Lake Placid / Club Dread - Uncut DVD

Advantages: Funny, bloody, one for the boys
Disadvantages: One for the boys!

...of bikinis, fairly funny. The DVD contains no less than 22 deleted scenes and an extra feature about Alien vs Predator so is perhaps worth the money. I paid £6. The film's redeeming feature I think would be that it does take the mickey out of itself and the end is probably the best part. if you like it a bit bonkers..in every sense... you'll like this film! If your expecting a proper glamourous American youth slasher movie, you may be disappointed.... Read review

Advantages: Great film very funny and gruesome
Disadvantages: Nothing

...This film is a one to watch if you are into horror, comedy and gruesome findings! Because 'Lake Placid' is a mixture of all these 3. The film is about a lake obviously named 'Lake Placid' and in this lake some kind of large distructive animal lives and eats humans that boat on the lake. At first it is thought to be some kind of bear but they are found wrong and the animal is a huge deadly crocidile! The story goes on showing you what these people do to catch the croc, but things turn out out a little harder than expected. 'Lake Placid' is kind of like 'Deep Blue Sea' very gruesome so if you are squirmish then I definitely recommend you NOT to watch this film. The film is VERY funny at times as well, the storyline is amazing and I am yet to find out if it is a true story or not because I heard a rumour that it was, I really don't think... Read review

Advantages: Good cast and funny in some places
Disadvantages: Not as entertaining as Deep Blue Sea and not enough of the Croc

...Lake Placid is a good film. It is funny, well scripted and has an excellent cast. It is also a very short film, 79 minutes!!!! I am currently having a debate on which is better, Lake Placid or Deep Blue Sea. After much thought I still don't know. If I had the choice to watch either of those films again I would chose Deep Blue Sea. Simply because it has a bigger budget better CGI and is more entertaining. In Lake Placid we hardly ever see the Croc. Which is a shame because it is the star of the film. It tries to be Jaws with a comedy twist but doesn't quite pull it off. But its still worth watching.... Read review
