Two years ago, a pair of thirty foot-long prehistoric crocodiles terrorized the residents of Lake Placid. While most of the locals assumed that the nightmare had ended when the murderous creatures were killed, local crocodile lover Sadie (Cloris Leachman) knows that the truth is far more terrifying. Beneath the surface of Lake Placid, the remaining predators have been quietly reproducing, awaiting the moment they will emerge from the water and cement their status on the top of the food chain. Now, as Sheriff Riley's rebellious teenage son (Shad Collins) departs for a relaxing lakeside camping trip, the desperate father realizes the danger that lies beneath the surface and races to confront a prehistoric predator that won't stop until it's consumed every last local. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Just awful. Totally non-sensical, poorly made and mostly boring.

    After the timid and tedious Black Water this was the exact shot of Croc needed to lift spirits. Essentially a remake of the original with all the hilarious banter replaced with hilariously bad CGI and acting. It's a pleasant waste of time, the sort of film you laugh at and enjoy ... read morelaughing at. There are a few glaring mistakes in the script and a bizarre rabbit sub-plot or something but hell there's also plenty of senseless kills and many boobies.

    Pretty terrible, but I was in the mood for killer crocodiles. The film makers must have known it was bad, because the DVD actually has a feature where you can watch the movie where they fast forward to all the nudity, death scenes and one-liners.

    Lake Flaccid 2 is nothing more than typical SciFi Channel garbage with the worst CG I've seen since...well since the last SciFi Channel movie.

    An even lower budget sequel to the cult original. Very poor acting and dialogue but the worst part is the ropey CGI effects! If you like cheesey B movie horrors that turn out to be quite funny you might enjoy this, similar to Frankenfish, Crocodile.

    This sequel of giant crocodiles is boring and not very scary enough to me as well as the CGI of the big ugly creatures look poorly and lots of mistake in the scenes. What a waste!

    Don't bother...wasn't worth the film it was produced on. Cloris Leachman shouln't have even bothered even identifying herself as the sister of Betty White....Ew! Low and BELOW budget cheaply made...

    Crap.
  • March 17, 2012
    Cloris Leachman's zany sister to Betty White's character from the first Lake Placid saves this from being a total bust... but it's still not very good.
  • June 27, 2011
    Everything that was great about the original Lake Placid is gone... replaced by awfulness that would make the SyFy channel programming department cry in agony.

As typically second-rate as one might've anticipated... Full Review

In my opinion, there can never be too many giant crocodile movies. Full Review

The producers forgot that you shouldn't hint at a sequel if you're not sure anybody will want one. And judging from this limp, cheesy franchise entry, nobody will. Full Review

Follow the basic "killer croc" template if you must, fellas, but jeez, would it kill you to try something even remotely different? Full Review
