SNAKES ON A TRAIN www.theasylum.cc Wow, Where has theasylum and their quirky brand of film-making been ? On Mother F'n Sci-Fi Channel and major video chains, Netflix yet ?This is probably their best film, Or Very Close Tuit. Alby Castro and Ryanne steal the show as the couple harboring deadly snakes on thee train. The special effects are very good, Especially for Theasylum Samuel L. Jackson wishes his were This Slimy. Is that really Peter Mervis (interviewed before) lying & groping & what not ( If you're not a Mallachi Bro,Who wrote that Homoerotic crap with a gun ???) Only downer I can see is what happens with the Little Girl, Very Jon-Benet Ramsey timely. Hey , Did you peoples ship enough to store shelves ? Is Sci-Fi Channel rushing a premiere on TV ? Other notable peeps in front of camera and behind: Derek Osedach. Look forward to more from Mallachis, Alby, Ryanne and those drug smuggling hotties: Amelia and Shannon. One an unbelievable ending, Actually after watching this "Orphidiophobia-PALOOZA" I did believe it.
... View MoreLooking back on the year 2006,one of the things i will remember most is the "Snakeamania" on the internet for a film called Snakes on a plane.But unknown to me there was a straight- to- DVD rip-off film called Snakes on a train!After seeing this i feel its at best a below-par B-Movie.The plot:A husband and wife get on a train to go to Los Angles,to get help form the husbands uncle who is a shaman.This is because the wife's family do not approve of her marring him,so they have put a curse on her that snakes will "become her".Thought with a sixteen hour drive to Los Angles and a group of passengers the include an ex-Narc cop and some drug traffickers.Will they get there in time before the snakes take her over? View on the film: First the effects:I have to say that while some scenes with the smaller snakes look good in a gory-way,the main effect shots you have to wait eighty minutes to see!Are sadly that bad that they completely kill any good memories of the film(The film makes 198os Video Games look like T2 next to this!.)One of the things i noticed is that there is no screenplay credit on the film! and the directors make the film so anti-climatic it ruins the whole film. Final view on the film:A below-par B-Movie,with an unbelievably bad ending.

Brujo, who is looking after her, attempts to take her to Los Angeles on the train. After several confrontations on the train, Brujo's collection of snakes manage to separate themselves from their owner and go on the hunt. Whilst all this is happening, normal, everyday passengers are relaxing, what is unknown to them is that something deadly is heading their way, and that their is no were out.After watching the wonderfully fun 'Snakes on a Plane', i had to check this out. I knew it was going to be a rip-off and that the film will look cheap, but what i found was worst to watch. The whole curse plot was silly and should never have been included. The special effects aren't terrible but are not the best looking. I did not have a clue about the ending. It was silly to watch and pathetic. The acting was absolutely terrible, and looked bad. They just could not act to save their lives. If you want a great laugh, watch this, otherwise you should really avoid this."We have a runaway train. I repeat. We have a runaway train." - Conductor (Stephen A.F. Day)
... View MoreThis is one of the funniest movies ever made. And for those of you who don't get it, it's supposed to be funny. So often comedies try to be so intentionally funny that it misses, but here is finally a movie that succeeds in being hilarious in the most subtle of ways. Even "spoofs" lack the originality and natural feel of this film. It is a comedic classic that will surely be appreciated in another time when studios are fdoing this sort of thing regularly. kudos to the makers, and to a hilariously subtle cast of actors, including Isaac Wade, whose performances is top-notch. Truly, a real break-out star performance by an true underrated stage actor. It'll be great to see this guy get his due.
