Here's an interesting movie series.  Most of the films revolve around some sort of killer creature or beast, real or imaginary that people.  Here's a quick list:

+ Sand Serpents
+ The Hive
+ Shark Swarm
+ Croc
+ Maneater

Here's an Amazon Listing of the Movies as Well: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss?url=node%3D163396&field-keywords=Maneater+Series&x=10&y=22

If you've seen any of these movies, what would you recommend and which ones should be avoided?  I've seen Shark Swarm and I have anger issues over that.

My favorite so far has been Eye of the Beast

Worst: Grizzly Rage & Shark Swarm

Hybrid was pretty bad too.

In the Spider's Web, Swamp Devil, Black Swarm, BloodMonkey, Maneater and The Hive were ok.

Croc had its moments.

Not seen the others yet.

Grizzly isn't too bad; especially the part where the bear attacks a little boy!

That's Grizzly from the 70s.  The Grizzly from the Maneaters series is called Grizzly Rage and it is different (As far as I know).

Hybrid - terrible.  I honestly didn't watch too much of it, so maybe I missed the good part.
Blood Monkey - not too bad.  Not too good either, but if you're bored some night, it's an enjoyable waste of 90 minutes.
In The Spider's Web - Okay.  I wouldn't really recommend it, but it won't cause you any pain.
Mammoth - this is sort of a comedy.  It wasn't my cup of tea, maybe others would find it amusing.
Yeti - I thought this was horrible.
The Hive - I really liked this one!  Entertaining, cheesy, and it's got Bo Duke in it.
Peter Benchley's Creature - this isn't too bad.  It's got higher production values than the other movies on this list.  It's pretty slow moving, but not a bad monster movie overall.

Oh!  I'd never HEARD of this Maneater series.. I thought maybe you just meant a particular genre of films.  Never mind. :tongueout:
