When Animals Attack!!!

They want to eat us....you know they do. Those fucking beasts have always been after us. Sharks, Birds, Bugs, Snakes, Gators, Rats, Cats, Bats....hell
even Killer Shrews!!! So what are your favorite Killer Animal movies. Here are a few of my favorites:

Jaws (1975).......for any kid of the 70's this movie had a powerfull impact. I was scared go more than ankle deep in the ocean for years..(now that's a movie with impact!)
The Birds (1963)......Hitchcock even makes sparrows scary. The crows gathering on the playground monkeybars are unforgetable.
Black Water (2007)....climb a fucking tree, there's crocs in that water.
Piranha (1978).......those damn scientists, can't they just leave well enough alone.
Alligator (1980)....yep, there are giant alligators in the sewers..this is a real gem from the early 80's

There's a few to get it started. What are your favorite animal horrors? Also, it seems to me that in overall quality (and quantity) alligator/croc movies rule the animal horror world. Lets see some quality recommendations.

I'm partial to the Giant Gila Monster, as it is full of patently false lizard facts and unnecessary awkward teen idol moments from the ubercrappy Don Sullivan.

Lake Placid is a great cheesey giant alligator movie.

Man, I love Lake Placid.....I think it hits the mark on winking to the viewer, but still providing a great Monster..

Watched The Swarm a couple of nights ago, always enjoyable with a bloody high body count!

Always loved the 50s mutated giants of the animal kingdom.

It Came From The Beneath The Sea
Them!
