A dying mogul wages one last, desperate bid to extend his life, in the process pitting a beautiful herpetologist against the very slithering horror that she helped to create. Murdoch (John Rhys-Davies) is convinced that he can cheat death by drawing on the regenerative power of the elusive blood orchid. But when Murdoch's doctor tests the experimental serum on a baby snake, the tiny serpent grows into an unstoppable monster overnight, devouring the doctor whole before breaking free from the lab and embarking on a gruesome rampage. Now, it's up to fearless herpetologist Amanda (Crystal Allen) and her team of scientists to collect the coveted orchids while avoiding both Murdoch's gang of heavily armed thugs, and the giant abomination that will prey on anything or anyone who crosses its path. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
