Mutant snakes survived a terrorist attack on a government laboratory, and they now threaten the town of Santa Mira Springs, California. Seismic activity has brought snakes to the surface, where residents are being bitten. Victims can transmit the virus to healthy persons. The military puts the town under quarantine. Local physicians try to control the epidemic, while the military is primarily concerned with keeping the virus a secret.

I voted a ten on it because I easily earned my moneys worth on it, a whole 2 Bucks. Thats right. I've seen it twice now, and soon to be three times. I bought it because the movie looked terrible on the cover and the contents were even more terrible that I could ever have dreamed or hoped for. I am doing one of my last ever collegiate papers on this movie.... because the movie was SO bad. I would love to have a spoiler in this section but to be honest, there is nothing to really spoil unless you were really thinking that this movie could be at all good. I can tell you one thing though.... the climax, you know when you have just seen it because you will be thinking "was that the climax?" Completely horrible movie that i love.

I love Treat Williams, but I think even he knew that this one the snakes couldn't even digest. Can we say 'ripoff'? Almost right out of "Outbreak", except the only good thing about it was that Treat was in it. I wasted $2.00 buying the VHS. I'm so happy it wasn't more. Overly cheesy, very predictable, badly directed, terrible continuity (really didn't have any), and worse with the script. Arrgh.I feel pain every time I see one of these movies and wonder who I can hit up for a budget. I'm sure I can do much better. Much. Somebody give me 1M and I'll give you a wonderful movie or two.Oops, IMDb wants ten lines of text for the comments, so I have to fill this in a bit.Don't watch it, don't buy it, don't rent it...run, as fast as you can from this movie. It might cause vomiting, gagging, laughter, or anger.

I thought this was gonna be your typical brainless horror flick with the usual anti-establishment drivel to entertain the masses but lo and behold, it weren't so bad! The great unwashed will enjoy it but so will the average filmgoer who wants a bit more for his few bucks. Rattlesnakes get a bad break here but Treat Williams' character deals with them with respect and there is none of this revulsion that "Jaws" had for the sharks - guess we learned a lesson - Mother Nature does have a balancing act somewhere. The usual military stereotypes are villainous but redemption is at hand nonetheless. Enough of my philosophizing, get your popcorn and enjoy this movie. Do not watch it on TV - too many commercials will ruin it, rent it or buy it instead. Out here in HK, I paid $20HKD or about $2.50USD - not bad at all!! ha ha A pleasant surprise - enjoy.

This is one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen. It is completley unbelievable, the actors are terrible, and the plot is dumb. Not to mention horribly written.On to the good stuff: Rattlesnakes, mutant or not, DO NOT STRIKE OR SEEK OUT HUMAN PREY. Ever. Nor can they kill you with a bite to the ankle. Also they do not rattle non-stop. That is a defensive mechinism. On the box there is a boa constrictor, and there were no boa constrictors in the entire movie. I find that very misleading. There were, however, corn snakes and vipers within the movie that are A) Not poisonous and B) not a rattlesnake!This movie was a lot more fun to comment on, then to watch. I wasted $3.25 I will never get back, and two hours of my precious years I have eternally lost.
