Alligator (1980)
surprisingly good creature feature that was one of many that sprang up after Jaws. police detective is sent to investigate when dismembered bodies are found, the detective soon finds out its the work of 40 foot gator living in the sewers, he is not taking seriously until more bodies turn up and its got on film, but not long after this he is fired as the gator is linked to a corporation whos owner has the mayor in his pocket, a big game hunter is then hired to kill the beast but its not long before he becomes a snack and ouR heroic ex cop and a female scientist set out to track it down and kill it. while not as good as jaws its a lot better than most of the jaws rip offs the followed in its wake, likable and interesting characters and its a lot more gory than jaws was even going so far as a small child is eaten . 8/10
K-9
the usual cop buddy story with the difference of one of them being a dog called jerry lee. Cop Michael Dooley ( (James Belushi) is hunting rich businessman who is also a drug overlord. getting a tip that drugs are in the businessman's warehouse he gets himself a police dog to check out the warehouse. from here on Dooley and Jerry Lee team up to take down him down. the comedy comes mostly from the developing relationship between dog and man. 7.2/10
now watching on of my favorite films of 2016 Deadpool
