Lake Placid

Lake Placid

Directed by Steve Miner

Welcome to Black Lake. Its placid waters compliment the pristine Maine wilderness it borders. This tranquil setting is probably the last place you'd expect a gruesome fatality. But then it's also the last place you'd expect to find a 30-foot, narrow-snouted, multi-toothed, reptile of the species Crocodylus--an eating machine more commonly known as a crocodile. It is at this lake where an emotionally fragile, nature-phobic, New York paleontologist who's been reluctantly dispatched for her first real field assignment, teams up with an eccentric billionaire to find this menace.

A female paleontologist heads to Maine where local fish and game officials have discovered a gigantic and deadly 30-foot crocodile.

Cast: Bridget Fonda, Bill Pullman, Oliver Platt

I remember seeing this at the Theater, and it has been a solid 2 or 3 time a year movie ever since, This is a fantastic movie, it's not horror or scary, it is just a solid movie with classic one liners and the casting was perfect!

I was a fun movie. Betty White was amazing and had plenty of laugh out loud moments. Loses points for me because it leaned so much toward comedy it was basically a comedy. But a good one!

Would enjoy the movie better if Fonda’s characters wasn’t so annoying.
