Captivating movie !

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This movie essentially begins with 3 poachers in the Australian Outback taking a small boat into a lake at night to hunt crocodiles. Although they manage to kill the first two they come across, the third crocodile is much larger than anything they have ever seen and it capsizes the boat and kills two of them. This results in a park ranger named "Steve Harris" (John Jarratt) taking two aborigines in a boat to find it. Unfortunately, tracking it down becomes much harder than he suspects and if that wasn't bad enough local politics and prejudice hamper his efforts even more. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this movie had a pretty good premise to operate from but I thought that the director (Arch Nicholson) got a bit carried away with the clash of cultures between the whites and the aborigines which seemed to permeate the entire course of the movie. Likewise, proscribing some kind of spiritual mystique on the large crocodile was somewhat cheesy as well. That being said, I have rated this film accordingly. Slightly below average.

A giant crocodile is killing and eating river poachers and small kids from the river banks.John Jarratt of "Wolf Creek" fame plays park ranger who is a big protector of crocodiles as well.The local aborigines see this bloodthirsty crocodile as a sacred reptile called "Numunwari" and they want to transfer the beast to its proper upriver.Arch Nicholson's "Dark Age" is a well-made and suspenseful animal attack flick which owes a lot to "Jaws".The killing of small aboriginal kid is quite shocking with its unexpected brutality.The croc itself looks realistic and menacing enough and the attack scenes are surprisingly vicious.The film is also rich in aboriginal myths and symbolism as it poses few important environmental questions.Can't wait to see Arch Nicholson's "Fortress".8 crocs out of 10.

The plot was disjointed... and the story even jumped ahead a year without warning... had to figure it out yourself... strange because it was already not the most together plot.Why do B movies always have a scene where the couple fights like cats and dogs and then ends up with making love?? This one did it... but it was more like they felt the movie needed a nude scene and didn't quite know how to get there.I found it very interesting that the "monster" croc kept shifting from being a fresh water croc with a thin pointy snout... to a salt water croc with a wider deeper snout.Watch it if all there is on besides is reruns of Dallas

This monster crocodile film is pretty good.If you can find it would be a good collector's video because its a hard one to obtain.If you find it get it!Its not boring,it has some good scenes and a different ending and should satisfy most horror fans!
