From the director who would later direct "Cujo" came a slightly larger set of jaws. Lewis Teague's film tells the rather fantastic story of an over-sized alligator that roams Chicago's sewerage system devouring unsuspecting victims.
The plot is not only ridiculous, it's poorly written in every respect, failing to balance out or gain any credibility. The music (very derivative of "Jaws") doesn't help much, nor does the pedestrian acting. This is a movie where all the bad guys get gobbled up, and the good guys become heroes.
Just when you thought it was safe to take a walk in the sewer, they release a movie like "Alligator". Real 'b-grade' stuff.
