Max was one of the Four main crocodiles to appear in Lake Placid 2, he also appeared briefly at the end of the first film.
History[]
Max made his first screen appearance at the end of the First film along with his three other siblings being feed by Delores Bickerman, the Crocs remained in Black Lake after their Father was relocated and their Mother was killed. For over 10 years they lived in the Lake and at some point they killed Delores and were then taking care by her sister Sadie, where she continued watching over them and began feeding them Beef rejected by the FDA. The Crocs would also feed on local wildlife but their primal nature would take affect and they began preying on the local residents.
Max made his first appearance in Lake Placid 2, where he was seen briefly killing three teens. He then appeared where he ate a boar on land that Struthers had trapped, before Max escaped he was tranquilized and passed out but he awoke soon after and killed Deputy Dale Davis who was attempting to tie his snout down, he then made his way back to the Lake after getting shot at. He soon reappeared stalking Sheriff James Riley and Ahmad who were hunting him in the lake, Max attacked the dead boar which was being used as bait and was shot by a harpoon. He somehow managed to snap the line to the harpoon which was connected to the boat, soon after he resurfaced again and was heading to attack but before Ahmad could shoot Max, Struthers swept down in his plane in front of the boat and shot the plane with a harpoon destroying both the plane and the boat. Max made his way after Struthers who was now on land but was attacked by Ahmad but he threw him off, he began getting shot at by Emma but before he could kill her Ahmad intervened and stabbed Max several times in the head, killing him almost instantly. He was later decapitated and planned to be mounted.
