Snakes On A Train – August 15th, 2006

What’s It About

2006’s Snakes on a Plane is a sort of charming B-movie pastiche that aims for midnight cult-movie status. What makes Snakes on a Plane work, plot-wise is that you can’t get off of a plane mid-air – there’s no escape. The Asylum’s Snakes on a Train, however, is aware that fleeing a train is a bit more realistic, so they really ratchet up the insanity of the plot. A woman afflicted by a Mayan curse has dozens of snakes rapidly hatching within her body, and she needs to get to Los Angeles from her native Mexico to find a shaman to undo the curse. She takes a train, and obviously, the snakes escape their fleshy incubator and wreak havoc for the passengers onboard.
