I didn't intend to watch this. It was just on quite late on a Friday night when I was failing to do anything else.
This is not a good film. It's a stereotypical, by-the-numbers cheap Hollywood horror movie, made (probably very quickly) simply to make money. A man in small town America ends up getting bitten by snakes and embodying a number of serial killers. I guessed the ending, and exactly which characters were going to die and how, in the first ten minutes.
None of this is to say this is the worst film I've ever seen. After all, I managed to watch it to the end. As long as you know exactly what to expect, and aren't expecting anything other than your bog standard Hollywood horror, you won't exactly be disappointed - just unsurprised.
Rating: 2 out of 5
