May 18, 2014Released 14 years after 'Gator Bait, 'Gator Bait II: Cajun Justice just couldn't quite muster the charm that the first one had. It was watchable, but a little disappointing in comparison. This one started with the brother from the first movie (the one who didn't have a tongue and couldn't speak) getting married to a city girl out in the swamps. Well, in this movie he spoke just fine, and there was no mention of the fact that he couldn't before. So we press on and forget about that. While on their honeymoon, one of the bad guys who died in the first movie came back to get the new bride and rape her with his new gang of idiots. They sort of tried to explain how he was still alive, but I wasn't buying it. So now we've got two glaring inconsistencies and I'm starting to wonder if the people who made both movies ever bothered to watch the first one to see what happened in it before making a sequel. But again, we press on. This is where the action heats up. The husband gets shot and left for the alligators to eat, and the wife gets kidnapped. When one of her captors shows the tiniest sign of having a conscience and helps her escape, she quickly learns the swamp skills necessary to survive not only in the wild but also while being pursued by a mob of merciless imbeciles. I'd call it worth watching once to say you've seen it, but only after you've seen the first movie.
