Is the crocodile real in Badland Hunters? Action star Don Lee is not only going up against a mad doctor and running zombies, but he also gets to punch a predator. So, how did the Netflix K-Movie pull this scene off?
Is the Crocodile Scene Real in Badland Hunters?
"The world has come to an end. The world calls upon the hunter." In this case, the hunter is Train to Busan, The Roundup, and Eternals star Don Lee who is depicted as the most fearsome hunter fighting in a dystopian world.
Considering that Badland Hunters revolves around a nightmarish story, what was up with that crocodile scene in a particular sequence? How was the scene done? Is the predatorial reptile featured in the film real?
Well, as of writing, the creators and the main star of the film Don Lee have yet to reveal whether the crocodile is real or if it is just an animatronic.
Meanwhile, ahead of Badland Hunters' premiere, Don Lee and the director Heo Myeong-Haeng (New World, The Good The Bad The Weird) shared some behind-the-scenes info on how the action scenes were made.
Badland Hunters focused on a "new action style" that Don Lee "hasn't tried" before.
According to Lee, the director has been "designing new action sequences that aren't typically seen in this film genre", which would likely include punching the croc and how Nam San (played by Don Lee) can "coolly take care of them."
