Review of Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004) by Samantha R — 19 Jun 2012

This sequel to Anaconda looks strained, tiresome and overall it's a boring film that just misses the mark. The film has a poorly written script, a bad cast and poor effects. This is very much like the first film where the filmmakers made a killer creature horror film, but they didn't care how it turned out.

This one didn't do it for me and I felt it was quite horrible with nothing really going for it and it just didn't deliver anything fun or memorable. I've seen my fare share of these types of films, and this is one of the worst that I had the misfortune to see.

The film is just not fun to watch, while these films are supposed to be, this was just poorly made trash that simply didn't deliver. The Anacondas series is horrible, and with this sequel you can understand why.

You get a broader picture as to why these films simply don't deliver anything worth seeing. This is one of those sequels that is worse than the first. The film suffers from a bad script, a poor cast and basically everything that made the first film forgettable.

As low-budget horror goes, this one misses the mark. There's nothing memorable about this. This is just a poorly executed horror film with no payoff. If you've seen the first film, then you don't need to see this film, it's all the same in the end with little substance or hint of effective terror, which in turn make these films not worth seeing.

Don't expect anything if you decide to watch this film. This is standard low-budget horror that fails to deliver what it tries to do.
