This is a re-release of the film "Carnivorous" in an attempt to get the 10 people who purchased the first one, to buy it again. The opening of the film looks and feels like a "Creepshow" episode, and the film should have been shortened to that length. Five inattentive young adults and a stole-away hit and kill a woman (Lisa Arnold) along the road on their way to Kurt Stanley Camp. Alan (Louis Herthum) the husband of the dead woman uses his long buried stolen voodoo pen or "Kulev stick" to create a giant snake to devour the occupants of the vehicle that struck his wife while zipping down the down. He managed to get a good look at all the passengers, so he could draw each one individually, while none of them saw his wife.It then becomes a snake vs kids movie with a hip-hop sound track that didn't add anything to the film. Bad acting, bad script, bad to non-existing special effects. DMX shows up at the end to help hunt the snake. Not worth a $.99 rental.Parental guide: F-bomb, sex, strip tease (Victoria Vodar bra/panties), no nudity.

Lockjaw: Rise of the Kulev Serpent's photography is not so bad. That is hardly a consolation, as everything else is and that is an understatement in itself. Lockjaw: Rise of the Kulev Serpent has rather dull lighting and the scenery has little atmosphere or wonder, but they're nothing compared to the truly slipshod special effects. Audibly, it is little better, with a generic and overly-obvious music score and sound effects that manage to undermine the atmosphere, managing to make every bit of suspense or scare predictable instead, instead of adding to it. The dialogue is cheesy and stilted with nothing quotable, while the story is far too heavily padded out, has nothing surprising and brings forward no suspense or any real sense of horror. The snake is nowhere near menacing enough, is used poorly and has no personality, while the direction is at best flat and characterless. The characters are severely underdeveloped and are not likable in the slightest. On top of that, the acting is incredibly wooden from everybody involved, I know that they weren't helped by the writing and their characters but these actors looked as though they weren't even trying. All in all, Lockjaw: Rise of the Kulev Serpent is a terror of a movie and in a bad way. 1/10 Bethany Cox

I saw this title on TV last night,I surprised that how be worst a movie like this ? There is no suspense, no horror, no twist and even not having a climax also ! No voodoo Magic shown as voodoo sticks are in the story. Even a magic created creature destroyed by a human made gun ? Wow ! I shut my mind until the end of movie and I could not see last the end due to such a waste time movie. I never recommended this movie to anyone. If any one try he will be disappointed. I suggest them to see 'Anaconda','Godzila' and 'Jurasic park'. I also thanks that this movie is not released as worldwide as theater version, otherwise no second show would have been screened at theaters.

I don't know why I do it to myself with these crummy low budget horror flicks. I could say that this is the worst low budget horror movie in 2008 but the year is not over yet.Spoiler: Here is the whole movie in a nutshell: Paul Cade as a child steals a voodoo pen from a voodoo priest and drew a picture of a snake eating his father and the magical pen brings the snake to life and it does what it was drawn to do. Years later Paul grows up and is married and his wife is killed by hit and run accident caused by brainless suburbanites that make those horny teens in all those Friday The 13th flicks look like geniuses. Paul draws the snake again and it comes to life trying to kill all those kids and everybody in their path. Paul calls on the help of Nick(played by rapper DMX), the son of the voodoo priest whose pen Paul stole. to stop what he started.Opinion: This movie is such a wannabe of Anaconda its pathetic. Think about it. Anaconda is about a killer snake, this "movie" is about a killer snake and they both star rappers in them. The only difference is that Anaconda had some form of suspense and Jon Voight to steal the show. The acting here is atrocious. Everybody is so wooden that you want to slice them open and count the rings. Even DMX gives a wooden performance here and I didn't even think that that was possible! I cant blame him though. The script must have been written by overzealous tween-agers because it sure sounds like it and the special effects are terrible as well. The CGI snake looks like dog droppings molded and shaped to look like a snake. every aspect of this movie fails. If you like watching bad movies try something else. This is not even so bad its good camp. Its so bad its shameful camp and is bad enough to make you question your own existence. Don't waste 76 minutes of your life like I did. Learn from my mistake and try something else!
