Review of The Crater Lake Monster (1977) by Colin G — 26 Sep 2009
The 3 stars is solely for Dave Allen's dinosaur animation as this low budget Jaws rip off fails on every other attempt. A good B-movie plot, a prehstoric monster is awakened by a meteor crash in a mountain lake, is wasted by a totally amatuerish handling of the production.
If the lame attempts at suspense aren't enough, the weak dialog, awful acting and ridiculous attempts at comic relief by two good ole boys who rent boats, put the nail in coffin of this flicks B-movie potential.
In an era of senseless remakes this is a title screaming to be turned into a better movie by more talented hands.
