Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
lojitsu A-Z Horror Movie of the Day..."Mega Snake" (R - 2007 - US)Sub-Genre: MonsterMy Score: 4.1Cast=5 Acting=4 Plot=4 Ending=5 Story=3 Scare=5 Jump=3 F/X=3 Monster=5 Blood=4The father of two sons is killed by a snake in 1986 and twenty years later, they have very different outlooks on the reptile. When one of the sons buys a special snake and it's jar is broken, things go horribly wrong."(1) never let the snake out of the jar; (2) never let it eat living animals; and (3) never fear the heart of the snake." It was an OK SyFy channel movie to watch at 2am, but as a monster movie it kinda blew chunks. Was it trying to be "Gremlins" or was it just let's make stuff up and put in a giant snake (someone say Anaconda)? I can't recommend it as anything more than a meh.
Claudio Carvalho In 1986, in Tennessee, the father of the boys Lester and Duff Daniels is murdered by a snake in a weird ceremony. Twenty years later, Duff (John T. Woods) collects snakes while Les (Michael Shanks) fears them.One day, Duff visits the Kitawa Indian Screaming Hawk (Ben Cardinal) to buy snakes and sees a small snake in a jar. He decides to buy the snake, but Screaming Hawk tells that the species is not for sale. He explains that it is the dangerous Unteka that has three rules to raise it: (1) never let the snake out of the jar; (2) never let it eat living animals; and (3) never fear the heart of the snake. Duff steals the Unteka and brings the snake home. However, he accidentally drops the jar and the snake eats his cat. The snake gets bigger and bigger eating animals and the locals. Now Les, his former girlfriend Erin (Siri Baruc) and Screaming Hawk have to stop the Unteka to save the local population."Mega Snake" is a funny and entertaining Sy Fy production absolutely underrated in IMDb. The story uses elements of "Gremlins", "Anaconda" and "Jaws" and the director Tibor Takács makes a good B-movie with his limited budget combined with humor and funny characters. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Megasnake"
ctomvelu-1 I am at a loss to understand why The Sci-Fi Channel keeps running these cheap giant snake movies. Oh, what ANACONDA hath wrought! MEGASNAKE has a large reptile roaming the Tennessee countryside (actually Bulgaria), picking off one unfortunate resident after another. Bullets bounce off it, of course. There was just enough gore to keep me reasonably happy, but the snake is badly composited and the generic cast doesn't help one bit. The filmmakers even steal a plot element from JAWS, involving an upcoming county carnival that wiser heads feel needs to be called off but of course the mayor wop't hear of it. Otherwise, the snake would have little to do outside of picking off an occasional individual. Pass on this one.
Kenneth Eagle Spirit In my mind the Sci-Fi Channel makes made for TV movies that rank right up there at the bottom. Mostly. But this one was better than most of what they serve up. Most of the players? Don't look for Oscar alerts. But ... Michael Shanks is a fine actor and played his part well. Ben Cardinal was also a bright spot, he came off VERY well given the character he played. And, dare I say it? There was one portion of the flick that contained, well, very positive Feedback. That part was just fun. One thing that stood out, as with any Sci-Fi Channel movie, for its poor quality was the computer generated special effects. All their snakes look alike and this one looked like some sort of picture laid on top of another picture. But the plot and characters were kinda cool, so, over all ... Thumbs up for a change. Shocking feedback, huh?
