The premise
A small town, desperate to recover from hard economic times, is under threat when voracious Snakehead fish mutate and survive previous lake chemical poisonings. The fish transform from pests to predators when human growth hormones are dumped into the local lake in the hopes of reviving the local fishing industry. Thriving on the hormones, the Snakehead fish grow to monstrous proportions, devouring everything within reach. Capable of moving and eating on land, they are forced to leave the now barren lake in a desperate search for food - animal, vegetable or human.
Horror Vault's take
When a struggling lakeside town makes a reckless gamble to inject human growth hormones into local waters, it unleashes something far worse than a failing fishing economy. Invasive snakehead fish balloon into massive, ravenous predators capable of hunting both in the water and on dry land. With the lake stripped bare, the creatures turn their attention to the town itself, and the locals must fight for survival against a horror entirely of their own making. This low-budget TV creature feature leans into pulpy, B-movie energy with its outlandish but entertainingly earnest premise.
