Celebrate National Wildlife Week With These Wild Creature Features on Crackle!

This National Wildlife Week, Crackle is bringing out the beasts. The free streaming service is unleashing a feeding frenzy of horror titles where nature’s wildest, most ravenous creatures take center stage. From swarms of frenzied, flesh-eating fish to hulking reptilian terrors, these enraged animals are on a rampage, leaving a trail of chaos and carnage in their wake. 

Whether you find yourself in the crosshairs of an apex predator far from its natural habitat, vacationing in a tropical paradise turned gruesome feeding ground, or trapped in the midst of a relentless insect swarm, Crackle’s slate of animal attack thrillers dares you to confront your primal fears. Stealthy stalkers, gaping maws of razor teeth, remorseless killers operating on pure instinct – this is survival horror at its most untamed.

Vipers
A break in at a medical research laboratory at a classified seaside location has freed a mass of genetically enhanced vipers. They don’t just bite. They eat.

Croc
A beach resort town in Thailand loses good chunks of its tourist trade when a killer croc is cut loose and left to roam the swamps-and backyards-of the locals.
