 Rogue - Killer Croc Movie
This just came out last week in Australia.
Going to see it this weekend.
An idyllic wildlife cruise disintegrates into terror when a party of tourists is stalked by a massive man-eating crocodile in the new thriller from the director of Wolf Creek.
Pete McKell (Michael Vartan), a cynical American travel writer, joins a disparate group of holidaymakers on a river cruise through the waters of Kakadu National Park. Initially, Pete clashes with their tour captain, a feisty young woman, Kate Ryan (Radha Mitchell) who assumes he is just another ‘city slicker’ in search of a quick thrill.
After an uneventful day cruising the river, Kate is reluctantly persuaded to steer their boat into unexplored territory. They discover a secluded lake, but terror strikes when their craft receives a powerful blow from beneath the murky depths and begins to sink. With little choice, she beaches the vessel on the closest dry land – a tiny mud island. With a rising tide and only half an hour of daylight left, fear grips the group as they realise they are trapped in the lair of a ‘rogue’ crocodile, governed only by its need to hunt and kill. Begrudgingly, Pete and Kate join forces to keep hysteria at bay and in the process start to see beyond their initial impressions.
Their first attempt to escape fails, but then Pete has an idea – they must trap the crocodile to enable the group to flee to the other side of the island whilst Kate swims for help. Pete volunteers to stand guard, but, without warning, the beast breaks free and targets Kate who fails to resurface. As darkness descends and the muddy waters rise, a terrifying struggle ensues with only one probable outcome…death.

it's not bad, but the film hasn't been doing very well in Australia.
There didn't seem to be very much press vs his last film which had a lot of buzz because of the disturbing content.
The film is entertaining but too silly for my liking when I saw it.

The opening seen with the puppet corpse chainsaw car chase is epic.

I've never watched a killer croc movie in my life and probably never will. TCM2 was hilarious, though. That opening car chase scene was over the top and sets the tone for the ridiculousness of rest of the movie. How about that chili cook off?
