Lake Placid 2

Normally, I would be geeked for this news, as I loved the original, but the three words "Direct to Video" are a joy killer to me.

They should just leave this flick alone. I mean... look what happened to Alligator. That sequel hurts the first flick.

This is one of my favorite guilty-pleasure flicks. I'm sure a DTV sequel is going to suck, but what the hell..... I'll give it a shot.

I am sure when it comes out on dvd the retail price will be extremely high $20+, then drop down to the $10 range where it should have started at to begin with. Direct to video should start out at $10 to $15 to begin with in my opinion.

I'll watch it even though it will be terrible. The original one was a fun little movie that I've watched quite a few times over the years. Great cast, some excellent one-liners, Bettie White in a very not Rose kind of role, and of course the cutie Bridget Fonda....So here's hoping they can pull it off again.

I'm surprised Brigette Fonda isn't in this DTV sequel. It would be a stepup for her career. The last time most people have seen her was Kiss of the Dragon. I watched it recently and couldnt stand her acting. Anyway I hate DTV sequels and this kind of pissed me off :/

I wish Fox would re-release the first one with an anamorphic transfer instead.

Yeah Kiss of The Dragon wasn't a very good movie all round....

So I went on IMDB to see what Bridget had been up to lately and she hasn't made a theatrical movie since 2001. The I read she had a serious accident and got married/had a kid. So maybe her career isn't that bad. Maybe she's just been too busy with other things.

I also discovered that she was born on January 27th. That's my birthday!! Maybe that's why I've always liked her.

If anything we should all love her. Didn't she have a cameo as Ash's girlfriend during the beginning re-cap of Army Of Darkness?!

I loved Point of No Return...but that could've been because that was the movie that introduced me to Nina Simone's music. Ah well, she's hot and a decent actor.

Oh wait, a Lake Placid 2 thread? Um....yeah, sounds like a great movie! (maybe not)

Bring on the 'gators. I have a guilty pleasure for cheaply done "nature run amuck" flicks..I'm sure this will be a fine addition to my collection.

Perhaps we can get a Boa vs. Python vs. Big Ass Lake Placid Gator petition going.

That quick-snapping crocodile of Lake Placid is making a comeback to town waters, according to Moviehole.net. Dave Flores (BOA Vs Python) is directing the sequel, which against pits a populace of innocent [and some not-so-innocent] folks against a crocodile that lurks in the local lake. Superman’s pop, ex-“Smallville” star John Schneider, will this time be left with a pair of scaly boots by films end. Co-starring with him, Cloris Leachman (Beerfest) and newcomer Chad Collins (Legion of the Dead). The movie, filmed in Bulgaria, will premiere on the Sci-Fi channel before making the quick route to DVD from Fox.
