snake on a train start a mexican couple brujo ( a. j. castro ) and alma ( julia ruiz ) cross the boarder into the u and they then illegally board a seventeen hour train to los angeles . however alma family do not approve of her and brujo relationship and place an ancient black magic curse on her that turn all her inside into snake and ain not life a btch . a the snake pour out of alma mouth and slither away to other part of the train they begin to infect the other passenger with the same unusual ailment . edit and direct by the mallachi brother ( although the imdb claim it just one guy use a pseudonym and peter mervis ) one have to say that i think snake on a train be crap and it as simple a that really . it seem the entire film be set up and make to cash in on the samuel l. jackson cult flick snake on a plane ( 2006 ) by every horror fan least favourite production company the asylum who specialise in rip off big budget hollywood flick and that style of money and film making be no more evident than here with snake on a train and make a film just because the title rhyme with a more successful film be not a good starting point . the script by eric forsberg be rubbish and for a start snake on a plane be great fun whereas snake on a train be a lot more serious and when you actually break it down and look at it this should have be much more light hearted . in fact it probably would have work well a an scary movie ( 2000 ) type spoof . you know something and i be struggle to find one positive thing to say about snake on a train it that bad . for a start the character be rubbish and it impossible to emote with anyone and the story be downright awful and make no sense ( if people spew all those small snake up where do the huge one come from . why do alma turn into the giant snake at the end . why do bujo kill the train driver . how be he go to stop the train once it reach los angeles . where do that typhoon come from at the end . ) and it take itself far too seriously and the first seventy odd minute be so boring and uneventful i be surprise i stay awake and it just a very and very poor film on just about every level . director mervis only have a few train carriage car set which all look pretty much alike so the film become very repetitive and dull to watch . there barely any blood or gore and there be some snake borrow under a few people skin and someone get shot and that about it . the special effect be rubbish too and the giant cgi snake at the end be truly awful and the least say about it the good . it not scary and there zero atmosphere and it a bit of a bore from start to finish . the real live snake be a problem too and they be just so docile and nonthreatening . if you look at any scene feature a real snake and an actor the snake never make any move towards them or act aggressively and in fact always appear to want to slither away in the opposite direction . shot in california technically the film be obviously low budget and it show and basically it look cheap because it be . the act isn not great not that the actor be give any sort of material to work with . snake on a train be rubbish and i be sorry but that how i feel and i do not quite know how else to describe it . i really can not see what anyone would get out of watch snake on a train and it really be that bad .
