A Couple Steps Up from "So Bad, It's Good" Territory

Honestly one of the better ones. The CGI is still hilarious, but not outrageously so, and the acting isn't too painful overall. Genre vet Robert Englund is a treasure and continues to elevate everything he's in, including this entry in the series. Elisabeth Röhm also turns in a performance that is way better than a SyFy Channel production deserves.

The kills are fairly well executed, although the plot, pacing, and setting are average...but given we're on part 4 of this series, that's more or less to be expected. I only stopped by and stayed for Englund, and thanks to his cheeky, Quint-esque character, found myself snickering throughout.

Lake Placid: "The Final Chapter" (lol, when is any film labeled "The Final Chapter" actually the final film in the franchise?) is pretty good for what it is and a decent SyFy movie to have on the in the background while you complete menial tasks. The last few minutes are especially fun. If you're a sci-fi/horror fan, I say dive in.

5.5/10
