“Don’t give him the stick!”

I predict that in ten years I will see Crawl mentioned in some kind of “top 10 animal terror movies” list and I won’t be completely sure if I’ve seen it or not.

LOL. No joke, I was cringing as well, imagining you listening to Tom and cringing.

What can I say, I have alligators on the brain? Tomato, tomatoe! Really, it’s all Alexander Aja’s fault.

Adam, I love the way you put it about animals behaving unrealistically being like people behaving unrealistically. That’s a great analogy for how it must feel for you. Fortunately, most of us don’t have that issue, because movies are playing off our dumb stereotypes and fears of various animals. Of course a shark will jump up on a boat!

I didn’t realize the Black Water sequel was so far along. I even thought it was one of those things that might never happen. Unfortunately – I hope this isn’t crass to say – Andrew Traucki’s track record since Black Water doesn’t instill me with much confidence for a Black Water sequel that lives up to the original. :(

I believe the industry term is croctors.

Is this a roguelike?

Spectacular! That might be the best thing you have ever posted.

I watched Crawl yesterday. It’s kinda hard to find much to say about it. I knows what it wants to be, executes on its premise with no extra frills, and gets in and out in less than ninety minutes.

Basically the only questions are: are the leads and director good enough to keep you engaged for the runtime, and yeah, they definitely are, so I enjoyed it a lot.

Rez!

I find it unbelievable that Kaya Scodelario is a champion swimmer. She is a willowy actress with no muscle to speak of.

Otherwise this movie does not instill additional hate or fear of alligator in me. I’ve played enough Red Dead Redemption 2 to hate and fear them.

Def. worth a rental.

Think I am gonna watch this later today, trailer sold me on it, and its free on Prime.
