A terrifying horror film by the brilliant Tobe Hooper

In the Deep South of the United States, a young prostitute finds refuge in the Starlight Hotel, a shabby old building on the edge of the swamps. Its owner, Judd, is a simple-minded eccentric who has a pet crocodile from Africa. The young woman does not know that Judd is actually a dangerous psychopath who murders all the hotel guests to feed his crocodile...

Filmed two years after the cult Texas Chainsaw Massacre , The Crocodile of Death marks the reunion between director Tobe Hooper and the freaks of deep America. All the ingredients are there for a perfect gory horror film: a sticky atmosphere, a scary soundtrack and a frightening cast including Robert Englund (before his role as Freddy Krueger) and William Finley ( Phantom of the Paradise ). A pure moment of terror and madness to rediscover in its new restoration!
