Dark Age (1987)
Australia again! A Jaws homage again! This time, John Jarratt (star of Rogue director Greg McLean’s Wolf Creek) plays a ranger caught between his job (hunting down the killer croc that’s been attacking people) and the beliefs of the local Aboriginal community—including a character played by Australian acting legend David Gulpilil (Rabbit-Proof Fence)—who don’t want the animal to be harmed for spiritual reasons. Quentin Tarantino is apparently a fan of this one, which is information that could inform your decision to watch it either way.
