Fair Cop: Hector congratulates the female deputy on her great breasts. She thanks him. Sheriff Giove from the fourth movie also counts, despite being old enough to have a teenage daughter. | |

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Occurs between Jack and Kelly. In the third movie, Ellie went on the trip to get away from Brett, and his following her out there might be a bit stalker-esque, but they do have a nice moment when they briefly reunite during the chaos. | |

Darker and Edgier: Compared to it's predecessors. Lake Placid Legacy seems to have a more serious and slightly dark tone with barely any comedy or campiness in it. And it feels much more intense overall with its setting and atmosphere. | |

The Worf Effect: See Always a Bigger Fish above. In short, the bear serves as this trope. It suddenly appears and is about to munch our main leads, then the crocodile pops out and snatches the bear off the shore into the lake to eat it. | |

Misplaced Wildlife | |
| Lake Placid / int_17a45ff5 | comment |
Misplaced Wildlife: Discussed; the characters openly debate what a giant saltwater crocodile is doing in a lake in Maine. The crocodile expert posits that, miraculously, it swam across two separate oceans. Mrs. Bickerman states that it just showed up one day and hasn't left since. Unless it was the biggest black bear on record, the bear didn't belong in the region either. | |

Sexual Karma | |
| Lake Placid / int_2a4e8051 | comment |
Sexual Karma: Sheriff Giove and Ryan Loflin are seen having a nice moment in Lake Placid: The Finale Chapter, then going off together and waking up in bed the next morning, sated and happy. This is contrasted with Brittany leading Drew to have sex, partially to keep him from pursuing Chloe instead of her, although interestingly, that scene receives the same, tender musical accompaniment as the two adults get, and both of them seem to have a good time, arguably providing a subtle indication that Brittany and Drew aren't meant to be demonized for it. | |

Lovable Alpha Bitch | |
| Lake Placid / int_3287773c | comment |
Lovable Alpha Bitch: Lovable might be putting it too strong, but Brittany from the fourth movie starts out as a more generic Alpha Bitch before showing some more admirable aspects later on. From her first scene, she is jealous of Chloe (who has some mild chemistry with her boyfriend Drew) from the get go and doesn't hesitate to peck away at her through Accidental Misnaming and Anti-Intellectualism, as well as having sex with Drew to further make up his mind. Once the giant crocodiles attack though, she displays real concern for the others and does try to save someone who's being eaten. Afterwards, she is clearly traumatized by what happened and shows a much softer attitude towards Chloe and her friend Elaine throughout the attempts to escape the creatures, never questioning them or endangering the rest of the group. | |

Plot Twist | |
| Lake Placid / int_3b23e81 | comment |
Plot Twist: It turns out there are two giant crocodiles in Lake Placid. The film brilliantly doesn't tip its hand until the first croc accidentally wedges itself inside their helicopter, meaning it can now be safely sedated and taken elsewhere. Just when they're about to celebrate, the second croc appears and grabs Hector's ankle, dragging him, but luckily, they tug him loose and Hank blows its head off when it tries to attack them again. And it bears mentioning that Hank gets one of the most awesome lines in the film after killing the second croc: "There. Back to one!" | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him | |
| Lake Placid / int_43a045de | comment |
Dropped a Bridge on Him: On occasion. In the second movie after being a nice member of the main party, and having witnessed and survived an earlier alligator attack, Frank is just knocked into a tree by a random tail swipe of a crocodile and apparently breaks his neck and in the fourth movie Brittany is decapitated after being Caught in a Snare when the alligator bites up at her, with little fanfare after being a prominent presence throughout the movie and getting some Character Development. A more awesome, non-human example comes in the first film, with Hank blowing away the second crocodile with the grenade launcher within seconds of it showing itself and attacking. | |

Monstrous Cannibalism: By the fourth film, it's confirmed that the biggest crocs are eating the smaller ones. Which Real Life crocs do anyway, but in this case it's cited as proof they've run out of other wild prey. | |

Brother–Sister Incest | |

Brother–Sister Incest: Used as an insult. Hank nearly falls victim to one of Hector's croc traps. When Hank berates him, Hector insists that it will end up saving his life, telling him "The longer you live, the more sex you get to have with your sisters!". Because they dislike each other so much, Hector is presumably insinuating that Hank is an inbred, hick-town sheriff. | |

The End... Or Is It?: The heroes manage to sedate and capture the huge crocodile hanging out in an American lake, but the end shows that she had babies. This is foreshadowed earlier on when a smaller male suddenly jumps up out of nowhere before getting shot. Most of the sequels also have similar incidents indicating that there are still alligators out there. | |

In the third movie, Ellie is this to the group of teenagers, and has many of the required character traits for the trope (she does get naked in one scene, but only while changing), although Nathan and his wife and son also survive the movie. | |

Safe Driving Aesop: In the fourth film, the swim team only ends up at Lake Placid (instead of a crocodile-free neighboring lake) after their bus driver misses a road sign due to looking at porn on his cellphone. Later in the movie, Drew and Brittany making out while driving a jet ski keeps them from noticing Joey (another jet-skier who'd wiped out) being attacked by baby crocodiles (although to be fair they might have been too far away to notice anyway). | |

Wrestler of Beasts: In Lake Placid 2, Jack Struthers tells of how he was tracking a lion that was terrorizing a small village. He finally found it at night when he saw Ahmad trying to fight the lion with his bare hands after it had killed his mother. This story is actually the first clue that Ahmad is the better hunter between himself and Struthers as Ahmad would later reveal that it took Struthers four shots at point-black range — two of which went into Ahmad — before Struthers took it down. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
| Lake Placid / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: The crocodile(s), of all things! A bear suddenly runs out and is about to snack on Hank and Hector, then a giant croc pops out of the water and grabs it, dragging it into the lake to be devoured. They're all stunned and then Hank eventually notes, "Okay, I admit it. It's a crocodile." | |
