In 1986, in Tennessee, the father of the boys Lester and Duff Daniels is murdered by a snake in a weird ceremony. Twenty years later, Duff (John T. Woods) collects snakes while Les (Michael Shanks) fears them.
One day, Duff visits the Kitawa Indian Screaming Hawk (Ben Cardinal) to buy snakes and sees a small snake in a jar. He decides to buy the snake, but Screaming Hawk tells that the species is not for sale. He explains that it is the dangerous Unteka that has three rules to raise it: (1) never let the snake out of the jar; (2) never let it eat living animals; and (3) never fear the heart of the snake. Duff steals the Unteka and brings the snake home. However, he accidentally drops the jar and the snake eats his cat. The snake gets bigger and bigger eating animals and the locals. Now Les, his former girlfriend Erin (Siri Baruc) and Screaming Hawk have to stop the Unteka to save the local population.
"Mega Snake" is a funny and entertaining Sy Fy production absolutely underrated in IMDb. The story uses elements of "Gremlins", "Anaconda" and "Jaws" and the director Tibor Takács makes a good B-movie with his limited budget combined with humor and funny characters. My vote is six.
Title (Brazil): "Megasnake"
