IMDb 5.8 Metacritic 34 RT 47%

Lake Placid is a gloriously bonkers creature feature that knows exactly what it is—campy fun with a giant crocodile, quirky characters, and enough absurdity to keep you entertained. If you want something that doesn't take itself seriously and blends horror-comedy thrills with genuine laughs, absolutely watch it tonight.

Plot

When a man is eaten alive by an unknown creature, the local Game Warden teams up with a paleontologist from New York to find the beast. Add to the mix an eccentric philanthropist with a penchant for "Crocs", and here we go! This quiet, remote lake is suddenly the focus of an intense search for a crocodile with a taste for live animals...and people!
