Synapse Films/DiabolikDVD Limited Slipcover Exclusive In Celebration of the 48th Anniversary of JAWS!

Only 1500 Slipcovers Available!

If you only see one Taiwanese/Korean JAWS rip-off in your lifetime, CROCODILE is definitely the one to see. This late 70s nature-run-amok epic was a favorite of many video stores in the early days of VHS (due in no small part due to its terrific poster art) and has been one of Synapse Films’ most in-demand titles for nearly a decade. Now, on this 48th anniversary of JAWS (the film that “inspired” it), Synapse Films brings this giant monster gem to Blu-ray looking and sounding better – and more giant – than ever in an all-new 2K restoration!

There is a giant crocodile on the loose! Mutating and getting larger, possibly because of an atomic explosion, the crocodile’s thirst for blood also grows as it rampages through a small quiet beach town devouring anything in its path.

Dr. Akom and Dr. Stromm are on a perfect family vacation, but it takes a tragic turn when three of their loved ones suddenly disappear. When the bodies are found, the two doctors conduct a thorough examination of the remains and discover a killer crocodile is the culprit. Teaming up with Tanaka, a tough and rugged fisherman, Akom and Stromm head out to dangerous open waters to find and destroy the beast once and for all!

This killer croc classic, originally filmed in 1978 as Crocodile Fangs (Agowa gongpo), was released in slightly different versions all around the world during its theatrical run. Synapse Films is proud to present the Blu-ray world-premiere of Crocodile in its original U.S. release version, meticulously restored from the original English 35mm camera negative.

– Original theatrical trailer
