Krocodylus

Plot synopsis:
The film opens with John's vision of screaming people in the water and being killed by something under the water. A plane full of people getting psyched up to try Blood Surfing at some remote island known for its sea surfing locale lands on water. A documentary is planned on the blood surfing exploits of Bog (Dax Miller) and Jeremy (Joel West) who is known for extreme sports, with camera operator Cecily (Kate Fischer) and her boyfriend/producer Zack (Matthew Borlenghi). As the film progresses Cecily's interest in Bog develops.
After arriving the group decides to head to shark rich waters by a remote island, so they contact local guide John (Duncan Regehr) and his girlfriend Arty (Taryn Reif). John at first refuses to go, but then relents and accepts the job on the condition his sail team come along, including the young Lemmya (Maureen Larrazabal) who is attracted to Jeremy. The group heads out to the shark zone, despite John being plagued by visions of screaming swimmers being devoured by something in the water. Clumps of meat is thrown in to attract the sharks while Bog and Jeremy suit up, slit their feet, and begin surfing among a group of sharks. While taking a break from the shoot, at the beach they saw a shark is eaten by something gigantic and fills the ocean water. The group wisely call it a day.
On another part of the island nearby Jeremy and Lemmya have sex, as her parents Melba (Susan Africa) and Sonny (Chris Vertido), are devoured by the crocodile and the boat wrecked. Lemmya heads to the water to bathe without realizing the danger and is attacked. The remaining crew go back for the boat but find it wrecked. Bog went underwater for the camera. They are chased by the crocodile that came out from under the water. As they escape to the beach on the other side of the island they are taken captive by local pirates.
As one of them is trying to have his way with Cecily the crocodile jumped out of the water and ate him. In the ensuing chaos Bog with Zack and Jeremy throws the bandits into the sea. The pirate leader shoots and hits the boat's fuel tank, forcing Bog and company to abandon ship. They are picked up by John and Arty. In revenge for the deaths that happened sometime in his past, John goes back for the creature. Zack wants to film the killing, but John denies him. In the chaos when the crocodile is harpooned, Jeremy gets eaten. John beaches the ship on a coral reef while trying to outrun the beast.
John wires the boat to explode. The beast attacks before he can finish, tearing him in half, The surviving pirate leader knocks out Arty and then tries to rape Cecily. Cecily starts talking dirty saying things like "I want it" to trick him. Cecily deliberately steps on the line that triggers a spear trap that John left behind killing the pirate. Then she goes to wake Arty. The girls walk further inland and find a temple on the island, with no sign of any predators. The beast comes to attack them. They jumped into the nearby river and since they are in freshwater, the beast would not go near them.
Bog recovers the explosives from the wrecked boat, and is reunited with Cecily and Arty. He baits the beast to an unstable wall and uses the explosives to bring the wall crashing down on the creature. Arty believing the beast is dead starts kicking it and in a swift move it opens its mouth devours her. Bog and Cecily starts running with the beast in close pursuit until the beast leaps and gets impaled through its stomach by a sharp protruding rock, ending its reign of terror. Bog and Cecily rest on the other side of the river bank and starts kissing as they celebrate, the camera slowly pans over to reveal the flowing water along the river.

Review:
I enjoy monster movies as much as the next guy,and 'Blood Surf' is one of those movies that I enjoyed.But I have seen other movies about a giant man-eating crocodile that were slightly better.Examples of these would be 'Crocodile' and 'Lake Placid.'And there are some croc movies that are worse,such as 'Supercroc.'Anyway,I thought that 'Blood Surf' was a very entertaining monster movie.But why did this movie get a rating as low as a 3.Come on people,what's wrong with you?Don't you find people being ripped apart by a giant reptile in a horror movie a little enjoyable.Sure,I know that the croc kinda looked fake but just sit down and have a good time..
Bad enough to inspire me to join IMDb. If you have ever seen a porn movie you would have understood that it contains appalling acting, direction and storyline, only to provide a thin backdrop to the sex scenes - it's kind of sad really.
This film is not good at being anything and is rare, not only in being moronic, but in actually making its audience feel embarrassed for the people who made it,Imagine years of clawing and scratching your way to being a 'professional' actor or director, for this to be the result.
Flawed Fun. The premise (modified from the box description): Follow an MTV style filmmaker as she and her crew shoot an expose of the latest, most dangerous craze in extreme sports-bloodsurfing, or surfing in shark infested waters while intentionally trying to attract the creatures.
