When a shipment of illegal drugs is dumped into a small Southern town’s water supply, it leads to an unintended and terrifying consequence—a massive alligator becomes addicted to methamphetamine. As the drug-crazed gator wreaks havoc on the local community, Sheriff Hank (Christopher McDonald) must rally a ragtag team, including wildlife biologist Dr. Emily Crane (Tara Reid), the quirky Deputy Carl (Michael Peña), and swamp expert Old Joe (Danny Trejo), to stop the creature before it turns the town into its personal hunting ground.

From hilarious encounters to heart-stopping moments of suspense, the team faces increasingly bizarre challenges as they venture deep into the swamps to confront the unpredictable Meth Gator.
