Snake Movies

:snake::snake::snake::snake::snake::snake::snake:

i was just eating pizza for lunch and thinking about the long holiday weekend next week. i was thinking about how i would be spending that time and thought i could watch a movie or two.

please share your recommendations on movies with snakes in them. are there any good ones that are about snakes or features them? (i think i can name a bad one lol.) So what are the movies, film, documentaries, anime, etc. with serpentes?

:snake::snake::snake::snake::snake::snake::snake:

The only one I can think of that features snakes in a more positive light, was this cute animated film called Saharah that came out this year. Really nice designs! Inaccurate as heck but at least it's better than Snakes on a Plane lol

Edit: whoops wrong SAhara. this one? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4466894/ this one doesnt have Matthew McCoughnaghey but does have cartoon cobras. :)

There's a cute snake game on steam called Snake Pass! I haven't played it, but looks cute and gameplay seems interesting, since you have to "think like a snake". I sort of felt like having existing knowledge of how real snakes move would be confusing for us though. LOL

Nope! This one http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4466894/

I watched a one hour show today call Man Eating Super Snakes which is a documentary about African Rock Pythons and how they are invading Florida; in particlar the Everglades. They talk about the potential for those snakes to breed with Burmese Pythons to create a very dangerous Man Eating Super Snake. As you can guess, it was a very slanted antisnake show.

Nature documentaries are good. They have reptile episodes on shows like Life. Planet Earth's another good nature show, though they don't really have animal features, just biomes. I don't remember which one it was, but there was a section about these garter snakes waking up from brumation to mate, and some of the slower males had a few tricks up their sleeves for catching up with the early risers. :D

The jungle book with kaa in it?? Lol

Honestly didn't notice that until you pointed it out, haha!

When these snakes were emerging from brumation, they all huddled together, creating a giant pile of mating and warmth, which attracted the slower males. The late males then excreted hormones that made the other snakes believe they were females, so the already warmed up male snakes rushed over to the cold males and rubbed all over to get them warm as well. I'm sure there was more than just rubbing, but still. Pretty dang clever.

Just remembered watching this series called "Inside Nature's Giants"... which might not be up your alley, but they did dissect a big snake (can't remember what), a lion, and a whale over the course of the series.

The Anaconda movies! I'm surprised they haven't been mentioned yet :snake:

Who couldn't love a snake that sounds like Winnie the Pooh?

I'm going with old school Disney's Robin Hood.

Love Sir Hiss!

I was going to mention it lol. I was watching that for the first time since I was really little and realized that the scene where the baby anacondas are falling out of the trees the snakes are actually Red Tail Boas! There might have been other species but the Red Tails were most prominent.

I watched a documentary call "TITANABOA" about the largest known pre-historic serpent ever discovered. It dwarfed the modern green anaconda, much, much bigger, and they suspect it was largely a swimmer like the anacondas.

Just noticed those are up on Youtube. May have to check them out, sounds fascinating.

watch "titanoboa" is a really cool documentary about part of a snake skeleton they found. Titanoboa was the largest snake ever to exist...... It was a good documentary and they make a life sized replica at the end.... really cool!

great recommendation, I saw it last week and it did not disappoint. I don't know how old you guys are but I wish I could still watch shows like O'Shea big adventure. Sadly those type of herp shows are replaced by "reality" tv.

Not exactly a snake movie but close enough.

Another rec for animated Sahara it was fun and enjoyable to watch also recommend anything voiced by David Attenborough i know Planet Earth cave episode had a cave snake in it catching bats also Life and Planet Earth 2(No snakes to my knowledge but a amazing watch) also recommend Madagascar no snakes but amazing crocodilians bbc North America had a snake scene so basicly anything done by bbc and Attenborough is amazing and worth a watch snakes or no snakes i also recommend Untamend Americas and Built For The Kill no snakes but also great and Night Stalkers very cool and kinda scarey(Had a scene with most likely poachers) and for something with a brief little scene with a wild and smiling BP there is Wild Ones can you tell what i watch all the time lol most of these are on netflix but i have canadian netflix so titles might be different

Not a movie, and not "new".

But I have recently thought about re-watching the "Crocodile Hunter" episodes with Steve Irwin. Esp. the early ones.

I know, I know, some people loved him, some hated him, some thought he took to many risks. But in my opinion, the LOVE and enthusiasm he had for all these animals was always so amazing and refreshing.
I know he changed MY mind about some animals, looking past my fear to really see the beauty.

I think I may just have to watch some episodes, haven't seen any of them in many years. Gorgeous snakes in most episodes, too.

Now that I think about it, I used to like watching Jeff Gordon, too.

I need some "easy" watching with beautiful reptiles and animals and I think that will fit the bill ;)

Movie wise, I only know of really stupid movies with snakes in them. There is a really cute book about a Green Tree Python, though, LOL...

Here is a interesting looking documentary
