An American-led group of Russian soldiers capture one big-ass killer snake and, because nobody ever learns anything, it escapes. The U.S. Air force cargo plane it’s on is shot down by Chechen rebels who are immediately gunned down by the Russian military and they get their hands on the dangerous cargo. William Zabka returns as the former-police-deputy-now-special-agent assigned to get this living weapon back in American hands and he hires an ex-baseball player hiding out in Russia (Dana Ashbrook) and his corduroy-rockin’ wife to transport the snake via his cargo truck. His wife’s Russian citizenship makes the usual customs issues a lot easier and the 100K payday gets the married smugglers on board. Zabka brings in a team of elite soldiers to assist in the transport, unbeknownst to them, the soldiers at the military base where the cargo was being contained have let the killer reptile loose. They all get stuck in the base and the proficient, acid-spitting killing machine picks ‘em off at its leisure. A lone surviving officer clues in the dwindling survivors that there’s more than one predator on site. I’m a Dana Ashbrook homer which means this one was already in my good graces and I love a poorly-rendered cgi monster as much as the next easily amused boob, so this is one hell of a good time in my book. The leads are pretty damn likable and there’s enough stupid monster fun to keep boredom at bay.
