The Movie Review

Lazy night, got nothing else to do, too tired to get too excited, in need for little adrenalin and some weirdly amusing jokes? Try Lake Placid 2.

A sequel of the previous Lake Placid (1999), it's still about the above average size (40-foot to be exact) crocodiles run amok. James Riley (John Schneider), the sheriff of a county that his son Scott calls as "the boring capital of the world" have to deal with crocs, when the local scientists Frank Mills watches his friend Tillman snatched under by a croc in the lake while they are working. He is not alone though, meet Emma Warner the biologist from Fish and Wildlife, and she serves also as the obligatory love

of James, she is also helping James to catch the croc but with humane method. The team than asks the help of Mrs. Shady Beckerman, one creepily unique old lady that knows much about the crocs, but she got something more in store for the team.

It takes 9 years before Lake Placid 2 finally hit the DVD shelves, some might think that it would be an excellent animal horror flick, but nah..it's worse. Don't even try to talk about its plot. You know that every vicious creature in the movies must eat right? Well, here the prehistoric crocs have Scott along with his new friends to be chased and munched. Hmm...if only the CGI were better. It's so fake. At least the word Placid now comes into senses.

Honestly, I like this movie, it combines humor and horror (well comedic horror) right, besides it's fun to see all the actors seem to really enjoy playing in this film. Lake Placid 2 is a movie in the brink of "So-bad-it's-good" status, it's not that bad enough to reach good status, but if the situations meet the terms I've stated above, I find this movie quite amusing in its own way.
