I’d like to think that someone got fired over this movie. The really amazing thing about Boa vs. Python is that it got made at all. Then, after it got made, it aired on the Sci-Fi Channel. Now, we all know that the Sci-Fi Channel is not exactly known for excellence in programming, but this is an all time low.

The fact that someone pitched Boa vs. Python as a concept, and someone else said, «Yeah! Great!» is just plain frightening. I almost can’t blame the writer, the director, the actors, or the terrible CGFX team. They did what they had to do. The worst thing about Boa vs. Python is that it came into existence at all. 2 out of 10 stars. One for the python, one for the boa.

Film / Boa vs. Python

Boa vs. Python is a 2004 Syfy Channel Original Movie, starring David Hewlett, Jaime Bergman, Kirk B. R. Woller, and Adam Kendrick.

A dangerous cargo containing a genetically engineered super-python is lost, again. This time the giant python escapes due to it waking during transport on a highway. To track it the CIA recruits the aid of a snake focused herpetologist and marine biologist who specializes in tracking equipment to apply the latter’s tools to the former’s giant boa constrictor. The hope, that the boa’s tracking abilities and keeness to seek out a rival will help them locate and eliminate the python. At the same time, the amoral tycoon who arranged for the python’s genetic engineering as the ultimate sport sets out with his team of big game hunters.

This film provides examples of:

• Behemoth Battle: Exactly what you’d expect, between a 75 foot Scarlet Boa and an 80 foot Reticulated Python. Starts in a nightclub during the climax and carries into the underground subway system. Betty wins by default when she’s knocked out of the way of a train with the stun spike, leaving the Python to be decapitated by it. However, she was winning at the time anyway.
• Continuity Nod: Agent Sharpe mentions the events of Python II a few times.
• Crossover: Technically between Boa and Python, though the events of the first Boa film are never mentioned and the boa in this film was selectively bred to be so huge instead of being wild.
• Gentle Giant: Betty to a degree. She’s still dangerous, but generally is fairly docile unless provoked. She’s perfectly content for Dr. Emmett to feed her by hand and isn’t bothered when Monica accidentally steps on her during her introduction.
• Fluffy the Terrible: The boa’s name is Betty.
• Follow the Leader: Likely the idea for selling a «Versus» movie came from Alien vs. Predator and Freddy vs. Jason, which came out in 2003 and 2004 respectively.
• Off with His Head!: The python is run over by a train, decapitating him.
• Red Is Heroic: Betty is red in color in comparison to the green python and is the ‘heroic’ one, as while not necessarily ‘good’ she only attacks humans if provoked and is opposing the far more actively dangerous python. Notably, nearly all of her kills are members of Broddick’s team, with the only two exceptions being a pair of soldiers who attacked her first, and even then they were largely killed by their own stupidity, as the worst she did was somewhat lightly whacking one with her tail.
• Shown Their Work:
  • While Dr. Emmett mentions Betty’s species is the «Scarlet Queen Boa», which is fictional, his comment on her species being unusual in that it lays eggs is accurate. Unlike pythons, which belong to a completely different family, boas exclusively give birth to live young.
  • A boa and python being antagonist to one another is correct as the two constrictor families, if brought together, perceive each other as rivals or prey.
• Snakes Are Sinister: Played straight with the maneating python, who was genetically engineered to be aggressive and dangerous to make for a better hunt. Subverted with Betty, who is fairly docile and only attacks humans when she’s provoked, and even then doesn’t seem to eat them like the python.
• Summon Bigger Fish: The premise: in order to track down the python, they recruit a scientist’s equally huge boa constrictor.
• Super Breeding Program: While not quite clarified in the film, trailers state Betty is the result of selective breeding to become so huge.

Boa vs. Python

After an overly ambitious businessman transports an 80-foot python to the United States, the beast escapes and starts to leave behind a trail of human victims. An FBI agent and a snake specialist come up with a plot to combat the creature by pitting it against a bioengineered, 70-foot boa constrictor. It’s two great snakes that snake great together!

«This is big. and big is nice» -Corporate Stooge, — Bad Movie Bets Ranked: boxd.it/5Q8IA Seeing snakes fight is surprisingly boring. Cheap and quickly made film with a convoluted plot. This doesn’t have the actors to support the ridiculous script nor does it possess the charm of some poorly made films. The real problem is that this film is just competent enough to lack that bad movie charm but not competent enough to be good. At least I give them credit for showing the snakes a lot, something I was predicting wouldn’t happen. This was a real slog.

Boa vs. Python.
86 minutos de duración.
Una película llamada Boa vs. Python.
Cuya portada es una boa gigante luchando contra una pitón gigante.
Helicópteros lanzando misiles.
Una ciudad de fondo.
En la contraportada puede leerse:
«Dos enormes y terroríficos depredadores enfrentados en una lucha de titanes donde morir es lo que menos importa y la supervivencia de uno de los animales será la destrucción de la población entera».
Bien.
Empiezan a luchar en el minuto 83.
Boa vs. Python.
En el minuto 83.
Luchan durante menos de 3 minutos.
Menos de un minuto en una discoteca (sí, en serio), donde prácticamente no se enfrentan, y una escena final en una estación de metro hecha con efectos especiales por ordenador.…

More like bad cgi poo looking grey blob vs Lego movie snake. I stopped this half an hour in to watch Hard Boiled instead and finish this later, it was the right choice.

what is the greatest scene in film history? the climax of se7en?
the italian restaurant in the godfather?
perhaps the shower scene from psycho?
no. an 80 ft python performs oral sex on a girl in a car moments after devouring her boyfriend. she fails to notice the switcheroo. we’re lucky to live in a time where we can specifically pinpoint the moment art peaked.

It is weird that this wasn’t made by The Asylum. It has everything that one would expect to see in an Asylum creature flick but there seemed to be a budget. Well, more than what Asylum would have used. The snakes look about as ridiculous as you would expect. The story was okay. Not much to keep my attention throughout the movie but the highlight was definitely the «rave» that had 50 people and the overhyped DJ. That entire scene had me laughing. The music was generic late 90s techno. The glow-in-the-dark paint reminded me of Batman Forever. I also wonder if they were playing music while filming because whatever the extras were dancing to was definitely not the music that was in the movie.

I was so bored for an entire hour but then the final act had a disgustingly hot singlet-wearing man with a flamethrower, so :3 O yeah and the snakes have a little fight ofc but I did wish they’d just kiss instead

Boa Vs. Python. The giant snake mashup that you never knew you needed (and will probably wished you hadn’t). 87 minutes of pure, unadulterated schlock and iffy CGI, like only the late 90s/early 00s knew how to do properly. In true exploitation style, the events depicted on the poster should be ignored, because that’s the film they would have liked to make rather than the one we got, but that isn’t to say that the one we got isn’t good, because Boa Vs. Python is a cursed deity classic… I mean a God Damn classic. Inexplicable buffoonery, gratuitous nudity, guns, bums, dumb soldiers and it mostly takes place in a place where you are unlikely to see very many people.…

Lowkey kinda slaps, this movie was way better then I expected, while yeah its not the best it’s actually average and I wouldn’t mind watching it again as its a fun film but hey what can I say. I’m a succer for these films
