SnakeMan (2005)

The Story is not too bad.. I read the script and they missed some interesting parts, which could help to understand it. The water is the poison of the snake which mixed with the water of the cave ...if I remember correctly. The snake is not good the original snake's size is about the snake head statue's size. I have trouble only with the snake.. other parts of the movie is good, the colors and sounds both...,just the snake...very virtually. The real snake is looks like the statues, and they are looks good , the Snake King is too big for the size witch can live in a little cave is true, but the statue size snake easily fit into a cave. When they built the cave they didn't know what is the size of the snake what the Effect Man "draw" on it. I think if the effection men should make a better snake this movie could be one of the best snakemovies ever. :XD

Lurking in the exotic rain forests of Brazil is a deadly, multi-headed serpent that rips limbs off, squeezes victims to a bloody pulp and swallows others whole. A group of scientists working for a leading pharmaceutical company called Gen-Tec are down that way researching a new drug and end up stranded in monster territory when their helicopter crashes. Along for the ride is a local guide (Stephen Baldwin) who is the son of anthropologists and speaks the obscure native language, a corrupt, bossy jerk who keeps waving his gun at everyone and the token attractive blonde lady doctor (Jayne Heitmeyer) who emerges as the film's strongest character. Gary Hudson spends most of his time on the phone or sitting behind a desk as an exec from the company who actually has the team down for other reasons (and shows up with a machine gun toting commando squad at the very end). There's another mean jungle tribe in the forest (with an English-speaking leader!) that use blowguns, spears, tree limbs, booby traps and arrows against victims, kidnap the leading lady and worship the great Snake God "Naga." Also here is a trek through a crocodile-filled swamp, attacks from tarantulas and smaller serpents, overkill green-tinted snake POV camera-work and a partially insane, blood-painted American from a previous expedition. And it all ends on a weird metaphysical note with the discovery of the fountain of youth and a message about modern day greed and disregard for the sanctity of ancient cultures! The computer special effects on the deadly serpent are pretty lame (especially during the day scenes), but this is still a pretty entertaining fusing of Lost World, adventure and monster movie genres.

There's not much to say about this movie. It's predictable. In the sense that, there's nothing particularly new about the plot that we haven't seen and some parts are really easy to guess. For instance, you can always be assured that greedy or selfish people will end up eaten. Other than that, I think it generally caters to people who have a penchant for monster/creature movies such as Anacondas, Jurassic Park, Resident Evil, The Host, House of the Dead etc (But not all of these movies are lousy. Some of them have rather redeeming qualities-such as the Host and R. Evil). Or viewers who enjoy seeing people being chased by this things. There's nothing outrightly bad about this movie-just that it seems like a copy of Anacondas-curse of the blood orchid, with variations here and there. I watched this movie for sheer amusement. It's not scary either-since they always give you a visual warning whenever the giant Snake is about to attack by showing you the Snake's point of view which is illuminated in green-which reminds me of Snakes on a plane.

I watched it on the sci-fi channel. I couldn't help laughing at the special effects and the story line. Stephen Baldwin was horrible in it! Bad acting overall from everyone in the movie! Sci-Fi should be sick with themselves about this load of garbage! The story goes pretty much like this, Some researchers go out in search of a fountain of youth that is supposedly somewhere in the jungle. But there is one problem though, to get to the so-called fountain of youth water they have to get past the deadly predator (the snake king), or should we say CGI King. The storyline as I mentioned earlier is totally silly, the snake doesn't even attack some of the people for some reason, what's up with that, maybe he knows them (they must be buddies! Come on, please!) Also when the snake kills the people, it looks ridiculous. Also you never understand why the snake has 3 heads. Please don't waste your time with this garbage!
