Not to be confused with Crocodile, though I've seen that one too.

Today I would like to bring you a new segment on this journal, the Super Stellar Acting Awards!

This week's winner is the movie Croc, brought to you by Sci-Fi Channel. (Seriously, the acting was SUPER STELLAR. Especially on the part of the bad guys, who all sounded like they were reading off cue cards.)

Croc also wins this week's Implausibility Award, for the scene where the crocodile eats the guy in his pool. (I don't know about you, but I am perfectly capable of seeing to the bottom of an ABSOLUTELY CLEAR pool, even at night, especially when it has LIGHTS IN IT. And I'm also pretty sure that even without the lights, I would notice a 20 FOOT CROCODILE in my pool. They're kind of hard to hide, even in cloudy water.)

Completing its triple threat status, Croc takes home one more award this week, the Sheer Stupidity Award. This goes to the characters who went hunting the 20 foot crocodile 1. with a PISTOL 2. in an INFLATABLE RAFT and 3. with SCUBA gear. (Honestly people, there's stupidity, and then there's SHEER stupidity. How stupid do you have to be to go SCUBA diving with a huge man-eating crocodile? Award-winningly stupid, that's how stupid.)

Though I do have to give Croc points for the cave full of partially-gnawed, bloody body parts at the end. That was creepy, and they actually didn't look fake.


Tune in next week for another winner!

Ooh! Awards!

...were they drunk? Drunk people should be able to be excused from the Sheer Stupidity Award, since they were intoxicated. I mean, I think so, anyway.

Sadly they were not drunk (which does indeed excuse most stupidity) but I suspect the people who made this movie might have been.

Ha! Or high, possibly? Was it, at least, a movie so bad, it was funny?

Oh, I was amused. Of course, I was composing my snarky livejournal entry in my head half the time I was watching it, but I was still amused.
