LAKE PLACID (1999). Decent enough flick although the location for a cold blooded reptile is suspect...the water is freezing. Mysterious happenings involve local agencies (most who come off as ignorant yahoos) and eccentric scientific types teaming up to either capture or kill the menace. It takes some patience to get involved in the story-Bridget Fonda's character expends lot of energy complaining, but the FX are better than You would expect and Betty White is a hoot as a foulmouthed widow who may be involved in more that is suspect. ***
