Rogue (2007)
8/10
One of the best crocodile horror film.
26 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The film starts n ends with the camera zooming in on a newspaper article regarding giant crocodiles. The initial scene of the newspaper cutting is very disturbing n scary regarding a 12 year old devoured wholly by a giant crocodile.

The film is about a group of tourists in Australia who fall prey to a giant, man-eating crocodile after they venture far off into the creature's territory. They take shelter on a mud island which is slowly submerging cos the river being a tidal one. The film has beautiful cinematography of the Northern territory of Australia. This is a must watch for horror fans. This is one of the best horror film about a giant crocodile.

Character of Mitchell surving n the lead actor landing coincidentally at the exact place where Mitchell is lying is way too over the top. We have a Jason Clarke lookalike, an overweight one with a funky tshirt. I recognized Robert Taylor (Storm Warning). Didn't recognize Sam Worthington that time. We also have John Jarratt (Wolf Creek) in a not so memorable role. Director McLean created some solid tension with enuff kills. I first saw this in 2008 on a dvd which I own. Revisited it recently.
