NOW WITH 2+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES

Director Sergio Martino (ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK) combines a monster reptile with an all-star EuroCult cast for one of the most outrageously entertaining Italian Jungle Carnage movies of them all: At the opening of a tropical resort, a photographer (Claudio Cassinelli of SLAVE OF THE CANNIBAL GOD), an anthropologist (Barbara Bach of THE SPY WHO LOVED ME) and an arrogant hotelier (Mel Ferrer of EATEN ALIVE!) are besieged by hostile natives, obnoxious tourists and a gargantuan river beast that intends to devour them all. Romano Puppo (ROBOWAR), Richard Johnson (ZOMBIE) and Silvia Collatina (THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY) co-star in this "top ten killer alligator/crocodile movie" (JoBlo), co-written by George Eastman (ANTHROPOPHAGOUS), Cesare Frugoni (SPIDER LABYRINTH) and Ernesto Gastaldi (ALMOST HUMAN), newly scanned in 4K from the original negative.

    Press Quotes

    Sergio Martino in full-on exotic horror mode... Charming and daffy, with gory mayhem, Barbara Bach strutting her stuff and a hilariously crazed turn by Richard Johnson.

         —Mondo Digital

    A nightmare in deep waters... Sergio Martino delivers plenty of gorgeous locations, effective sequences, a handsome cast and enormous creature violence.

         —Blu-ray.com

    One of our top 10 killer crocodile/alligator movies... An obvious JAWS ape-job, giallo master Sergio Martino shows little restraint with his savagely sickening killer-croc attacks.

         —JoBlo

    Big fun from start to finish... Packed with kooky monster-critter chomping action, gratuitous nudity and a fun cast for Eurocult fans.

         —Rock! Shock! Pop!

    One of the best crocodile/alligator movies ever... Shamelessly raunchy, with great atmosphere, beautiful cinematography and an Italian eye for detail that sets it apart.

         —Rabbit Reviews

    An undiscovered gem... It blends the tropes of JAWS ripoffs, the Italian cannibal genre and Irwin Allen disaster films with non-stop carnage.

         —Acidemic

    A great Italian horror movie... People get eaten, the locals get angry and eventually all that's left is a stack of bodies and buckets of blood. The final showdown is a work of art.

         —Taste of Cinema

    A fun ride... Sergio Martino's films have always had a certain charm and identity which EuroHorror fans have enjoyed and revered for years.

         —Gorezone
