ALLIGATOR

FRIGHTFEST RETROSPECTIVE

The cult monster movie is back! Brilliantly scripted by B movie maestro John Sayles (BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS, PIRANHA, THE HOWLING), the urban legend about baby alligators being flushed in New York sewers and flourishing becomes a highly polished horror gem. Brilliant Robert Forster is the cop haunted by his ‘history’ of losing partners, a tragedy repeated when his latest sidekick ends up in giant jaws. Henry Silva is wonderful as the great hunter summoned to stalk the monstrous gator. A beloved classic of shock, terror and queasy humour leading to a finale of riotous suspense.
