Alligator (1980) Blu-Ray

101 Films presents Alligator on Blu-Ray in the UK for the first time. This is title 033A on 101 Films’ Black Label. 

This release includes both the Theatrical cut and the Alternate TV cut.

A B-movie masterpiece, Alligator remains a standout picture from the post 70s creature feature boom with surprising depth and an overtly critical take on the inaction on environmental issues of the time that is still relevant today.

From director Lewis Teague (Cujo) and screenwriter John Sayles (The Howling) comes an unstoppable thriller with bite. A family returning from Florida decides their pet baby alligator is too much to handle and flushes him down the toilet. Meanwhile, Slade Laboratories is conducting secret experiments with animals and disposing of them in the sewer. The alligator, fending for itself, begins to feed on the dead animals, and grows. Now, twelve years later, after several mysterious murders, David Madison (Robert Forster, Jackie Brown) is on the case to find out who... or what... is killing people.
