    Snake-Armed And Dangerous...

    In CURSE II: THE BITE, Lisa and Clark (Jill Schoelen and J. Eddie Peck) just happen to be tooling along through a government testing site in the desert. Shockingly, there are rattlesnakes about. Even more shockingly, said serpents are radioactive! Of course, Clark is quickly bitten by one, which causes his hand to mutate.

    As is the common result of radiated snakebites, Clark's arm turns into a murderous snake monster. The rest of Clark joins in on the ensuing mayhem.

    This movie is a gore-drenched, semi-classic of utter absurdity. It exists in a universe where Jamie "Klinger" Farr is a gun-toting hero. Bo Svenson co-stars as the angry sheriff. Fans of Ms. Schoelen will enjoy her here, since her cuteness knows no bounds. Fans of Director Frederico Prosperi (aka: Fred Goodwin) need look no further, since this is his first and last directorial effort...
