Review of The Flood

The Flood (I) (2023)
1/10
Has To Be The Worst Gator-Based Horror Ever Made.
18 July 2023
This has got to be the worst alligator based horror film ever made.

You can tell it was one of those one-line high concept pitches that Netflix is infamous for.

With the concept being something along the lines of Con Air meets Lake Placid, only, in a prison, instead of an airplane (or, alternatively...like Snakes On A Plane...only with alligators in a jail).

Because an airplane was clearly not in the budget.

The entire concept is idiotic.

A group of prisoners are being transported during a hurricane, near New Orleans, where they get re-routed to a local jail. There, a plan is hatched to break out one of the inmates...however, both operations get interrupted by an infestation of insatiably murderous alligators, who have been washed into the prison as a result of flooding from the hurricane.

But how exactly they have managed to infiltrate the jail, never really makes sense.

So, the fact that the gators are rendered with some of the worst CGI since Birdemic...alongside the awful acting...moronic script...and idiotic plot.

Give this film the three strikes it needs to be relegated to the dustbin of internet streaming service history.

Because it is absolute trash.

It's only redeeming quality is that the white trash Nazi character gets his comeuppance.

But that sure isn't enough to save it.

Steer well clear of this one...because it's not the backed up sewage that is stinking up the room here.
