Tobe Hoopers Eaten Alive (1976), starring Neville Brand and Robert Englund, follows a deranged hotel owner in rural Texas who feeds his victims to a giant crocodile lurking in a swamp. Shot after The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, it blends Southern Gothic grime, creature horror, and exploitation violence, earning cult status as one of Hoopers most notorious grindhouse films. Arrow Films Nearly a decade before he donned Freddy Krueger s famous red and green sweater, horror icon Robert Englund delivered a supremely sleazy performance in Eaten Alive another essay in taut Southern terror from Tobe Hooper, director of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Deep in the Louisiana bayou sits the ramshackle Starlight Hotel, destination of choice for those who like to check in but not check out! Bumbling Judd, the patron of this particular establishment, may seem like a good-natured ol Southern gent but he has a mean temper on him, and a mighty large scythe to boot... Oozing atmosphere from its every pore (the entire film was shot on a sound-stage which lends it a queasy, claustrophobic feel), Eaten Alive matches The Texas Chain Saw Massacre for sheer insanity helped in no small part by some marvellous histrionics from Chain Saw star Marilyn Burns and William Finley (Phantom of the Paradise). Från IMDB: Psychotic redneck Judd owns a dilapidated hotel in rural East Texas, where he murders people who upset him or his business, and then feeds their remains to his large pet crocodile in the swamp beside his hotel.
