This, my fellow movie geek, is why Mystery Science Theater 3000 should never have been cancelled. Recognizable names and faces were utterly wasted in this US DTV release.
Severe lapses in logic, a telegraphed ending that one could see from the film's beginning, and an obviously computer generated snake were more than enough to kill one's interest. But wait! There's more! The snake behaves in a way that is totally uncharacteristic of a constrictor, and the writing/acting is over the top on the lame meter.
I feel sorry for Robert Englund. With his playing Freddy in six films and a television series, he will now only be associated with horror.
If you feel you must watch this film, you can A) bring some friends over and turn it into the MST3K Home Game, or B) listen for the reference to the Friday the 13th films. That is the film's only high point.
