Reviews

“A story that follows the stereotypes of the animal horror film and shows the snake's forays from its perspective. Since this stylistic device wears out quickly and the drawing of people only delivers bland reproductions, the independent performance of the filmmaker tends towards zero. Even the poor trick technology used in production does not necessarily promote tension. "
