Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Dendroaspis Polylepis or Black Mamba
I expected to see more of the snake than the cast,but this movie is thrilling.Dendroaspis Polylepis is the most aggresive,poisonous and the fastest snake in the world.Normally a Cobra like Naja Naja or King Cobra(Ophiophagus Hannah)would raise it's head backward before attacking,but black mamba attacks without warnings.
Klaus kinski's interpretation in this movie is excellent to me.A good thriller,Oliver Reed has always been one of my idols in British screens.
It's a story of a little ... Read More
Rating: - Snake in An Apartment (with Terrorist Killers, Too)
Originally released in 1981, I remember the movie poster featuring the hard sell tagline: "See It Before the Lines Form!" Wishful thinking, as it turned out, but this is still a pretty good suspense film, with at least a couple of extraordinarily skin-crawlingly intense scenes.

Plus, as a bonus, the snake used in the movie is an actual Black Mamba snake, not some cheesy special ... Read More
Rating:  - not much bite to this snake horror
a boy gets the worlds deadiest snake by mistake from a pet store???? huh what pet store is going to get the killer anyway but that is just the first of so many plot holes that i won't even talk about any others . just a fine cast wasted in this thrillesss non scary horror/suspence movie. a compleate mess and a waste of time.
Rating:  - Badly marketed on release...this is a smart thriller
The movie "Venom" is not so much a scary monster movie as it is an intelligent and involving thriller. In fact the black mamba (reportedly the worlds deadliest snake) has very little screen time and serves merely as a device to move along the plot and raise the tension level of a household held hostage by ciminals and under siege by police.
The plot concerns a small band of criminals (a chauffeur played by Oliver Reed, a sexy maid played by the amazing Susan George and a slick professional killer ... Read More
Rating:  - Bland but occasionally interesting
Oliver Reed and Klaus Kinski in the same film! What were they thinking? Kinski's mercurial temperament, of course, has attained the heights of legend. His collaborations with German filmmaker Werner Herzog in such pictures as "Fitzcarraldo," "Cobra Verde," and "Nosferatu" were brilliant examples of the power of his talent, but were also notable for the behind the scenes hostility between director and actor. Herzog even made a documentary about his stormy relationship with Kinski, "My Best Fiend," in which ... Read More
