A failed hijack attempt by a group of armed criminals goes horribly wrong, causing the plane to crash into a crocodile infested South American swamp. A small handful of crew and passengers crawl from the wreckage, but are horrified to discover that several of the hijackers have also survived the disaster. Forced at gunpoint to carry the bad guys' luggage (which is stuffed full of stolen cash), the group trudge through the murky waters, all the while stalked by a huge hungry reptile. Meanwhile, Zach (Chuck Walczak), boyfriend of pretty stewardess survivor Mia (Heidi Lenhart), hires local tracker Roland (Martin Kove) to help him find his woman.After the massive disappointment that was Tobe Hooper's Crocodile, I really wasn't expecting much (if anything) from a sequel, especially after reading some of the disparaging comments here on IMDb; but knock me down with a rubber reptile and call me Steve Irwin if Death Roll didn't prove to be the most fun I've had with a low-budget B-movie creature feature in a long while.Despite nearly all of the accusations fired at this film by its naysayers being absolutely true (the story IS highly derivative, the characters ARE extremely clichéd, and the killer croc itself IS a marvel of VERY manky CGI and pathetic model-making), I just couldn't help but have a total blast.What makes Crocodile 2 so surprisingly watchable is that even though director Gary Jones knows damn well that he's working on another predictable, cheesy and formulaic film destined for the bottom shelf at Blockbusters, he still gives it everything he has (Hooper's film, on the other hand, felt like the director was just going through the motions).Jones's enthusiastic and unpretentious approach is mirrored by his cast, who play their preposterous one-dimensional roles to the hilt, and the result is a silly, funny (perhaps unintentionally, perhaps knowingly), scary, and ultimately hugely enjoyable monster movie that offers impeccably timed jump scares, several gory deaths, a cartoonish and impossibly evil head villain (whose vocabulary is littered with unimaginative expletives), a David Hess-alike creepy henchman, a truly awful exploding helicopter model, a denouement that was telegraphed from the very beginning, and the obligatory daft pre-credits 'shock' sequence that finally allows us blokes a better look at the very sexy Lenhart (dont get too excited, though: she's only in a bikini!).It might seem like a ridiculously high rating for such a corny film, but I give Crocodile 2: Death Roll a whopping 8/10.
Crocodile 2 Death Swamp is a really good movie. This movie is fun to watch and it got a lot of action in it to.This is the sequel to Tobe Hoopers Crocodile.Warning the first Crocodile is not so good.Crocodile 2 Death Swamp is not scary but it's a really cool movie with a lot of action. The movie is 90 minutes. The Directors name is Gary Jones (Musquito,Spiders,Raptor Planet). If you want to see other good Croc/Alligator movies i recommend. Lake Placid , Chorake (Crocodile1981),Dark Age, Alligator, Alligator2 , The Big Alligator River, Blood Surf(Krocodylus), Crocodile Fury , Brutal River. Have a nice day.
Right, the plot is as follows: a plane crashes in a swamp after some weird bank robbers kill the pilot to save their loot. A pathetic bunch of survivors then tramps around the swamp with a ludicrously fake-looking croc in pursuit. O-k what's the big deal? The film certainly does not answer the description I had from the video club: "I warn you kid, this film is traumatizing", traumatizingly bad more like it. The acting was awful and the croc looked VERY fake, even faker than in the first Crocodile. But in some bits they used an animatronic crocodile and it looked pretty impressive. As for the characters, I was quite glad when the croc started to use them as chew toys, they were sickeningly pathetic. Well, in all, I say DO NOT watch this movie. If you are looking for real entertainment rent another one.
Okay, The idea is to count how many times the lead bad guy says "motherf***er". I'm telling you, it can't be done. It's the only swear word he knows. Script writing is a class act.I always enjoy the sort of movies where the creature appears to be some form of sub-plot in the movie, you know, gang raid a bank, try to escape to Mexico, plane crashes etc, then in the last twenty minutes a crocodile arrives! What's that all about? Still For other movies where the creatures are side plots, or just barely exist, see Shark Attack and Spiders 2.Well worth a watch if you are into trashy bad movies. It's just a bit too good to be rated in the bottom 100. The acting is only below average, the SFX almost look acceptable, and there is obviously a fair budget put behind this movie.
