Full Moon Features has released the trailer for a ridiculous-looking horror-comedy titled Bad CGI Gator. The movie, which seems like a bad joke, sees a group of college kids on Spring Break who end up being attacked by a bad CGI alligator that is created when a laptop computer is thrown into a lake that electrocutes an alligator.
Here’s the synopsis: “Six college grads on Spring Break get a cabin in the swamplands of Georgia. Once there, they decide to throw their school laptops in a backyard lake in an act of youthful defiance, which unknowingly turns a lurking alligator into the dreaded and insatiable… Bad CGI Gator!”
Charles Band, CEO and founder of Full Moon Features, said in a statement: “I’ve long been against the overuse of CGI in genre films, and in many ways, this movie is a fun, tongue-in-cheek antidote to that. When done right, CGI is a great tool to accent special effects. When done wrong…well, we get Bad CGI Gator! Get ready!”
Sure, I get what they are doing here, and the movie knows exactly what it is, and while some people might enjoy it, I just can’t waste my time on it. Time is too precious.
Bad CGI Gator will premiere on Amazon Prime Video and FullMoonfeatures.com on November 24th. Who’s going to watch this thing!?
