Alligator Horror Flick 'THE FLOOD' Gets Rated "R" For “Violence” and “Gore”

We truly dig creature features and one that has us ready for some alligator mayhem is coming from Saban Films and Lionsgate in ‘THE FLOOD’. The film has been given an official rating by the MPA and we can share it with you now…

The Flood has been Rated “R” for… “Violence, some gore, and language throughout.”

The action-horror movie hits Theaters, On Demand and Digital on July 14, 2023. The premise suggests a SYFY-style monster movie – alligators inside a prison – but the execution looks a lot closer to Alexandre Aja’s Crawl than anything you’d find on the SYFY network.

Think Crawl meets Assault on Precinct 13.

The Flood is directed by Brandon Slagle (Frost, The Dawn) and co-written by Chad Law (Section 8, Close Range, 6 Bullets) and Josh Ridgway (The Sector, Howlers).

Check out the official trailer for the flick below.

In the film, “A horde of giant hungry alligators is unleashed on a group of in-transit prisoners and their guards after a massive hurricane floods Louisiana.”

Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers, Alita: Battle Angel, Sleepy Hollow), Nicky Whelan (Hall Pass, Halloween II) and Louis Mandylor (Rambo: Last Blood, Suckers) star.
