Crocodylus: Mating Season

Crocodylus Mating Season was an entertaining and quite surprising roller coaster. Watching this, I expected a straightforward, monstrous movie, yet it is far from that c. Right from the opening credits, the audience is given a clue that the movie is intentionally cult and belongs to the B movie category. There is a fault with the plot that could be seen as ridiculous because it is a dumb movie, but in the best way possible. Despite the characterization of all the protagonists as weird, they seem simple but are engaging enough to hold my attention. The main hero, Harry Bates, is an amateur, clumsy private eye, always making cheesy jokes, which made me chuckle in many scenes, even when the most terrible things happen. The dialogue is intentionally cheesy, and for the most part, the actors seem to know that they are in a cheesy B film, which makes the movie more enjoyable. One of the fun aspects of the film is the apparent minimalism of the special effects. The low-budget CGI and practical effects are hilariously bad, but it is part of the charm. One would tell by the filmmakers' eagerness to make the movie cheesy and horrible in a horror genre that it fits perfectly. That Crocodylus creature on its own is unadulterated silliness, but watching it perform is worth the watch.

However, there may be specific problems with pacing or the occasional dodge in acting, but this is only suitable for a comedy. It knows it is not a cinematic masterpiece, has fun breaking the fourth wall, and offers just what you would expect from a cheesy B-movie horror flick that is perfect for late-night showings. If you love B-movies with humor, ridiculous situations, and a bit of gore, Crocodylus: Mating Season, despite its stereotyping and crude humor style, is worth a watch.

Needless to say that I had never actually heard about this 2023 horror comedy titled "Crocodylus: Mating Season" prior to stumbling upon it by random chance here in 2024. However, I have to say that the movie's cover was actually interesting enough, plus it being a horror comedy that I hadn't already seen, then of course I opted to sit down and watch what writer and director Stanley Pomianowski had to offer.

I can't claim that I was impressed with what writer and director Stanley Pomianowski delivered, much less were I actually entertained throughout the course of the movie. And it was quite a struggle to sit through 85 minutes that the movie ran for. But I endured, hoping the movie would pick up and become better as it crept along. That just didn't happen.

Of course I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list in "Crocodylus: Mating Season". But I will say that the acting performances were actually good, despite the level of rubbish that the movie turned out to be.

The special effects in "Crocodylus: Mating Season" were exactly that; special. Especially the insanely fake toy cat at the kitchen table with the bottle. Not to mention the crocodylus itself, which was nothing more than a man in an ultra fake creature suit.

This movie was bad, so very, very bad. But it wasn't bad enough to actually be a fun movie to sit through.

The movie's cover was actually the best thing about the entire ordeal.

My rating of the dumpster fire that is "Crocodylus: Mating Season" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

An interesting dive into the comedy creature feature genre. Mating Season is a movie that effortlessly mutates into something like "The fly " meets "Airplane " . I really enjoyed it , possibly more so as the movie went on. Apparently even lower budget B movies can deliver hilariously driven character roles, subtle plot twists and turns that ultimately deliver a wonderful feeling of satisfaction for the viewer. It's a courageous little gem that even in its unashamedly cheesy moments wins the audience over without offering any apologies. Well worth watching for those of us who still enjoy a good old , Creature romping stomping comedy that we all willingly buy into. Bravo for this comedic breath of fresh air !!

It is not a real movie unless u consider the under five bucks budget movies.

No graphics nothing just someone wearing a funny green suit A3 stars cuz it made me laugh a bit and actually I watched it till the end.

And that was quite funny never thought I willwatc it to the end specially cuz the beginning of the movie is showing you what is coming but out of nowhere you find urself want to know the end don't know why maybe cuz the girls super hot , she really is So if u are looking for no budget movies or wanna waste some time scrolling meaningless reels or something u create at home that's what you are looking for for.

Writer, director and editor, Stanley Pomianowski, actually managed to pull it off. No innuendo intended there. This isn't a silly B grade movie, it is a B grade movie, but most of it actually worked. Some additional pace direction could have bumped this movie out of the B grade group.

Jim Serrano (Dr Williams) playing the crazed "doc" was well done albeit with a couple of misses. Chuck Fusca (Harry Bates) had a few laughs and his client, Allie Glades (Rachel Comeau), provided the buddy laughs with him. Andy Gion (Police Chief Rex) played his part, hands-down.

After some of the other B-Grade movies that I've recently seen, this one is one of the better ones. I was entertained and look forward to the sequel. I would recommend this.
