A small town, desperate to recover from hard economic times, is under threat when voracious Snakehead fish mutate and survive previous lake chemical poisonings. The fish transform from pests to predators when human growth hormones are dumped into the local lake in the hopes of reviving the local fishing industry. Thriving on the hormones, the Snakehead fish grow to monstrous proportions, devouring everything within reach. Capable of moving and eating on land, they are forced to leave the now barren lake in a desperate search for food - animal, vegetable or human.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

By the end of the movie I felt like such a huge waste of time watching this movie. It is so pointless and absolutely absurd. A story of a small town sheriff tried to solve the mystery of how the Snakehead fish grew so big that they start attacking human.Everything about this movie is dreadful, from the cast that is typical B grade animal attack movie, to the cheap shot directing, to the weird music, to the acting, bad CGI and to the script that absolutely contain nothing but fish that walk on land and outwit human before attacking them.Though I must admit this is not the worst movie of its kind, the movie still does consist little excitement though like I said before very absurd but that one must really expect when they are trying to watch B Grade action movie.My verdict: I'll never watch this movie again. Not worth your time.Reason To Watch: Chelan Simmons and When You Have Absolutely Nothing To Do.Reason Not To: There Are Loads Of Better Movie Out There.Rating: 3/10 (Grade: F).

No way, a small seaside resort, some lethal murder fish killing innocent campers, fishers and tourists, an old sheriff and lots of underwater hassle... no, not Jaws, Part 26 again, but Snakehead, a new kind of killer fish, is striking this time.The monster is a bunch of chemically mutilated shellfish with Piranha teeth that can also live underwater as creeping on land and kills everything from dogs to curious campers or stupid, drunken teenagers during their funny beach parties... and now it's Sheriff Bruce Boxleitner's turn to fight the creeping death and a skeptical mayor, accompanied by beautiful Carol Alt.Okay, there are some really thrilling and shocking moments, but also too many fish horror standards from classics like Jaws up to contemporary copies like Lake Placid (such as point-of-view cameras and even a rip-off of John Williams' Jaws theme). Some moments are even too ridiculous and over the top and would rather fit into a Scary Movie comedy, just like a bunch of killer fish (that sometimes look like snakes or mini alligators) attacking the driver of a car or some girls in a block house by eating wholes into the wood. But if you are out for some simple underwater horror action, this flick is for you.

This movie is one of the most unintentionally funny movies I have ever seen. Flagrant use of poor CGI and muppets make the movie hysterical. Beyond that, the main characters are pitifully incompetent at anything. You wonder just how stupid they are. The characters continue to ignore obvious solutions to tight situations and escape certain death with ridiculous ploys.Don't get me wrong. I loved this movie. I was in hysterics throughout the entire thing. Mutant fish puppets attacking a bumbling populace is quite a sight to see. Midway through the film, a man is spied by our sheriff to be emptying a container of liquid into the lake. He looks through his binoculars, and sees that the words "HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE" are printed on the side of the container in friendly red letters. One could think that you could not possibly beat that moment of pure ludicrousness, but the movie easily surpasses it in an insanely funny climax.This movie is destined to be the cult classic of cult classics.

Although this movie is predictable and hokey, it is based on a real, live fish: the Northern Snakehead. This fish does indeed "walk" on land and breathes air in addition to filtering water through gills. This part, at least, is true. This fish has become the bane to many a concerned biologist's existence on the East coast. Although this movie, as do many of this nature, exaggerates the ferocity of the Northern Snakehead (it only devours fish, especially it's competitor the large mouth bass) it's still diverting to watch. "Snakehead Terror" is filled with empty-headed teens, stubborn adults, and the know-it's-going-to happen pairing of a "tough manly" man and a "sexy but intelligent" woman. If looking for information on the subject of Invasive Exotics, this movie is NOT for you.
