Beware Boiúna

*Beware Boiúna* is very much about getting this group of people into the rainforest for a vague reason and then dropping its story points purely for a bloody snake massacre. It is chock-full of jerky camera movements jittering to an obnoxiously loud sound mix. Repetitive loud noises in a film basically equate to elongated jump scares. *Beware Boiúna* isn't stingy when it comes to butchering people in countless slimy and slithery ways, but it's all something that could have been avoided if they didn't make terrible decisions. https://bit.ly/Bouina

This is a worthy spiritual successor to Anaconda, which is now coming up on 30 years old. This movie does have all of the elements of Anaconda updated for a modern audience and with a lovely snake to boot. It doesn't lean into cliché comedy, but instead focuses on the horror of actually running into a Titanboa or similarly sized reptile in an area where there is no help to be had. It's a great movie, it's well acted and well produced. The effects are on point and they aren't shy of showing their marvelous snake either. I think you'll enjoy this
