Lake Placid vs Anaconda TONIGHT on Syfy

[turtlefanforever]

the name alone says it all. That's all the reasoning you need to watch this movie. 2 of the greatest Animal horror films of all time (Lake Placid, Anaconda) with some of the worst sequels of all time (anaconda 3: Offspring, LAke placid 2, Lake Placid 3, Lake Placid: The final chapter) face off for the first time in a made for tv horror movie on Syfy.

it starts at 9pm here but i'm east coast so check your local listings.

This is like the MECA of Syfy movies. i'm probably way more excited than i should be and i know it's gonna be horrible but i just HAVE to watch it.

PS Horror Legend Robert England(AKA Freddy Krueger) is the main character, if this sheer name power wasn't enough to get you to watch it.

how did you not get pumped about this? lol. THe only returning characters were Robert Englund & Yancy Butler from Lake Placid 3&4 unless there was some from anaconda i didn't pick up on. It was basically a Lake Placid Sequel the anacondas weren't features much the only really tie in to the old movies is they mentioned the Blood orchid a lot.

All in all it was on Par with Syfy flicks, but i just HAD to watch cause of the name value alone. You never see two "big" horror franchises crossover. or 2 horror franchises crossover in general. But both were 'big' in the 90s so just couldn't resist.

Well I don't watch that many SyFi movies to begin with and I don't watch anaconda. Terrible fear of snakes as it is.

But as far as horror film crossovers go, I'd rather watch Freddy vs Jason. And I barely like that one.

well obviously. There are better ones like Freddy vs Jason & Alien vs Predator. But in the 90s they were both relevant horror flicks with relative success. Cool to see them crossover. even if it's horrible

anything on SyFy is stupid. There movies are so lame and unoriginal its hilarious.

haha well I think the fact that this exists just goes to show how rock bottom both franchises hit. And if anything horror movies are the ones that have the most crossovers out of any movie genre so it shouldn't be a big surprise. Only ever saw the first anaconda movie and found it a bit boring but hey if someone is a fan of both franchises and they got excited with this crossover then more power to them, I'd love to get a dream crossover even if I'm the only one excited of those two franchises crossing over. I'm all for people liking things even if I have no interest whatsoever.

Anaconda one of the BEST animal horror films?! :teek: Sorry but I have to disagree. The effects and physics of the snake actually made it one of the WORST. It was so unrealistic in the way it moved and how fast it was that I literally shook my head and groaned through half the movie. Considered walking out of the theater after only 20 minutes. If you want a truly terrifying animal horror flick that is actually realistic in plausible behavior and senario, the original Pirhana is where it's at. That movie made me nervous about swimming in lakes and gave me nightmares for days..... (It is old, but still holds up as classic animal horror.)
