Alligator: Hardly a "Classic"
6 September 2017
I was informed that this is considered a classic within the genre. I'm not sure what genre that is but either way it was somewhat of an anti-climax.

A baby alligator is flushed down the toilet and twelve years later its big and it's angry!

It's one police officer & his scientist buddies job to track it and kill it while surrounded by people who simply don't believe them.

Is it wrong that I was cheering on the alligator? After all it's not some evil monster, it's just an abandoned hungry animal.

Alligator isn't bad, it's just not that exciting. It looks decent considering it's 37 tears old but it hardly grips you.

The Good:

Creature effects aren't that bad considering it's age

The Bad:

No consistency regarding the Alligators size

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Alligators can be easily purchased as pets

Alligators make great jump ramps
