The film follows a group of environmentalists who must defend themselves against an abnormally large crocodile while investigating the illegal dumping of toxic waste in the swamp in which the animal lives.
The film was shot back-to-back with its sequel ''Killer Crocodile 2'', which featured the offspring of the previous film's croc causing havoc of its own.
No relation to the Creator/DCComics character [[Characters/BatmanRoguesGalleryPart2 Killer Croc]].

At the same time, the {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s responsible for dumping the toxic waste in the croc's habitat are clearly the villains in the whole situation, and ultimately do get their comeuppance at the end.
