a5c7b9f00b A scientific expedition sets out for Borneo to seek a flower called the Blood Orchid, which could grant longer life. Meanwhile, they run afoul of snakes and each other. A group of scientists from New York City head to Borneo to find a rare flower called &#39;The Blood Orchid&#39; that could grant longer life and make them billionaires. However when their boat goes over a waterfall, the group realize that a pack of Anacondas have got to the flower first and are even bigger and deadlier than ever… A &#39;scientific&#39; group go hunting for a legendary flower in Borneo, 2 Doctors among them. Let the fun unfold.<br/><br/>Take 7 individuals who wouldn&#39;t look out out place along the fashion catwalks of the world, pump up the men like body-builders, make the women super-sexy (especially when perspiring in skimpy tops) and add a generous splash of ridiculousness (unlike this movie, that word is real).<br/><br/>Lead by Bill Johnson (Johnny Messner), the group heads up a river in Borneo and comes across an animal that doesn&#39;t exist there. First mistake. Messner&#39;s character is, thanks to fancy scripting, ex-Special Services. Wow. I wondered why he wascoola cucumber, shaved with a blunt 12&quot; Bowie knife and managed to kill a large crocodile single-handedly. Just for the record, he talks with a husky whisper and has some of the most implausible lines I have ever heard.<br/><br/>The &#39;scientists&#39; loose the first of their own when one of these giant snakes attacks and snatches him to the waters below. As if by total magic, none of these &#39;scientists&#39; can actually identify what took him. Everyone sees the snake but everyone HAS to ask &quot;what was THAT?&quot;.<br/><br/>No-one in the group appeared to be over 30 and none of them seemed to been prepared for life in the jungle - but on board Johnson&#39;s beaten-up plywood boat, the &#39;Bloody Mary&#39;, all seems to be well and a laptop computer buzzes away in the background.<br/><br/>When Gordon Mitchell is taken, he&#39;s in a state of paralysis. The snake (weighing a little less than a ton, we can surmise by it&#39;s size) can easily slip through the inter-twining beams of a native&#39;s jungle hut without so mucha creak of a bamboo rafter. The remaining group decide to torch the jungle hut to kill the snake. As it happens, this scene takes place during a wild and torrential rainstorm - but the jungle hut,you can guess, goes up in flames like a tinder-dry forest.<br/><br/>One viewer left a note to say that they &#39;turned the movie off when the monkey died&#39;. Just goes to show how much people were really paying attention to this absolute cinematic wreck. Another said &quot;brilliant movie&quot;, followed by no less than 6 exclamation marks. Enough said.<br/><br/>What a load of utter bilge. Come on … it&#39;s got more holes in it than Swiss cheese. This movie is great. Well thought out. The plot was perfect. If you are excepting a &quot;King Cobra&quot; movie, you are excepting the wrongest thing ever. King Cobra didn&#39;t have a good plot. My mother who thinks horror movies are cheesy, loved this movie and said that it was educational about anacondas. The first may have been a big stink but this one is perfect! I strongly recommend this movie! Don&#39;t have any second thoughts, just buy or rent the damn thing or better than ever, buy it and if you don&#39;t think it is good, well you are nuts and need to get out more. At least learn more about what a good movie needs. I recommend this! I know I said That already but I love this movie that much! There's no enjoyably outlandish hiss to this variation on the formula, and no Ice Cube or Owen Wilson, either. This time, a ship of capitalist fools (and no movie stars, unless you count utility player Morris Chestnuta headliner) steams along the river in Borneo.
