie.
3)Bridget Fonda's constant nagging. Plus she falls off the boat two times and gets tripped by the croc's tail... for a main character she sure is clumsy as hell.
4)Some lines are thrown in there in order for something just to happen.
5)Sometimes people can't make up their minds whether to film in 16:9 or larger...
