Lake Placid: Legacy

Rubbish movie and it's ain't the mistake of producer it's mine that I dared to watch it; what a wastage of time and money!

South Africa stands in for the USA and a cast of mainly Canadian and European actors play American characters, in some cases not very convincingly. Pointless and very poor sequel in the Lake Placid franchise this entry can only be recommended as a time filler to viewers who can tolerate bad movies. Worst thing about this is the abysmal "special" effects. Whether it is the creature, a swarm of bats or explosions the CGI suck big time. Predictable too.

6yrs after the creators lied to us and gave us Lake Placid: The Final Chapter we have yet another straight to television Lake Placid movie and it's unsurprisingly terrible.

Yet again people are on the run from an oversized crocodile in a movie with a wafer thin plot and a forgettable cast.

I mean seriously why? Why does this exist? Why do they keep pounding out these dreadful movies? I mean Legacy of all words to choose! Is this the Legacy that the franchise is going to get? Awful movies that you'll see repeated weekly on the Scyfy channel?

Skin this croc once and for all and let the franchise die, it hasn't been good since *Thinks* the very first film for crying out loud!

Poor movie just like the last bunch.

The Good:

Nothing comes to mind

The Bad:

Unshockingly poor cgi

Whole thing is just so very basic

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Horror movie 101 is don't go down the stairs

Joe Pantoliano must have owed someone a favour

This is 2018 and the original Jurassic Park (1993) looks far more real than this The animal is 100% computer generated, most probably on a ZX Spectrum.

Absolutely terrible acting, terrible plot, terrible waste of my time..

Screaming, yelling, hollering, arguing, nonstop for 90 minutes. Surprisingly good acting. A talented group of actors wasted in this drivel. They just happened (on a day trip) to all bring waterproof flashlights with powerful lights that never dim or run out of power. The usual preposterous scenes. If you like loud, irritating screaming non stop front to end, this is for you.
