The Crater Lake Monster is AWESOME!

Not only was this movie not shot in Crater Lake, but its got a Sheriff who drives a green station wagon, random head severing, awesome stop motion animation, bad rubber props, a meteorite, a waitress with a hot ass, two homoerotic boat rental guys, a dude in a white suit who looks kinda like Eric Idle and effects from the guy who did Equinox.

Frazetta-esque poster art!

I love Crown Internation - a true sign of quality!

This movie also has a cave with some drawings that a scientist says are proof that dinosaurs didn't die off, it has some random scuba diving, a pontoon boat, a liquor store robbery, some shoot outs, and a monster vs. bulldozer finale!

I made that documentary 3 years ago when I went to Crater Lake.

I went to Crater Lake once. It was awesome but there were no monsters.

Only the one in your pants? You'd stumble off drunkenly to take a wiz and we'd hear you shout, "RELEASE THE KRACKEN!!" from the shadows.

I get mad at the guy that robs the liquor store and only takes a small bottle of booze. Judging by the booze bottles around his house, he's gonna have to go rob it again tomorrow.

Plan ahead, douche!

My Kracken is not to be triffled with.

Paul you raise a good point - that robber was a moron. He should have cleaned the place out.

Oh, forgot to mention that this thread was the first time I had ever seen the poster for this movie. It's fuckin' awesome.

I can't believe that this thread not only convinced me that the Crater Lake Monster is awesome but that I now need to pick up a Mill Creek blu-ray.

It's cheap enough and of decent enough quality that you can't go wrong. It's a horrible film, but a whole lotta fun and the dude who did Equinox handled the stop motion on it so it's got some pretty legit effects.
