Il Fiume Del Grande Caimano Synopsis & Summary

Synopsis

Il Fiume del Grande Caimano a low budget, monster-on-the-loose Italian horror film provides more chuckles than goosebumps in all but the least-sophisticated viewer. Joshua (Mel Ferrer) is a businessman who allows his greed to overcome his misgivings when he builds a resort on the turf of an alligator god. Alice (Barbara Back) and Daniel (Claudio Cassinelli) come to the aid of the terrorized tourists and help them all escape. This film, directed by Sergio Martino and released under a variety of names including Alligators, The Big Caimano River, and Big Alligator River has bad special effects and poor acting despite its very attractive cast. Fans of horror films should look elsewhere. - Linda Rasmussen, All Movie Guide
