Okay enough for the purposes of this kind of movie, honestly a bit better than usual, we had a lot dumber and cannon fodder-prone characters in movies about giant animals bent on eating them. The characters mostly tend to fall on the stereotyped side and often can be annoying (the more likeable character is the borneo pet monkey Kong, not even joking), but aren’t total dumbasses and can actually make some sensible decisions or manage to survive the odds.
#Anaconda cast 2004 movie
a quite respectable one, with less recognizable faces (with exception like Morris Chestnut of Boyz N The Hood fame and Matthew Madsen, the latter also going from the live-action Dead Or Alive videogame movie from a role in Christopher Nolan’s Tenet), but still, quite solid performances. I will admit that this movie already has the odds stacked against it, with the absurd and surprising star studded cast of the first Anaconda giving way to…. Orchids made snakes bigger and older, basically.
But as the group finds out, the Borneo is also home to extremely big anacondas, which apparently have reached that gargantuan size due to an increased longevity brought upon by the blood orchid being part of the food chain there. The plot this time concerns a group of researchers sent on an expedition in Borneo by a pharmaceautical company to seize the titular “Blood Orchid”, a flower which they believe can be used to create a sort of “fountain of life” potion or whatnot.

Though worry not, even if you didn’t see the original Anaconda (which we covered sometimes ago), this is a stand-alone sequel with a completely different cast and a completely separate plot, with directing duties handled to Dwight Hubbard Little (Marked For Death, Free Willy 2, Halloween 4).Īside from proving than indeed what it’s old it’s eventually new again, there’s the fact that today this kind of sequel would never reach theathers, heck, not even the first/original movie would. Let’s go back to a slightly older time, not implying it was a better time per se, just saying that back in the late 90s – early 2000s you still could make B-movies about snakes with good effects and released widely in theathers, and this is true for Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Archid.
