Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRoger Corman approached the SyFy channel with an idea for a sequel, which they turned down for fear of it being a total bomb, so Corman scrapped it until 2007 when it was reintroduced as a new film called Supergator, which he produced. as well as the 2010 sequel to both films, Dinocroc vs. Supergator.
- GoofsIn the film's opening title sequence, the newspaper snippets say "archaeologist" when in actuality it is paleontologists, not archaeologists, who deal with fossil crocodiles.
- Quotes
Dr. Campbell: What about the one that escaped?
Paula Kennedy: You said yourself these specimen have a limited lifespan
Dr. Campbell: Oh, we don't know that for sure. There's been progress with each successive test. There's no reason not to expect this one to reach full maturity.
Paula Kennedy: I've got some calls to make.

Featured review
An experiment escapes.
This is a low budget Roger Corman horror/creature flick. A DinoCroc is created when manipulation of prehistoric genes runs amok. An engineered croc first kills one of its own then gets the taste of human and becomes a fast growing terror after escaping. None of the characters have any depth, but then they are not the focal point. We only get a few glimpses of the huge two-legged dinosaur descendant and some of the best "kill" scenes in a small budget film.
My favorite scene is of a moronic character trying to use a three legged dog for bait and becomes croc food himself. Nothing left on the pier but ankle top feet. With no real stand out roles: Jane Longendecker, Bruce Weitz and Charles Napier. Most pathetic is Matt Borlenghi and an obnoxious professional croc hunter Costas Mandylor. I was most impressed with the alluring Joanna Pacula as the respectfully feared Dr. P. DINOCROC is redeeming as a crock of pickles.
