antonis k Dark Age isn't without it's charm for sure but this killer crocodile film lacks both on thrills? and action. While the overcomplex storyline makes for a disappointing end result. (5/10) Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review brandon s The best of all "killer croc" films. Its still not an amazing film by any stretch, but its better and far more interesting than any other killer croc films. A realistic northern Australian locale and an absolutely unique premise (the crocodile is just an animal, not a monster, the humans are the problem) make it a much more rewarding watch than any other killer croc film. The animatronic crocodile is also anatomically accurate for a large saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus), compared to the non-specific crocodyliforms usually shown in films of this type. Some of the performances are well above the usually quality for a film like this. Its no Jaws (really, what films are?), but its definitely one of the better animal attack films and worth a watch. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/18/22 Full Review Audience Member ) Enjoyable beast movie held up by the indigenous Australian themes woven throughout. Acting is solid except for Ray Meagher's rubbish performance as the wildlife department head. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting little oddity that was kinda lost for a while. One of the many Jaws ripoffs to get churned out, but this one takes a strange turn halfway through, where the Croc is no longer the threat, but rather a victim. It features some intense sequences and a great score and one particularly shocking scene. It's cool too how they explore some of the aboriginals beliefs. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/04/18 Full Review Audience Member Pretty good ozploitation picture with very good creature effects. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member As with any Ozploitation films, particularly from the late 80s, most of the action contained has well and truly become ironically hilarious. There is some value here simply because of the fact that this is set in the rare location of far north Queensland, along with the fact it features a pre-Alf Stewar Ray Meagher and that the score is actually pretty kick ass. Outside of that, it's what you'd expect, thankfully, not too culturally insensitive as you might have feared. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
