They insist on making this trash don't they? One crappy snake movie after another and none of them make any sense. This 90 minute nightmare picks up where the previous Hasselhoff led nightmare left off. A scientist has been commissioned by a millionaire to develop a serum from the blood orchid to try and cure his bone cancer. While the scientist is out inspecting his orchids, a large anaconda in his lab suddenly breaks out of its enclosure, tracks him down and does what every homicidal CGI snake does best. After losing contact with his scientist, the millionaire, played by John Rhys Davies, believes that this guy may have received a better offer so rather than waste any time on common sense to at least check on him, he instead hires a hit-man to finish him off along with some other girl that he's been associated with. And that's pretty much the whole stupid story, such as it is. The serum has remarkable regenerative capabilities as even cutting the head off a snake won't kill it for long as after injecting the serum it will enable the snake to grow a new one. That sound you can hear is the pitiless laughter of every geneticist in the world.And just when you think that this non-story can't possibly get any worse, it suddenly does. I won't bore you with the finite details of what every single idiot ends up doing when in the presence of a large snake done in bad CGI, but I will say that if you wildly fire a machine gun from side-to-side when the snake is directly in front of you then quite frankly you deserve to die.I don't know why they continue wasting money in making crap like this and in every movie I've ever seen that has a larger than life snake in it, they just can't manage to make this thing look lifelike. If they can make animals that have been extinct for millions of years look lifelike, then it stands to reason that you can do that for a snake too right? Wrong obviously. Remember the large snake in the original Conan the Barbarian movie? That was more lifelike than this nonsense. You'd think that in almost 30 years it'd be perfected.This flick is just bad in every sense of the word. Despite the first anaconda movie being as pathetic as it is, it shines like a beacon when compared to this disaster. Anaconda 4 features lots of running, lots of bad driving, lots of arguing and an annoying number of people that just can't shoot straight. That is until you want to hit a fuel can embedded in a snakes mouth a 100 feet away, then after 2 shots you'll be dead on.I caught this on late night TV and I still feel ripped off. I'm still trying to work out how a giant snake can't manage to outrun a guy stumbling over uneven ground, but it's somehow fast enough to catch up to a speeding car travelling on a sealed road. If someone who actually wrote the screenplay for this can answer that then I'd appreciate it.

Shot back-to-back with Anaconda 3, this carries on the riveting saga of snakes, flowers and secret formulas. It's come a long, ridiculous way since it's humble origins. This continues the cheap, made for television feel. The CGI is just an effortless mess which just can't interact with it's surroundings. This snake must be as light as a feather to not disturb the dirt as it slithers. The original had the charm of campy "throat-o-vision" which was actually practical effects. The fourth installment doesn't even have David Hasselhoff. There were a few genuine laughs, which suggest this should have been a comedy. The grenade scene was just unexpectedly goofy, but pleasant.

No matter what mood you are in and how bored you are- do not watch this piece of trash. It's not justifiable to watch such US movies? If you bored, joined the US army but don't watch this. How much did it take to make this? The 1st one I liked- all the others including this 1 I hated, it's low low budget. How did they get it out onto the screens or straight to video - wotever u call it. OMG the world will be such a better place if only there was a minimum standard to pass movies as watchable but noooooo, some US people like this stuff??? I reckon this should be removed from records because it's not doing anyone any favours to get a chance to watch this.

Yet another giant CGI snake on the loose tale. This time its got something to do with orchids which creates a serum that allows one to heal rapidly but also causes rapid growth, aggression and a need to eat constantly. A billionaire with bone cancer needs the serum to survive but unfortunately the snake it was tested on broke out of its cage, ate its creator and is now loose in the wilderness. Not bad, but there have been too many similar films for this to really be effective (Thank you SCIFI channel for creating an unnatural demand for these sort of films). Worse the effects, while adequate are such that they never generate any real scares because its clear nothing is real. Its not a bad film, but its unremarkable. Wait until this hits cable.
