I'd already given up to find Night of Cobra Woman when decide take a look on Youtube, to my dismay appear there two options over the movie, a VHS print subtitled in Spanish and last one fully restored in Spanish language no subtitled at all, of course I've chose with last one, thanks Youtube to allowed me once more a hard to find picture whereof I did watched in far off 1981 at my teenager years.
The plot is a slight confused to figure out at first glance, set in WWII on Philippines when a couple of nurses enter in a cave where the rock wall there a several figures displaying a big snake, one of them leaves the spot and another keep there and has been bitten for this snake, henceforth she doesn't died, meanwhile out of cave his co-worker is rapped by a Japanese soldier and has been shot afterwards, the bitten nurse Lena Azura (Marlene Clark) healed the wound of Francesca (Rosemary Gill) such snake poison somehow stop the ageing process on Lena that keep young forever, jumping to year 1972 when arrives a couple from Unicef the young girl Joanna (Joy Bang) and her boyfriend Stan Duff (Roger Garrett) on survey and find out an antidote for some kind of snake.
On the Institute Joanna receives an information about Lena that lives on rural area surround by dense forest with several snakes around, Duff bought a Eagle taking her there, on the meeting with Lena the Eagle attacks the special snake called Movini killing at once, Lena stays furious due this snake's poison keeps herself younger, thus she has making love with Duff and others men steadily to maintain young or Lena becomes into a snake, worst each man she makes love have a fastest ageing process, now she walking on the city and others places catching younger men aiming for keeping her human body.
A sort of exotic sexploitation blended horror, it's worth emphasizing the amateur make up whichever be part of the body, whether in skin, faces and eyes, really a bad work, that said the picture is fuzzy even pointless, displaying cockfighting and others off topic things, the special effects are in same level as well, anyway it was an average experience to see this weirdo and off color picture again, sad to know about the lead casting Joy Bang dropped out her career afthmaths.
Thanks for reading.
