Jackson Booth-Millard From the short description I read it sounded like some Anaconda rip-off made for TV, it turned out, that is exactly what is was, just with more snakes. Basically a large amount of vipers have been taken by scientists to be experimented on to find a breakthrough, it all goes wrong when some criminals unintentionally break the glass and the snakes escape. At a big meeting, Burton (The Dentist's Corbin Bernsen), who is in charge of the research, explains that these vipers have been genetically enhanced in order to create a cure for breast cancer. Now slithering their way to a near isolated lake town, the residents, including Nicky Swift (American Pie's Tara Reid) who works at the hotel, are unaware of the danger. One or two people fall victim to the terror these venomous mutated creatures bring, but the townspeople are still not sure what is going on, only that some people have snake bites that need antidote injected. Soon enough everyone is on the run from the vipers, trapping themselves in the hotel, and trying to get help or escape the danger. Burton does find out about the snakes escaping from the medical research facility, and he does get in touch with one of the people caught in the chaos, but he dismisses the problem for the benefit of the research. In the end the vipers are all blown up with a combination of light and gas in the hotel, and Burton gets what coming to him too when the meeting people overhear his earlier conversation. Also starring Jonathan Scarfe as Cal Taylor, Genevieve Buechner as Maggie Martin, Stephen E. Miller as Hank Brownie, Jessica Steen as Dr. Collins, Don S. Davis as Dr. Silverton, Mark Humphrey as Sheriff Hendricks, Aaron Pearl as Jack Martin and Claire Rankin as Ellie Martin. It is shame that Reid, one of the fittest of the girls in the great teen sex comedy has gone so downhill, she is rather dull, and Bernsen doesn't do much either, all the other cast members are silly and predictable too. The blood amount is fair, but the special effects involved for making the snakes look deadly and terrifying is just terrible, it isn't scary, it feels like something made for TV, and it is just an overly boring and awful horror thriller. Poor!

zachery roadway Why do people hate this movie? It not that bad. The acting is pretty decent. True, the snakes look like crap. I agree 100% with you on that guys. Tara Reid was hard to decide. In the beginning of the movie she does do a bit of bitching. I love the scene where she slaps her mother (i think) in the face. lol! Story is nice. It a pretty nice little snake flick. Watch it with an open mind!I Liked it-Zach

Oddark123 This was my sixth title I have viewed from the Maneater series. I wasn't expecting much at all except a way to waste a Sunday morning. However I was shocked. I was expecting them to use National Geographic footage of vipers lunging at people, but instead found a cool movie that I really enjoyed.Now some people just can't appreciate b-movies simply because they seem to actually care for the mainstream stuff and don't even want to give such stuff as Vipers a chance. If you want something award worthy your in the wrong place.However this is a fun little movie, I was into the characters and I'll say it's the best title I've seen from the Maneater series overall.

peaches_89-1 That was quite easily the worst movie I have ever seen. You can forgive poor visuals but not the story line, facts and acting. It is one of those films that those involved must question why they made the film in the 1st place. This film could only have passed as respectable if a small town made the film to promote itself. Its unfortunate someone like Don Davis (may he rest in peace) put his name to the film. Its a train wreck that probably has to be seen to be believed. Snakes that could chew human flesh, hunt in packs, eat all the fish in the water and leave almost no human remains is bordering on ridiculous. At some stages they flew at their victims and attacked necks like they were a predator. The scenes where they attract the snakes with flame throwers in the middle of the night so the dozens of survivors could run to the boat sums up the film. Forget the snakes inability to stay warm enough and active enough at night, not to mention the snakes just happen to ignore the vibrations in the ground made by all those running people. It makes "Snakes on a plane" look decent and "Anaconda" look like like a multiple award winner and thats not easy to do. Save your money and if you have to spend it, give it to a good charity.
