Lake Placid vs. Anaconda is a 2015 American made-for-television horror comedy film directed by A. B. Stone from a screenplay written by Berkeley Anderson. The film is a crossover between the Anaconda and Lake Placid franchises and the fifth installment in both their respective series. The film premiered on April 25, 2015 on Syfy.
In Black Lake, Maine, Beach and Jim Bickerman, now with minor deformities from his last encounter with the crocodiles, capture a female giant crocodile. They take it back to their truck, where two scientists crossbreed with a female giant anaconda to perfect the Blood Orchid serum from the previous films. However, the crocodile escapes and kills one scientist and frees the female and two male anacondas before causing the truck to explode and destroying part of the electric fence keeping the crocodiles in Black Lake, though Beach, Bickerman, and the remaining scientist survive. However, a small group of crocodiles also escape.
The crocodiles search for food, and one kills Daphne Mailer and her boyfriend, while another kills the remaining scientist, and multiple baby crocodiles kill poacher Earl. The crocodiles eventually make their way to nearby Clear Lake, along with the anacondas.
Sheriff Reba calls U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service officer Will "Tully" Tull to help recapture the escaped crocodiles. Meanwhile, a group of sorority girls and two frat boys, Brett and Andrew, arrive at Clear Lake to initialize some new members. The group includes Tull's daughter Bethany.
The crocodiles kill multiple sorority girls and Brett and Andrew. The survivors run into the forest to get to the cars. However, the girls left the keys on the beach. Heather and another girl are eaten by the crocodiles and Tiffani's car is crushed by an anaconda with Jennifer still inside. A crocodile bites Tiffani in half and the others flee.
Deputy Ferguson discovers one of the surviving sorority girls hiding on a boat. The traumatized girl is taken to a hospital while Reba and Tull continue to search for Bethany. Clear Lake is evacuated by Ferguson.
Sarah Murdoch, daughter of the late J.D. Murdoch and C.E.O. of Wexel Corp, leads a team of herself, Beach, Bickerman, and two commandos arrive and go to capture the female anaconda before it lays it's eggs. However, one of the commandos is killed by a crocodile and Beach is forced to shoot them both.
