If you’re into this kinda thing then I’d say check it out when it hits DVD and Digital HD on August 4th. It’s directed about as well as any other one of these movies. The dialogue was legitimately pretty funny and the death scenes were fun. For what it’s worth, the acting is above par, it’s fast paced, and a lot of the writing is actually pretty clever. This was never meant to be the next big horror classic, it’s just a fun cheesy way to kill an hour and a half.
#Lake placid vs anaconda movie
It’s a low budget Syfy Channel Original with very little plot and terrible special effects, so if I sound overly positive about this movie it’s just because I understand what they’re going for. I said at the beginning of the review that you probably already know if you’re interested and I stand by that. Look, Lake Placid vs Anaconda isn’t a movie for everyone. If this were theatrical it would have been Rated R without any trouble. This movie isn’t really pushing the ratings boundaries at all though.
There’s a fair amount of naked breasts and at times the movie starts to feel a bit on the sleazy side because of it (in a good way). Once you select Rent you'll have 14 days to start watching the movie and 48 hours to finish it. There’s maybe one crocodile autopsy that I could see not making its way onto television screens, but for the most part it looks like the nudity is the big difference with this version. The death scenes are gory, but not excessive. I didn’t get a chance to check out the movie when it hit the Syfy Channel in April, but it’s pretty easy to see what was cut. The version of Lake Placid vs Anaconda that I watched is the unrated cut, which is debuting on DVD and Digital HD on August 4th.
Still, even some of the hokier moments from minor characters are acceptable in this type of film. These actors are probably better than the movie really needs them to be, but the side characters and extra sorority sisters aren’t quite as good. Aside from them, we have a group of sorority sisters in the midst of a lakeside getaway and one resident Wildlife Protective Services Officer whose journey to find his daughter serves as the heart of the film. After his apparent death in Lake Placid: The Final Chapter he’s missing a few pieces, but still much better off than you would expect after coming face to jaw with a pretty big crocodile. Once you select Rent youll have 14 days to start watching the movie and 48 hours to finish it. Yancy Butler returns as Reba, the town’s sheriff and resident ass kicker and Robert Englund makes a surprise comeback as Jim Beckerman. We have two returning characters from the previous Lake Placid entry and they’re some of the high points.
#Lake placid vs anaconda plus
On the plus side, the core cast members of Lake Placid vs Anaconda all do a really great job.
#Lake placid vs anaconda skin
That smooth skin must be a lot faster to accomplish than the detailed scales that cover snakes or especially crocodiles. It does make me wonder if sharks are so popular because they’re easier to animate. Hell, other Syfy Channel Originals in the past few years have had better looking creatures than the ones that are present here. I wasn’t expecting quality on the level of Industrial Light and Magic, but the snakes looked better in the first Anaconda, and that was almost twenty years ago.
Sensational addition to the hit franchises that decided to bring the two story lines and the monsters of the animal kingdom together.As far as the beasts themselves, they’re all done in CGI as you’d expect, but I have to say that this is one of the worst things in the movie. This is a truly engaging creature feature with great special effects in the uncut version. And it fact, the movie not only did NOT was even better than we hoped it woul d be. Crystal Allen kicks &*%^ and really enjoy her, too.īut bought this DVD which brought the REAL "stars" of these franchises together.the giant Anacondas and the larger-than-life killer Crocodiles.because we felt like it couldn't be a disappointment. LOVE Jon Voight as the villain in the original Anaconda. Who doesn't love John Schneider, Betty White, Cloris Leachman, Robert England, and Yancy Butler? Anaconda (and its sequels) deserve some praise, also. Anaconda (2015) In Black Lake, Maine, an accident allows the two giant species, crocodiles and anacondas to be regenerated and escape towards to Clear Lake. Lake Placid is our favorite of the two, but only because of the amazing star power that made the original film a classic and the subsequent sequels as well. We are big fans of the Lake Placid horror franchise, and also the Anaconda franchise. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE GIANT CROC FROM LAKE PLACID MEETS ANACONDA? A GOOD TIME WATCHING THE FIGHT!!
