Carnivorous/Lockjaw: Rise of the Kulev Serpent (2009)

- written 5-1-09

Summary: Alan sneaks out of his house to ask his best friend from next door, Becky, if she wants to go with him exploring a nearby sugar cane field. But they get sidetracked and end up exploring the house of a poor neighbor and his son. Then they steal a box containing a dangerous voodoo object called the Kulev stick. Alan needs a way to deal with abusive dad and decides to use the Kulev stick as a pencil and draw a picture of a serpent eating his dad using. Dad dies minutes later. Now, present day where Alan and Becky are now happily married until today when a group of young adults on their way to a party come zooming down the road and kill Becky. Alan wants his revenge and you can guess how it will happen.           Overall: This was a bad film. The characters aren’t interesting and the whole running down of the lady but no one notices thing was just preposterous. And the stick and the serpent and whatever else made this unbelievable and just not fun. I have more questions after watching it, than before. Bad, bad film with terrible acting. And why promote “DMX” when the guy is barely in it. Has his rap career taken that much of a plunge it’s “straight to DVD monster movies”? Sad. Skip it.           Comparison: Snake Island meets Troll
