terrible... so disappointed.

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Sounds obviously bad, but give this chomping thriller a chance. Griff Furst directs this Syfy Channel Original; slack-jawed story with tragic acting and off and on dangerous looking graphics. Very watchable and fun. More believable than SHARKNADO.Quite a bit city and still full of Cajun, Avery Douchette (Jordan Hinson) returns home from the big city to still find her family feuding with the Robichauds; like they have for over a hundred years. There is a possibility a romance will be rekindled with Dathan Robichaud (John Chriss), but bad blood boils hotter with poached gators becoming an issue. Big trouble really thickens when a bad batch of blue dye colored moonshine is dumped in the bayou, causing some fierce "red neck' gators to go on the attack.Filmed near Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Other players include; Ritchie Montgomery, Jimmy Lee Jr., Shanna Forrestall, Thomas Francis Murphy, Isaiah LaBorde, Amy Brassette and Nicoye Banks.

I read GL84's nine star review and he is an idiot. This is another stupid Syfy movie. First how can bad moonshine mutate gators and not other species? Then there is the Romeo and Juliet aspect between two feuding families. One guy is in love with the daughter of the other side. The mutated creatures can whip some kind of killer stuff with their tails plus have some red coloration that I guess is suppose to come from the moonshine. Hence the redneck gator part of the title, I guess. This moonshine of course comes from one to the two feuding families. Now the two feuding maybe lovers go looking for the problem and gee they find it. My isn't it amazing that their boat manages to start when they need to rescue some family? Lucien's wife is a real piece of work. I did love the plan of distraction the guy had when he threw the mutt to the gator. While not PC it was really funny. The Gator Whisperer is another idiot but gets his. Unfortunately his entire crew gets hammered before that happens. Of course the bites are toxic and here it gets Syfy stupid. It turns out the bit turns the bitee into gator clones and everything gets even more stupid from there. I was glad to see a black man as the sheriff and he didn't die first. This is just a stupid unbelievable plot.

Cajun accents? They come, they go, they are never very good.Avery comes back to the swamp, to her family, after four years in college. She's a vegan now, which gives an extra layer of problems dealing with a hunting, carnivorous culture.Pluses: the gators have red necks and spiked tails.Minuses: bad banjo playing, bad accents, Avery's sudden, complete switch to 'kill them all' after she sees a giant gator kill someone she's known for years; more bad banjo playing; badly motivated clan feud, Doucette versus Robichaud; more blue tongues than were strictly needed.So, bad moonshine dumped in the swamp water seems to be changing the gators. People who eat the gator meat or get deep wound from live gators change into gators.After an early success against the gators, the two clans degenerate in to drunken stupidity again. The human-to-gator changes start.Avery's father had a gold tooth; his gator form has a gold fang. Avery catches that, just before he pulls her out of the quicksand. The non-biological gold tooth changing shape makes about as much sense as the humans turning into gators, or the moonshine doing the first conversion.One minute Avery is dead set against killing gators since they are probably her family. The next minute, she's killing three of them by blowing up a gas tank.In the end, about all the remaining Doucettes are gators, while the Robichauds are out to kill them. Avery tries to protect her father-turned-gator, but that is not to be.Cinematography: 10/10 Sharp.Sound: 10/10 Fine.Acting: 2/10 Mostly bad. Lines delivered badly, accents out of kilter. Candy was a hoot.Screenplay: 4/10 There's a story to tell, and it moves from beginning to middle to end. The gaffes mentioned above are hard to forget, however.

A movie this bad can't be a mistake...I'm going to assume that Syfy is doing this on purpose. If you thought "Ghost Shark" was scraping the bottom of the barrel, you obviously haven't seen this one. Other reviewers have covered the story line, so I won't repeat it all here. Just be warned that if you're a Louisiana Cajun, you'll be disgusted by the bad accents and EVERYONE will be disgusted by the "redneck" stereotypes including an inbred banjo player who thankfully gets eaten early in the movie. Believe it or not, there are one or two bright spots. The Candy Doucette character was great and I died laughing when her little dog got tossed into a gater's mouth as a diversion! The gater CGI was pretty good (by Syfy standards). There are lessons to be learned from this movie...stay away from bad moonshine!
