The Smile

Erik van Schaaik

When a world-famous film star is accused of eating his female co-stars, his career goes down the drain. That wipes the smile off his face!

When Knud comes to America, he is only a young crocodile. With his irresistible crocodile-grin, Knud becomes the king of horror movies. His films – in which he plays sexy villains who devour scantily clad ladies – are worldwide hits, and fans all dream of being eaten by Smiley. Knud’s luck changes when he is linked to the disappearances of several young actresses. One lawsuit after another. Knud's empire begins to crumble, and eventually Knud's smile disappears for good. His career, as well as his life, comes to a sad end. Knud was never convicted.
