After an African dinosaur ancestor of the crocodile is found, Dr. Campbell uses its DNA to create prototypes at Paula Kennedy's Genetic Research Co. (Gereco) lab. However one must be put down after killing someone, another escapes and the information is kept from sheriff Harper. His daughter, county dog catcher Diane Harper, helps her ex (welding artist Tom Banning) with his kid brother Michael's beloved dog. They bump into Campbell and discover the dinocroc is growing, having escaped down a tunnel. Although Gereco hires Australian crocodile specialist and intrepid hunter, Richard 'Dick' Sydney, the beast proves impervious to bullets, so the body count rises alarming.

| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...a typically cheesy straight-to-video monster flick... |
| User ReviewPrivate UI haven't even seen this movie, but I'm giving it 5 stars because the trailer is unintentionally hilarious. "Fido?" |
| User Reviewneel pa really good sci fi B movie, good for a laugh and a little scare to the little kids. good effects, really faitfull to the book. |
| User ReviewKristina YThat is one thing i would hate to see. It is a real monster. |
| User ReviewPaul CSIGNIFICANTLY better than all the other recent Corman monster flicks I've watched! Decent writing, decent special effects, decent acting and - most surprising of all - good cinematography really bring this one all together. The Dinocroc itself is an awesome monster who gets plenty of chances to show off how cool he is, and man did I love when he was on screen! The characters here aren't the idiots I've come to expect, the dialogue sounds and feels natural, and the situation doesn't come across as forced. It also seems like it had a bigger budget than the other ones - you don't get the made-for-TV feel, instead it's just low budget. Really, this is just an all-around GOOD B-movie. I can definitely see why Roger Corman wanted to make sequels, 'cause this bad boy certainly had (has?) potential. Definitely recommended! |
| User ReviewJeff HSurprisingly good. I was shocked, they did a good job with this. It's not scary...in fact, I found it funny in certain spots but it's definitely worth watching. |
| User ReviewSally FActually not that bad a movie. The CGI is not quite right, but that is what adds to the charm. |
| User ReviewBrian BYou just have to laugh at this crazy and hilarious sci-fi delight. |
| User ReviewJohn BHighly enjoyable cheese of a movie, it was not what eye was expecting. It surprised me by being surprisingly good for a Sci-Fi channel Saturday night movie. But hey that's just me because eye grew up watching those Saturday night B flicks. It's funny how this movie has that little kid from that Lizzie Mgguire show my little sister likes to watch. The crocodile in this movie looks kind of like a miniture version of the American Godzilla which is kind of cool. |
| User ReviewLuke BIt's not quite dinosaur, it's not quite crocodile, but somewhere in between. Corman serves up the usual monster killery with a lot of fun, and a rather interesting looking beast. It's doubtful that it will WOW anybody, but you do get some fairly surprising moments. |
