Loch Ness Terror (2008)

When James Murphy was a kid, his father was killed by the Loch Ness Monster. As an adult, James has followed in his father's footsteps, becoming a cryptozoologist and continuing his search for Nessie.

When he hears of a sighting in Lake Ontario, James heads to town and begins his investigation, which is a good thing since Nessie and her babies have started to chomp the local folks.

While this is an enjoyable movie, there are several problems with Nessie. First is her ever changing scale. One day she's towering over someone on the beach, the next day she's sticking her head through a car window. Also the babies are super cute, so you feel sorry for them when the shooting starts.

Lastly, there are the lines right out of Dark Shadows where James tells Josh that Nessie is an unknown species and Josh replies, "What sort of species is it?"
