SOURCE-Echo Bridge DVD
The four bonus movies promised on the cover and PD horror films you already got on other sets. This is one you buy for CROCZILLA and CROCZILLA only.
A croc farmer sells his giant croc to a shady resturant owner. The owner plans on cooking it and selling it. But Croczilla escapes before this can happen. She is ready to lay eggs.
On her path she eats a lady's purse that has 1 million Euros in it. Which is why in China this film is known as The Million Dollar Crocodile. Oh yea this is China's first big budget creature feature. Costing 4.5 million US.
So word gets out about the purse with the money in it in Croczilla,and we get the lady after it. The resturant owner and a cop. Plus Croczilla's original owner. Tagging along is a kid that became friends with Croczilla,yea like Gamera.
Only really one on screen kill,and it isn't that bloody. The CGI Croc looks good. For 2012 this looks better than most of those SYFY Saturday night creature features. You know stuff like Mega Shark vs Crocasaurus and Meth Gator.
The acting appears to be good,the dubbing is not great. Lots of bad accents and all that. I could see some people finding the dubbing to be a bit offensive.
Nothing amazing but still a decent way to pass an hour and a half.
Now the drawback to this release. Got 5 movies on one DVD. Croczilla is majorly compressed. The picture always looked a tad out of focus. Like when you first wake up in the morning and everything is a bit foggy. Nothing major. The sound was simple 2 channel stereo.
Now I want to find a decent Blu Ray of this. I can see myself going back and watching this again.
Croczilla gets a B-
