Two prisoners escape through the swamp land in Everglades and the search party is attacked by a giant mutant eel and is considered missing. The Animal Control agent Delmar Coates (Doug Swander) is searching a missing dog with his ex-wife Sheriff Ruth Gainey-Coates (Kathleen LaGue) and he discovers the remains of the animal. Meanwhile members of a canoe club organize an expedition through the swamp.When Sheriff Ruth organizes a manhunt to capture the criminals, Delmar informs that his former friend, Dr. Soren Abramson (Simon Page), who is chasing the eel with a group of college students, is the responsible for mutant species. Sheriff Ruth organizes two teams to hunt the prisoners and the eel. "Razortooth" is a laughable B-movie, with a stupid screenplay full of holes. For example, a team of skilled police officers vanishes in the swamp and a group of rednecks are responsible for the search party. The experienced Delmar Coates hunts a dangerous mutant eel with a group of amateurs equipped with one crossbow to kill the giant creature. But the best is Delmar Coates wrestling with the agile and strong creature in the lake. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "A Face do Predador" ("The Face of the Predator")
**********************SOME SPOILERS MAY BE SEEN************************* Just another stupid, unrealistic Sci-Fi. Seriously, this movie was so unbelievably stupid, predictable, and ameteur that it isn't funny. First and foremost, there was absolutely no character development on any one except the main character (which, of course, happen's in every movie), making it so every single person who died you didn't even care about. Second, the acting and effects were utterly lazy and mediocre that I couldn't wait for the movie to just be done with! The entire movie (without exaggeration) is just characters getting either bitten in half or ripped apart. There is absolutely nothing unique because it is just the same plot of every other Sci-Fi with a different animal and setting. It didn't have on bit of humor whatsoever! It's Lake Placid 3 all over again; and if you've seen it, you know how horrible that was! There is literally nothing exciting that will come out of this movie, so please, just don't waste your time. I'm pretty sure any other movie would be a better pick than this movie.
It's a giant altered eel killing people. If you got some friends or want to have a laugh, it's an okay movie. The eel itself and it's special effects are alright, but people in this movie are too stupid to seem real. Hardly anyone even tried to shoot the eel. One guy just keeps running with his mug with has some drink in it.(Guess it tastes good enough to die for) Some characters such as two convicts at the start of the movie play a role in the story, but the convicts themselves do nothing, but get eaten.After The scientist who created the giant eel tells them how to kill it, they do just what he says. Guess what? It doesn't work. After they try that, the main character starts to wrestle with it. Yes, a man wrestles a giant eel that eats people and we are told it has enhanced muscle from the alteration. It's okay if you watch it with low expectations.
The first half of this movie is bearable. Although, some inconsistent things happen like people walking around, terror in their eyes, too afraid to look backwards, while nobody at that point has a clue about the existence of the creature. Once they learn about its existence, it turns out that each an every character has an IQ of around 20. If you really, REALLY want to be killed, then you might do what these people do, provided you are lobotomized first.And if that stupidity (and believe me, it is NOT fun to watch-- it is the only reason that I think this movie is not watchable and deserves the 4 out of 10 that I give it-- it's pure, 100% annoyance that ruins all fun completely) isn't enough; there are other large inconsistencies that are simply impossible, but that apparently the director wants us to take for granted. This eel can bite a man in half in one scene of the movie, and it comes through the waste-pipe of a shower-bath in the next. In one scene it lifts up grown men, throwing them in trees-- and the eel is described to be pure muscle by this professor dude-- while in the end our hero wrestles with the creature, in the water no less(!), and keeps it under control with his bare arms. Yeah right. What an insult. Pure waste of time.
