Don't Mess With Mothernature

[edit] Errors

Seth has a spectacle shape on the back of its hood (similar to the Mickey Mouse head), which is the trademark for the Indian cobra (naja naja) not the king cobra (ophiophagus hannah) as it should be.

Efren Ramirez, who played Pedro in Napoleon Dynamite, played the role of teen boy in this movie. He was killed by the snake during a sexy game of hide and seek with a girl in the woods
