A monstrous crocogator attacks a resort on Sri Lanka in this Italo rip-off of âJawsâ
An entrepreneur (Mel Ferrer) introduces his new exotic resort off the coast of south-central Asia to a photographer and employee (Claudio Cassinelli & Barbara Bach). When the âgodâ of the remote river is angered by the intrusion he manifests as a giant alligator and starts killing people, including Natives. Naturally, the local tribe rises up to get rid of the tourists.
âThe Great Alligatorâ (1979) is an Italian production, also known as âThe Great Alligator River,â âThe Big Alligator Riverâ or merely âAlligator.â Itâs an Italo knock-off of âJawsâ (1975) and its immediate copies âPiranhaâ (1978) and âGrizzlyâ (1976), albeit with a huge crocogator and a south-central Asian setting. It lacks the finesse of âJawsâ and the amusement of âPiranha,â but it has more pizazz than the bland âGrizzly.â The eccentric score is a highlight, mixing 70âs prog rock, tribal percussions and disco.
Lory Del Santo as Jane is notable as one of the partying tourists; she is featured in two superb shots from behind (youâll know when you see âem). Thereâs also an amusing precocious girl with her mother whoâs ready to par-tay. Just donât look for any semblance of political correctness (which is a good thing).
The movie runs 1 hour, 29 minutes, and was shot in Sri Lanka.
