Curse II: The Bite

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...

Great movie. Alot of fun. The people who hate this movie are all idiots. Don't listen to them. Snakes rule!

This is never explained but i borrowed that line partially from the movie The Reptile (1966).

Also can someone tell me what was the deal with the gas station attendant n his hidden creature?

I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs n didn't enjoy it then. In fact, i still find part one better.

This one is very boring.

The first kill happens around the 55th min n that too nothing scary or gory bah it. The effects are very lousy and add to it the atrocious editing where u can't make out wots going on.

While the first part was based on Color Out Of Space, this one doesn't have anything to do with the first part or the book.

The lead female character is so mean that she leaves the small girl all alone in the house knowing that the girl's parents are killed by her boyfriend's hand cum snake.

In Stepfather, Jill Schoelen was 24 but she played a 16 year old in it and her nudity was a put off n uncalled for.

But here in Curse 2 we dont get to see her nude inspite of an offscreen sex scene n a lousy shower scene.

The plot - A man is bitten by a snake and somehow his bitten hand undergoes transformation into a hideous snake monster, which kills everyone who comes closer to him. The man tries to run away from his girlfriend to protect her but the girlfriend pursuits him n puts herself in danger while the local sheriff, his deputies n the town's doctor (Pinocchio nose fella) wants to track and destroy the monster once and for all.

The movie has a lil gore but tension, suspense, atmosphere is totally missing.

Okay, I'm glad the only thing that this and the first film have in common is they both have scenes with REALLY REALLY REALLY religious people. While this one is a little better than the CURSE it is not a great film, it should have been titled something else, maybe then I could enjoy it more. Maybe just The Bite, or do that Hollywood thing and put THE BYTE! But then people may think it's about a computer!

On a scale of ONE to TEN the CURSE II:THE BITE gets a 5! Because it's the sequel of the movie with the guy from Stand By Me in it!

The movie is lousy, I won't pretend it isn't. But it will always rank in my Top 10 list of Most Erotic Movies Of All Time, because of one scene near the end of the film. Of course eroticism is subjective, but in my own humble opinion this film contains some of the most erotic footage ever committed to film. Fans of Showgirls (which I found about as erotic as corned beef) will probably not agree, but fans of Dario Argento's brand of erotic horror, or of JoBeth Williams towards the end of Poltergeist, should really check out The Bite (as it is known in England). Skip through the first hour or so if you wish - go on, I won't tell anyone - but that one scene will amply reward you.
