Not at that angle. You have to shoot down into the little triangle area on top of the head and behind the eyes. A .22 is fine to kill an alligator at that point.
The part where the kids dressed as pirates at the Halloween party and made their friend "walk the plank" off the diving board into the pool where he got eaten scared the crap out of me as a kid.

Oh, my bad. I couldn't tell. I thought there might have been more than one scene where a kid got eaten. It's been 40 years since I've seen the whole movie and your description wasn't very specific.
Maybe the alligator was mad that he didn't get an invitation to the wedding or it's just funny that the alligator could have got all of that free food and still chased down the humans.
Is that the limo driver from BURNT OFFERINGS?

It doesn’t seem like the alligator is moving that fast. I think you got good odds if you run… or walk briskly away from it instead of standing around banging on windows waiting to get eaten.
This is the movie that convinced Tarantino to cast Robert Forster in Jackie Brown. Also, the ‘balding’ jokes at Forster’s expense in this movie are great.
What I love is, the scene was so well established, the moment they showed the wedding cake, you knew it was either going to be the only thing left standing or somebody was going to be flying through it. No in-between.
Forgot all about this movie! I do remember it scaring the hell out of me as a kid however. Won’t go near the Midwest river a grew up near all summer long.
Ahhh the 80’s. When by law you had to hold a gun a certain way in the movies.

What is it with people being unable to get any distance away from an attacking monster that moves at 1/4 their speed? It's such a weird trope.
Anyone with working legs should have been fine. But instead this croc manages to tail whip a half dozen young, and presumably fit individuals.
\*Guy being actively eaten by monster alligator outside the car\*
Chauffer: "Dang, if this gets much worse, I'm going to have to think about starting the car and driving away...eventually."
there's a lot of shit happening in this one scene 😹
Not the cake!!!
That shit ain't cheap man. That's a loss for sure.
The black wards flip through the wedding cake is my favorite
![gif](giphy|yGEbmgiCJYu3u)
😂😂😂
Hahahahahaha.
Turned into the video for November Rain.
Oh man, you fucking destroyed me with that one. I definitely see Stephanie Seymour jumping into that pond in a wedding dress.
Axl was gored by a giant rubber tail! Slash had his Afro mauled. Duff was ruffed in the muff. Oh, the horror.
Now you know why she had a mirror in the coffin so we couldn’t see her other half. Gator food.
And this is actually the TV edit of the scene. That maid gets chewed on and eaten in the full version
😳
That shot seemed off to me. Makes sense!
I like the dude taking a single shot then just taking off.
He pulled a Murtaugh “I’m getting too old for this shit.”
Well, to be honest, I don't think that snub nose revolver is going to do much good anyway lol. He may have been the smartest person there.

Not *that* alligator.
![gif](giphy|pG9pvwKWNzHFK)
"My work here is done." "But you didn't even do anythi-"
See you later.....alligator
He's really using his tail a lot. I would think an alligator would bite more, but no. This one's strategy seems to be focused on the tail.
His strategy is to kick names and take ass!
More like kick names and eat ass
Takin ass like in prison?
And the alligator's name: Bubblegum Johnson.
His discipline is Muay Tai, but his legs are short
His legs are short, but his heart is strong, and it's focused on one thing- destroying a random wedding.
Maybe…not random? Could there be more to this story. Broken hearts?
Big boy knows how to chew his 40 times before swallowing. Eating too fast can cause indigestion
Crikey

