A troubled teen finds his way back on track by following the gridiron in this romantic sports comedy starring Riley Smith and Meredith Monroe. Matt Sabo (Smith) just can't seem to find his path in life, but when a run-in with the law leaves him with the choice of stewing behind bars or attending an all-star football camp, the pigskin begins to take priority. If Sabo can change his attitude and make good on the gridiron, it could mean a full-ride scholarship at the college of his choice, and when a beautiful young woman named Amy (Monroe) comes into his life his priorities all seem to come into focus. His troubles aren't over yet though, and when Amy comes clean with a confession about her own past, the repercussions threatens to destroy them both. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
Danny Shaffer (Jim Metzler) used to be a poet. He's settled down now, and is a regular businessman living in L.A. His girlfriend has recently split with him to move to Berlin. Apparently, she wanted him to come with her, because she has sent two German emissaries, Barbara and Ingrid, to bring videotaped messages from her and see to it that he watches them. There are plenty of suggestions that sexual intimacies might be forthcoming from the unexpected visitors, but nothing transpires along those lines. Despite the unpromising storyline, reviewers found this festival film well enough made to hold their attention. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

Not so much a sequel to the John Sayles-scripted Alligator as a shoddy remake, this sophomoric low-budget effort plays like a bad TV movie about a swamp-dwelling alligator mutated to monstrous size by toxic waste, munching on the screaming residents of a lakefront community. The naughty polluter who caused this mutation is the property developer himself (Steve Railsback, playing such a cookie-cutter villain that he might as well have a "BAD GUY" sign around his neck). An embarrassed Joseph Bologna plays the cop investigating the mutilation murders; an equally-ashamed Dee Wallace Stone plays the scientist assisting him, who is conveniently married to him as well. In an attempt to remedy the situation, a big-game hunter (Richard Lynch) is called in to bag the beast. When his efforts fail, it's left to Bologna to pick up the pieces -- literally -- and take charge of the situation when the big reptile decides to take in the grand opening of the local amusement park. From a nonsensical script to cheesy special effects that make the beast look like a pool toy, this film shows none of the cynical charm and sly wit that made Alligator so enjoyable. ~ Cavett Binion, All Movie Guide

When a monster named Armageddon (David Marriott) is sent to destroy earth, he begins at a high school, giving out appropriate punishment to a jock and a nerd. It's up to the good guy (Dean Iandoli) to defeat the monster by any means necessary. ~ John Bush, All Movie Guide