The quality of the film is a mish-mash of a too-confusing script with more than its share of holes, some pretty hokey dialogue, and some decent direction, editing and performances, with surprisingly good cinematography, occasional moments of tension, and the requisite beautiful actresses.The biggest problems seem to arise from the script, which isn't very straightforward about what bloodsurfing is, why it is popular, what the relationships are among the principle characters, who some later characters are and why they are taking the actions they're taking.
Characters are so cliché-ridden, that you can play a game of "Guess who ends up as a monster meal" after less than ten minutes into the movie, and probably get every single one right--including the order that they will get devoured.
I could almost hear rim shots.Overall, OK, if you have 90 minutes to waste, and you want to laugh at a so-bad-it's-good-movie.
Blood Surf shamelessly joins the list of stupid, redundant pulp-horror titles about ridiculously big animals that want to turn the food chain upside down.
Blood Surf is every bit as bad as these other films and  on top of that  it likes to exaggerate tremendously.
During the film, he amuses himself by devouring a bunch of utterly stupid surfer-dudes & dudettes who came to seek new thrills by surfing in a shark-congested area.
Early in the film, one of the characters refers to Jaws as being a 'mechanical toy' but the croc here looks at least 10 times less real than Spielberg's great white shark.
You guessed right: Blood Surf is a very bad film.
Arriving in Australia to shoot a documentary piece, the crew and the locals find the shoot has attracted the attention of a monstrous crocodile and must try to get away from the deadly creature before they become victims.A strangely fun entry, as there's very few solid points about this one that should make it as good as it really is.
Probably some of the worst special effects I've yet seen, though the head and jaws looked cool when it was on land.As always with a low budget horror film, there's a couple of topless scenes, couple of sex scenes and plenty of tight tops and cleavage.
Which is no bad thing in my book.I won't ruin the ending, but I nearly cried it was so funny.To sum up, stone cold sober analysis of this flick won't reveal it to be a Citizen Kane, but then that isn't what the film is trying to achieve.
It still isn't the best crocodile movie i've seen but enjoyable for the sport of surfing on shark infested waters and staying trapped in an island with a giant crocodile.
And why all that porno stuff was it to entertain or to only burn time in the film to look like a long movie.
Lets face it, how many films are you ever going to see where two talentless (well, acting wise) actresses, flash their excessively well proportioned boobs at a killer crocodile ahead of the classic line "Hey, we'd better stop croc teasing!"Still, what would you expect from the film's (supposedly fact-based) premise.
A group of doco makers (included the two miss boobs) set out to film a group of blood-surfers who cut themselves deliberately in the water to attract sharks in an effort to jazz up proceedings.
And there are a lot of similarities to "Jaws" throughout this entire movie."Blood Surf" is about a group of young people traveling to a tropical island in order to make a movie about surfing in shark-infested waters.
They soon find themselves prey for a monstrous saltwater crocodile.If you have seen "Jaws" then you have essentially already also seen "Blood Surf"; except "Jaws" was impressive and good, "Blood Surf" wasn't.As for the acting in the movie, well, let's just say it was as to be expected for a movie of this type.
That being said, don't get me wrong, I am not saying it is bad, just don't expect any extravagant performances.If for nothing else, then there are some pretty nice locations throughout the movie that are nice to look at.There was a very unnecessary lovemaking scene which just sleazes up the movie in a very pointless way.
The plot throws in everything but the kitchen sink in its attempt to entertain; and the croc, when finally seen, is laughably fake-looking.The pitch-meeting for "Blood Surf" possibly went something like this: The pitcher excitedly describes the basic plot: "A couple of radical surfers go to a tropical island known for shark attacks so they can capture themselves on camera 'blood surfing' -- cutting their feet to bleed and wildly surfing the shark-infested waters." When he gets a silent reaction, he adds, "Okay, um, let's see...
(And I'm not at all mocking flat-chested women since I don't mind women with small or no breasts, I even used to be involved with one; I'm talking about nigh-anorexic women with zero curves).The film runs 84 minutes and was shot in the Philipines.BOTTOM LINE: "Blood Surf" is not a good movie in any way, shape or form, but you gotta respect its exuberant attempts to amuse.GRADE: C- (but with solid entertainment value, IF you're in the right mode).
This role will serve to keep the boat from listing to one side." While everyone seems to want to pick on the croc, I actually got the biggest grin watching the fake sharks and dorsal fins around the surfers.