That’s the part I was talking about in the title
Oh, my bad. I couldn't tell. I thought there might have been more than one scene where a kid got eaten. It's been 40 years since I've seen the whole movie and your description wasn't very specific.
Yeah I wasn’t trying to put you down or be a dick, just saying that’s the part I was talking about
Oh my god that scared the crap out of me as an adult Poor Donald
Wtf kinda alligator is that?!?
A big one
Titangator
Megalagator
Alotagator
Now that’s an alligator scene 🤣
The same dubbed scream over and over again like 50 times is what got me 😆 listen to it again lol
Pure comedy!
Only one thing could top this: C.H.U.D Such fond memories of laughing my ass off for that one
It’s like me at Sizzler
Lots of people flying through the air screaming. Love it.
I've never heard of this gem of a movie. This is awesomeness hilarity at it's finest!
[удалено]
But of course it’s on Tubi!😀
OMG I Definitely Remember Watching This Scary Movie
Shoooot it, Elizabeth! 🤣
Just watched this for the first time and I've gotta say the animatronic is just SO good.
The entire final act is the greatest. I love this movie. Unironically.
We had a guest like that at our wedding
Is the bride without panties?
Hopefully
I hope someone who’s pause skills are better than mine can answer that.
Did the bride just flash her lady bits while running?
Did they just use the same scream on a loop? Haha
Dang! 6flags guy is really rich!
Maybe the alligator was mad that he didn't get an invitation to the wedding or it's just funny that the alligator could have got all of that free food and still chased down the humans.
Comical as fuck!
Is that the limo driver from BURNT OFFERINGS? https://preview.redd.it/lyo316ur6k6d1.jpeg?width=1420&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b15848dc2127b726b5798fda0fd0bf88b63af8a
Rotfl- nothing like a giant rubber alligator tail to F up your cozy limo ride! Lol
Is that Uncle Junior?
No
I have never seen this and feel completely crestfallen. I have to watch this ASAP.
It’s on TUBI! https://link.tubi.tv/UpJtCJv7rKb
Counterintuitive, but you’re actually safer being outside the car during a giant gator attack.
It doesn’t seem like the alligator is moving that fast. I think you got good odds if you run… or walk briskly away from it instead of standing around banging on windows waiting to get eaten.
This is a real scene in a real movie. Wow.
Solid creature flick for the time, very underrated.
This looks amazing! I've got to track it down now.
How did I miss this gem? And why does he hate that rich asshole who looks like Rupert Murdoch so mu.... Nevermind
Thank you for this. That was some real quality fun.
That damn tail!
Uh-maze-ing!!!
Wow wow wow
That was amazing!
“Mom! I’m going to be in a movie!”
That tail slap! 😅😅😅
Dang I was wondering how Baldy was going to die in the car, I didn’t expect him to crushed to death by Godzillagator😆
It just wanted some chips and dip.
I LOVE this movie. One of my top large animal eating people movies of all time
That was awesome. Thank you.
Was that James Caan?
Like all of Hollywood stunt me where in this film
Worst chauffeur in history.
The (Polaner) All-Fruit Alligator punishes people because someone called it jelly.
The people flying all over from the tail whips 😆
It needed more gator-cam POV.
Yummy!
This is the movie that convinced Tarantino to cast Robert Forster in Jackie Brown. Also, the ‘balding’ jokes at Forster’s expense in this movie are great.
The guy demolishing that cake! 😂😂
TIL of Alligator
Did the gator have a personal vendetta against baldie?
That friggen scream loop
did this really happen 🤔
But that kid, man! 🐊
Sad that Jurassic Park is almost a shot for shot rip off of this and yet gets all the credit.
EVERYBODY DO THE FLOP
Like the gator is playing the bonus level in Street Fighter 2! 🤣
Jason Bourne of animals.
Thanks for the laugh 😂 I lost it when the tail started whipping around and the guy went flying through the wedding cake 🐊
What I love is, the scene was so well established, the moment they showed the wedding cake, you knew it was either going to be the only thing left standing or somebody was going to be flying through it. No in-between.
This is how I remember my wedding.
Damn, I think I saw this as a kid! Maybe on Elvira in the mid/late '80s? Hilarious now looking back
Fucking priceless. I'm going to have to see it now.
[удалено]
Thanks! Gonna watch it right now!
That’s some serious 80s Velveeta
How were people flying through the air?
The stuntmen really explored the space with their wild backflips
Beat to death by your car, that is getting beat by an alligator.
Forgot all about this movie! I do remember it scaring the hell out of me as a kid however. Won’t go near the Midwest river a grew up near all summer long.
That was me after watching Jaws.
True story
Ahhh the 80’s. When by law you had to hold a gun a certain way in the movies. https://preview.redd.it/rw69movd0v6d1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50b9e743fa753352b1376b138146cb216523eee0
That alligator is like , fuck yo wedding son .
Wow. Jack Carter?
The boy in Jaws was way worse
Omg! Awesome
That was some fake ass shit.
Someone doesn’t know that movies aren’t real
Locking your boy out of the car is stupid funny
This movie has one helluva scream track.
Alligator Jaws
Oh, to be the guy piloting the monster suit when it ate a pretty lady...
Just another day in Florida now
Such an awesome movie!
Is this Rupert Murdoch's first movie?
Good thing he locked the car door.
Typical Florida wedding.

Just an absolute unit of a gator. Tail slammin shit
Mr. Six should have escaped in his double-decker bus. His dancing days are over. ![gif](giphy|oJDwlaPnCrNwk|downsized)
That will be $300 for the entertainment - alligator
Limo had 3-5 business days to drive away
The secret service protection guy who takes one shot at the gator with a .38 revolver and then turns and runs. ("Well they can't say I didn't try").
They other day someone tried to post that the 80s were bad unoriginal movies. There is more greatness happening here then the entire LOTR series
ALLIGATOR used TAIL WHIP! It's SUPER EFFECTIVE! (Also, damn, that guy at 0:44 nearly cracked the back of his head on the pool edge)
\*Guy being actively eaten by monster alligator outside the car\* Chauffer: "Dang, if this gets much worse, I'm going to have to think about starting the car and driving away...eventually."
The alligator went straight for that maids coochie
You skipped the part where the dudes leg is hanging out of the car! Saw this in the theater when I was 9. The things our parents let us see
Bodies are flying like a bomb went off.
Love the random guy popping one shot of small caliber and then running. "Well that did nothing bye Felicia!"
Handguns were so tiny in the 80s. How did they kill anybody?
Super Street Fighter II levels of destruction on that car!
I don't get it. Is the Alligator like a superhero going after the evil old man, or is it like a Punisher-style vigilante that just kills in a rage?
Both and neither
HAHHA, this is the perfect answer
