Lake Placid

Lake Placid (1999)
Dir: Steve Miner

When a diver is eaten alive by an unknown creature in a lake in Maine a group of experts must team up to investigate.
An intelligent and very funny monster movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. The acting is spot on and the cast really seem to be having fun with the witty script. It's well directed and the effects are good, but it's the performances that make the film so enjoyable.