The idea caught my attention, some adrenaline junkies looking for a thrill decide to chum the water in order to attract sharks to boost the extremes of surfing.
RE: "Blood Surf": Could someone PLEASE let me know: the filipina Maureen Larrazabal, whose character Lemmey (is that spelled correctly?), the 17-year old native girl who makes love to the blond guy in the lagoon; when she gets attacked by the croc, it that scene actually shown in the movie, or is the audience supposed to just figure it out?????
If not for the scenery--both topographical and feminine--this would easily be in the running for the WORST MOVIE EVER.Bad acting, stupid plot, inane characters...
This misses out on all fronts.A bunch of young people -- women with heaving breasts and continuously wet T-Shirts, naturally -- go to film "blood surfing" and end up running into a 31 foot crocodile.Not only was the croc obviously fake, but some of the props [notice the boat hitting the reef in particular] look like they've come out of thunderbirds!No good, from start to finish.
Now that we have the housekeeping chores out of the way, let's get on with it.In Cliff Notes version, here's the story (don't worry, I'll try not to give anything away)...A film crew travels to a remote island to film a documentary about two surfers (established cute boy and his buddy) who surf with sharks.
With Alligator and it's sequels, Lake Placid, Crocodile, and now Blood Surf, it now looks like "over-sized crocodile/alligator" movies should now get their own category at Blockbuster.
With Ed writing the scripts, and a room full of monkees creating crocodile special effects on a computer, all we'd need would be a cast of crocky fodder with Russ Meyer breasts and Ren Hoek pectoral implants.While Tobe Hooper's crocky opus referenced his own movies, Blood Surf chose to dish out a bunch of aging themes from the chum bucket of other movies.
The plot, in itself, is so astoundingly stupid as to be riveting, in a morbid way: two idiotic thrillseekers who surf in shark-infested waters and the filmmakers committing their exploits to celluloid disturb a gigantic crocodile in the area.
How can someone make this film, watch it back and then actually say "Yeah, thats a good movie.
For instance lets look a particular scene when a mad hungry for revenge captain is fishing for the big croc, well the cast have managed to get of the boat and are wading their way to shore (BTW they were miles out to see), one of them thinks its a good idea to get on a surf board and "surf" to shore.
Even the stupidity of this film couldnt save it.Altogether, Poor plot, Poor acting/cast, Poor special effects, avoid this film, i can think of many things you could do in 2 hours then to sit down and watch this.No score, its off the chart..
Sometimes I rest my head and think about the reasons why movies about killer sharks and/or crocodiles are still getting made these days.
Krocodylus (Boy what a stupid title) or in other words "BLOOD SURF" had to be one of the craziest films i have ever seen.The plot goes something like this.
Around 5 people go to the South Pacific to go Blood Surfing- This is surfing of where the surfer makes himself bleed, so Sharks can come after him in the water.Instead of them dissing some sharks, they come across a monster...a "31 foot Crocodile"...Wow!
Trust me..It isn't.The Crocodile does not appear in the film until half way, and BOY does that Crocodile look fake or WHAT, i havent seen such cheap CGI effects in my life.
The movie definantley is NOT original, its steals EXACT ideas from films like JAWS, INDIANA JONES and more.But wait....Its a crocodile, and this film does have alot of deaths, so it must be Gory or scary right?
Who the hell bothered reading the script and actually MAKING IT?The producers must have thought that adding ALMOST porn like sex in its film and gratautious nudity would make us forget...Well even though the sex scene was interesting, the acting was miserable.
A man is on board his ship which is at least 15 foot high, and this giant TOTALLY FAKE looking crocodile (that appears bigger than the mountain backdrop) jumps up, and grabs the guys head and jumps back into the water.Also where is this film met to be set in?
I thought it was Australia, yet all of a sudden they are attacked by Mexican Guerrilas, and then they say that they are in the Phillipines, when there are many Chinese people around, and alot of the cast are American..WHAT???This film simply relies on its good looking cast to go running around bouncing their flesh Baywatch style, this film lacks style.It starts off okay, and then it just gets HORRID, its actually SO funny.The characters in this film are so STUPID.A character jumps into the water where the crocodile is stuck in a noose, she swims near it with a camera, and then it lets itself loose.
The crocodile looks like a cardboard cut-out in strings, its hilarious.I give this movie 1 star out of 5, but i also want to give it a 5, no film has made me laugh so hard, when it had no intention to.PLEASE watch this movie, you will understand what i am talking about.* - 1 STAR out of (5).
