The
1968 horror classic, Snake People, is being brought back to video
to celebrate one of Boris Karloff's final films in which he plays the
part of the mysterious Mr. Van Molder. This suspense-filled Mexican-American
production of the supernatural and evil native rituals is filled with zombies,
cannibalistic women, an evil dwarf, and a scientist-turned voodoo priest.
When
French army officer, Captain Labiche, arrives at the secluded island of Coaibi,
he enters a world that is hung in a precious balance between the mysteries of
voodoo, an evil snake cult, and legions of zombies worshipping their corrupt
god.
He
becomes involved in the hunt for Mr. Van Molder's, niece, Anabella, not knowing
of Van Molder's devotion to the supernatural and the powers of telekinesis. To
add to the mystery of this strange island village, men are disappearing due to a
tribe of cannibalistic women. Somehow, this all ties into bringing Damballa, the
mysterious zombie god, out of hiding.
