jlthornb51 Director Don Michael Paul and screenwriter David Reed really do justice to this thrilling franchise with an outstanding production featuring a very strong cast. Elizabeth Rohm gives one of her best performances yet as the sheriff and mother bent on protecting the children and destroying the monstrous crocodiles that threaten their existence. Outstanding support is furnished by Robert Englund with Yancy Butler providing much needed comedy relief. This is a very dark and horrific film featuring some shocking sequences that may haunt audience members for the rest of their lives. One scene with an innocent young girl snared in a trap and hanging from her ankles while being savaged by alligators is deeply disturbing. That is only one of several terrifying incidents depicted in graphic detail and without mercy. However, the blooding is in no way gratuitous and serves the purpose of motivating Rohm and Butler to take enormous risks to complete their mission. Excellent cinematography and startling special effects help immensely to make this one of the years most truly frightening films. It is, in the end, Rohm's power house performance that will really engage the viewer and capture their unwavering attention. The fear, rage, and emotional turmoil of her character is all too real and Rohm has never been better in any role. It is tremendous work and should have garnered her an Emmy nomination at least.

Honest John Its the final chapter in one of the best series going! Good ol poacher turned sheriff Mr Giove is back, this time hes the law! But there's some crocodiles who are out to prove him wrong, and when some hapless students wander to the lake turned crocodile sanctum uh oh there in for trouble with a capital T Some of director Stanley Rodriguez finest work with special effects second to some and well you can just see where most of this bumper budget went, but its surprising to get such an all star cast and these quality of special effects. The factual data behind this documentary is unreal and you don't usually get this kind of gore and detail in a true story, it boggles the mind. The finest film that holly-woods golden couple Dame Judy Dench and Robert Deniero have both appeared in. Unfortunately all of the nudity in this film is censored apart from the male genitalia if I rented this then I would take it back and hurl abuse and feces at the employee

shridhar-spitfire I watched this movie just a half hour back on TV, which is what medium the movie was made for. And it is worth just that. First off, definitely better than Lake Placid 3, and a lot more fun. Many hotter chicks in this one and Reba is definitely bearable in this one compared to 3. The discontinuity in the movie is mind-boggling. The corny dialogues and predictable plot makes it boring towards the end, but I watched the movie just for the hot (and boring) Poppy Lee Friar, who plays Chloe in the film. I could envision this film being remade in Bollywood, which goes to show how crappy this movie is. The cast in IMDb should be increased to include the hot chick at the end because I was definitely interested in her. A lot of times throughout the movie, they've shrouded the sets with what appears to be fog (pretty sure it's dry ice) which gives the movie a depressing feel. The crocodiles throughout the movie are a bag of fun, with the horrible CGI making it an enjoyable experience for me. I enjoy such crappy movies if it has hot actresses, and I definitely enjoyed this one.

jnor At the end of the third film we are left to assume the feisty "cougar" Reba is dead- This is not the case. The fourth film opens with her having survived the attack and now working with the local authorities to contain the vicious reptiles. Enter the new sheriff of the city, her daughter and a ruthless, out for himself poacher played by Robert Englund of Freddy Krueger fame.This film is better than the standard SyFy fare, and as for the franchise better than parts 2 and 3. Yancy Butler is once again an entertaining and ass kicking force. If you suffered through the last 2 sequels then give this one a chance because as far as entertainment value goes it's way beyond the previous offerings (except of course the first.)