A group of kids filming a documentry about a new, but dangerous trend called Blood Surfing are terrozied by an oversized crocodile.
It has no idea what it should be, or more important, what it even wants to be.A full hour ellipses by the time we really start on the plot with the crocodile and by that time, the tone of the movie has undergone a one hundred-eighty-degree turn.
Blood Surf AKA Krocodylus is a fair film that has an okay cast which includes Dax Miller, Taryn Reif, Kate Fischer, Duncan Regehr, Joel West, Matt Borlenghi, Maureen Larrazabal, Cris Vertido, Susan Africa, Archie Adamos, Rolando Santo Domingo, and Malecio Amayao.
but i actually thought that it was reasonable.It was about a group of people that went to do blood surfing but they got trapped on this deserted island and were being hunted by a 40 foot something crocodile that sometimes looked like a cardboard cut out and the porno sex scenes they put in to fill space, i mean what was the need?But i generally liked the film, it wasn't brilliant but i wouldn't say it was bad either, it did have some good scenes and lines.i decided that i liked it the second time i watched it, as then i had decided to take it as a comedy and not a horror, i laughed for ages.
Then i toldmyself i liked the film and it was really good and i now have it on DVD and watch it the occasional time.So would recommend it to people that want a laugh, because believe me it really is!i give it 6/10.
its about a group of people who originally wanted to do blood surfing which is where you make yourself bleed to attract sharks!
i think the film is quite good actually, but you'd have to be real strange like me to appreciate it they way i do!
If you want to see a good fake crocodile watch Lake Placid.
The acting isn't half bad either, and Kate Fischer looks good.
The location was beautiful and the movie start good with some nice surf scenes.
it does'nt cut it, does it!If you WOULD like a cool movie about a big reptile that is actually very, very good, well-played and funny: go rent Lake Placid!
The only real highlight in the movie is the death of the sniveling guy and the reaction of the surviving characters to it.In every other way, this film is a very lame rip-off of Jaws, Lake Placid, and Alligator, with a little bit of Godzilla (1998) thrown in.As is standard for a 1990's-style horror movie, the two non-starring females each take their clothes off at least once.
The whole movie surrounds the filming of a really dumb extreme sport called blood surfing, in which surfers cut themselves and surf in shark-infested waters.
Its about a crocodile that attack a view tourists as they are filming a documentary about "blood surfing".
A Movie about a bunch of some kind of filmmakers, who want to make a documentary on a new kind of surfing in shark-infested waters.
If it were only for the lack of talent between the actors, the embarrassingly stupid dialogs and the hilariously stupid crocodile, it would be at least worth a laugh, but it gets worse: I'd guess, the people in charge of this movie noticed how weak it was, so they though up the old idea of "sex sells"...
At the time, I thought it was pretty silly given the lack of a good script & some pretty mediocre visual effects (the crocodile looked pretty fake).
Well, yes & no.Blood Surf is a horror film for surfers.
The film even goes so far as to acknowledge its inspiration – "What's the name of that killer shark movie?" one surfer asks; "Jaws".
This film's first act is quite good.But once the crocodile begins attacking, Blood Surf quickly falls into the tired Jaws templater that it was billed as.
Here are the problems with "Blood Surf" -- 1) the killer crocodile looks like a kid's model with a retractable jaw.
There are a couple of redeeming qualities of "Blood Surf" -- the actresses are pretty attractive and Matt Borlenghi gets eaten by the croc towards the end of the movie.
Eccentrically plotted, unusually acted rip-off of any 'monster under water' film you could think of, from Creature from the Black Lagoon, to, well, Jaws, Piranha, Lake Placid, whatever.
they're all so generic) surfs right into the giant crocodile's mouth (no, that's not a spoiler - believe me, you'll see it coming from a MILE away), the other characters' reactions are so throwaway, so blase  - it's as if they just saw someone they didn't like step in a pile of dog doo, instead of getting killed.
The scene where Zack surfs into the crocodile, the attack on the LaFrance¡¦s boat, and the whole love plots in the middle are so stupid they should have been completely dropped from the film.
A group of documentary filmmakers head off to an island in order to film a documentary about surfing with sharks or blood surfing.
However, this is not the case as the blood surfing part of the movie is minimal due to the fact that their documentary is interrupted by a rather large salt-water crocodile.The script is absolutely terrible.
What probably seemed like a good idea at the time suffered from a terrible script and an overwhelming sense of low-budgetness which all served to create a truly awful movie.
