Some of these pictures and descriptions may give away plot details that you might not want to know before watching a film.Ībbott and Costello Meet the Mummy (1955) (Some Westerns seem to think they have to show a rattlesnake somewhere just to prove they're a Western.) Snakes can add tension and a little extra drama, like a gun, a car chase, or a sexual situation, but I often get the feeling that they are added unrealistically just for the convenience of the plot. Snakes are the most commonly-used reptile in movies, because many people are afraid of them and because, since there are snakes that are capable of killing people and the audience is already predisposed to believe that all snakes are dangerous a snake can be used as a convenient (and cheap) evil adversary or obstacle for a character to overcome. (Seriously, if they're so often wrong about snakes, can we believe anything we see in movies?) The intent here is to have fun documenting some of the many ridiculous misrepresentations of snakes in movies, along with some of the times when they got it right. I'm not going to try to list TV episodes, commercials, animated films, or nature documentaries. Most of these are live-action feature films or tv movies that use real, artificial, or special effect snakes (CGI, VFX, etc.) If you know of one I should add, let me know.īlue links lead to pictures and information about the movies and the snake scenes. When I watch or learn of a new one, I'll add it to the list. This is not meant to be a list of every movie with a snake in it, just some of those I know about. (See a compact version of this list with no pictures.)
