supergator be set in hawaii where a group of vulcanologist be study a volcano near a holiday resort and they think it might be about to blow . professor scott kinney ( brad johnson ) and one of his senior graduate ryan houston ( josn kelly ) be send in to liaise with resident volcano watcher max ( dave ruskjer ) and his assistant alexandra stevens ( mary alexander stiefvater ) and compare note and the sort of thing vulcanologist do . they decide to set some seismograph up near the base of the volcano to measure it activity and the group set off but hadn not count on there be a 30 foot genetically create upergator that kill and eat anyone it come across and it head straight for the holiday resort where it have plenty of tasty human to pick from . king of the rip off cheapies roger corman strike again and this straight to video sci fi channel creature feature be executive produce by corman while it be co write and direct by brian clyde and isn not anything particularly special although it pass the time harmlessly enough if you do not expect too much . the script by clyde and france doel and jeffrey sturges be pretty clichéd and very standard for this type of film and basically there some form of huge man eat monster or creature run around eat the less important member of the cast and when all say and do that all there be to supergator really . the film move along at a reasonable pace and i certainly wouldn not call it slow or boring and there be a few unintentionally funny moment . i must also congratulate the maker for such a high body count and surprisingly a lot of the cast die even some i be expect to make it . the reason behind the supergator itself be your standard genetic experiment go horribly wrong type scenario and you know i be sit there watch this and i be think to myself why would a bunch of scientist create a huge prehistoric alligator . it just doesn not make any sense to me and what be they hop to prove or find out that they couldn not achieve by genetically create a docile and plant eat dinosaur that could have be easily control and rely on not to eat every person it come across . i do not know and then again maybe i be just think about this too much . if you like cheesy creature feature then supergator isn not all that bad but it nothing new or special . director clyde doesn not do much to liven thing up and some of the scenery be quite nice but the direction and the set ups aren not that great . it seem just about every tourist on hawaii be traipse through this particularly patch of forest where the supergator live and there be random people like model and dope head and fisherman and lover and waterfall watcher and random guy drive jeep and vulcanologist walk around . the gore be disappointing and there be one sever body part and someone be decapitate otherwise there be just quick shot of people cover in fake blood . the cgi computer effect be poor and the supergator itself look ok but it isn not animate that well and every time it attack someone a fake puppet head and jaw be use and there be close ups of it blood stain mouth and teeth yet when the film switch back to the cgi supergator it mouth and teeth be perfectly clean . what do it do . whip out a handkerchief and wipe itself . there be also a fair amount of cgi blood which look pretty fake and almost like a solid red cloud . with a supposed budget of about $ 250 and 000 this be pretty damned low budget and in a way they do ok with the meagre amount they have but it still not a very good film . actually shoot on location in hawaii apparently . the act isn not anything particularly memorable . kelly mcgillis of top gun ( 1986 ) fame play a scientist and get eaten . supergator be an ok time waster and that be kind to it and it do not impress me that much but it keep me relatively quiet for 100 odd minute . i have definitely see well but then again i have definitely see worse .
