I call shenanigans! Part 2

I watch too much MTV, and as a byproduct, I often see too many stupid commercials for stupid movies aimed at teenyboppers who apparently have lost all sense of taste.

As a result, I've been seeing commercials for a horror flick called Primeval, which is tagged as "Inspired by the TRUE STORY of the most prolific serial killer in history."

Apparently Gustave (the killer) has racked up over 300 kills -- more than Jack the Ripper and other nortorious murderers. Even better -- this killer has never been caught!

Of course my curiousity took over and what did I find out -- Gustave is a crocodile. Now if the movie actually contains the scene described in Wikipedia -- "The croc chases them around with a sawn-off shotgun" -- I might have to see it for that alone. But I have a feeling that no matter what, there's going to be a bunch of disappointed teens going to see this movie because of the deceptive ads.

"The croc chases them around with a sawn-off shotgun".

I'm getting "Snakes On A Plane" flashbacks as we speak. Misty, watercolored memories...
