The blood orchid - A rare flower that holds the secret of eternal life and a fortune to the pharmaceutical company that finds it. Led by a two-fisted soldier of fortune, a scientific expedition is sent deep into the jungles of Borneo to locate and bring back samples of the legendary plant. Battling their way upriver, the explorers brave poisonous insects, ferocious crocodiles and savage headhunters, unaware they're being stalked by an even greater danger: a nest of giant anacondas, voracious, fifty-foot-long flesh-eaters who'll stop at nothing to protect their breeding ground, the blood orchid's home.

Tales from the Paulside

Paul Lê

"The best kind of innocuous, diverting entertainment."

Surprisingly, it takes more than 40 minutes before the anacondas actually ensnare their first trekker.

The film goes through its paces without a scrap of joy, stretching its 97 minutes out to the point of abject boredom.

Despite shallow, been-there-done-that characters and plot, the action in Anacondas is well-paced, and the special effects are good enough (rubber alligator aside) to blow 90 minutes.

It's a bad movie, really bad, and in the end I was just baffled that this was actually made.
