These animals are not funny

Three years before with Cujo and his Saint-Bernard transformed into a formidable predator, according to a novel by Stephen King, Lewis Teague had already signed a nugget of series B with The incredible alligator written by John Sayles, previously at the origin of Piranhas success. In the film, little Marisa returns from her vacation in Florida with a baby alligator that her father ends up flushing down the toilet. Twelve years later, the animal has grown well, feeding on dead animals that have been used for scientific tests. He will soon sow terror among the population…

A cycle of critters embodying the absolute Evil typical of the Eighties, and even a little beyond with the sequel Alligator 2: The Mutation by Jon Hess released in 1991. This time, an alligator hidden in the sewers for years feeds on chemicals spilled from the lab. As several people disappear under mysterious circumstances, Inspector Hodges is in charge of the investigation.
