A Battle Of Epic Scales



Recently, i had the pleasure of watching one of the highlights of cinematical history with a bunch of my mates, well three if you count our other purchases, namely the timeless classics, frankenhooker and c.h.u.d. II, but im talking about Boa Vs. Python, billed as "A Battle of EPIC Scales!" ha ha, get it? so we knew immediately that this was going to rule. Basically heres a rundown of the story (spoiler inclued, sorry but it had to be done). Basically some twit decides it would be a wise business venture to transport an 80 foot reticulated python to the good ol' U.S. of A. FOOL! It escapes, of course and goes on a massive killing spree, leaving mutilated people everywhere. Our Heoes, Dr. Emmet and Monica, manage to track down a 70 foot boa constrictor named Betty, who they feel will be able to deal with the mischevious python and bad-guy Broddick. Much mirth and hijinx ensue until, after pretty much everybody in the film is dead or maimed, the two snakes battle it out in a crowded nightclub, where they both happen to stumble across some train tracks, get hit by a train and explode in a massive ball of flames. AWESOME!






The band Voivod also features an 80 foot reticulated python.. the comparisons are endless. observe....
