Night of the Snakehead Fish (2003) User Reviews

Better than expected

It wasn't fantastic, but for a low-budget flick it was okay. The acting was so-so, with the sheriff character being the best of the players. Took my mind of something bad one night and gave me a few unintentional laughs. The special effects were not anything to get overly excited about. The snakehead fish looked like a kids toy and the scary jump scenes were a bit forced. The sound was good and I enjoyed the steadycam work which was displayed throughout. Wasn't particularly scary to me, but was a fun flick none the less.

If, like me, you find snakehead fish to be intriguing then you will probably want to check this film out. It does provide some insight into the snakehead terrors that plagued woods a few years back. It is a strange phenomenon and I'm glad a film was made about it.

Recommended if you're in the mood for something so bad it's good.

What Drugs Were They On???

This movie has to be by far the worse movie ever.I think Ed Wood would be rolling in his grave if he saw this movie.Besides the fact you can tell it's really really low budget movie,the terrible actors,the dragging on and on of the plot (the snake head fish looks a Billy Bass fish torn off the plaque).Those I did find the homage to Megadeth as one of the greatest bands very appealing.Overall if you in the mood for a comedy than a horror film watch it.Also check out the music video in the extras....not bad.The bloopers are pretty much like watching the actual movie.All the actors (I take it are locals and friends of the director) have good skill at making the monologue dull and as if they were trying to make it look as if they have never acted before.Overall I would call it a grade F movie
