The B-Movie Cast is back! In this episode Mary and Nic are joined by Dr. Adrian Smith. Adrian takes a break from lecturing at the University of Sussex to help us figure out how many environmentalists does it take to kill one crocodile? The answer is one if it’s Anthony Crenna (yes, he’s Richard Crenna’s son) in the Italian 80s horror romp “Killer Crocodile”. We’re diving headfirst into the radioactive waters of an unnamed river in the Dominican Republic so we can see what happens when you want to rip off “Jaws” but can’t afford a mechanical shark. So, grab your Bat-anti-crocodile spray, a cold beverage, and join us as we take a bite out of “Killer Crocodile”.
