Wizard-8 The last years of Roy Scheider's life had him making one direct-to-video movie after another. Most of them were awful, and "Red Serpent" may be his worst. He only shows up for a few scenes, but he manages to give a really awful performance in part due to his really unconvincing Russian accent. (And he has a sex scene showing him with his shirt unbuttoned - ugh!) As for the rest of the movie, it manages for the most part to be even worse than Scheider's performance. You can tell they tried to save this in the editing room due to some real awkward editing and insertion of new material. But there are countless other flaws, like bad audio or inappropriate music. But the biggest flaw of the movie is that it's so boring, with most of the movie devoted to dreary chat or people stumbling in the snow. The reason why I'm not giving this one star is that there is occasionally some nice visual candy, ranging from impressive camera movement to pleasing cinematography. Though the movie is still definitely a stinker!
eclipse1415 Well this has got to be the single worst movie I have ever watched. I am Russian and I couldn't believe this crap. This movie takes advantage of every single Russian stereotype and it does so without any skill or taste. Acting literally sucked. Special effects..... WHAT SPECIAL EFFECTS!? I thought this movie couldn't have got any worst until I saw the helicopter scene at the end of the movie. That scene left me sitting there with my mouth half open in disbelief that someone thought that was a good idea. This is as low budget as they get. If on certain night you find yourself desperate for some entertainment and just happen to have a copy of this movie laying around might I suggest finding a nice brick wall and just bang your head on it for an hour or so... I think you will find that a whole lot more satisfying
jjgarris7 This movie can be slow at times but overall will leave the viewers with question of whether or not it was worth it. Not until the second viewing could I appreciate the subtleties and intricacies contained therein. The movie was excellent with respect to the acting, directing and especially editing. Other titles to look for are show chickens and College Town USA. If you expect to find this movie as another Roy Schieder in Jaws, look elsewhere. If you on the other hand wish to see a feature rich with humor (albeit unanticipated) look no further. Other films I would cite as a reference point would be Gummo, Evil Dead, and Bottle Rocket.
bent-tranberg I once had such a great urge to be entertained that I fell to the temptation to buy "Supergirl". It's by far the worst movie in my DVD collection. Until yesterday evening it was also the worst movie I've ever seen. Now I've found one orders of magnitudes worse. Or should I say hilarious?Me and two friends rented this movie, Red Serpent, which first nearly bored us to death with its lousy technical quality, really really bad performing actors, homemade stunts and awful(ly missing) plot. In the second half of the movie, we honestly didn't think it could get any worse, but it just continued going downhill, and we just couldn't help laughing louder and louder. The final scene was the funniest of it all, no thanks to the creators of this awful goo of a movie.If you're looking for an action movie, shy away from this one. If you like movies a la "Jackass - The Movie", and you're looking for a good laugh, this may be a good candidate.
