Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone looking to switch off and smile and anyone who enjoys a good scare. Best watched with the lights down and someone to grab. Fans of Slither should feel right at home.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr 14 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Rated R: meant for adults.
  • Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.

A meteor strikes a houseboat in the swamps near a southern town populated by Yankees with fake accents. The people on the houseboat become zombies who feed on the alligators in the swamp. Once they run out of alligators, they start going for the citizens. A local scientist tries to figure out what's happening to people once they start disappearing.
