If you loved Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, try Lake Placid
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Steve Miner, and they sit in Horror / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Lake Placid is
A motorboat idles on a misted Maine lake at dawn, propellers dripping blood. The warden arrives before the paleontologist and her rubber boots. A sonar blip blooms into teeth in open water. Steve Miner’s 90s creature feature knows the joke before the first scream.
