Hisss – Indian Snake Lady movie



Hisss, from director Jennifer Lynch (Boxing Helena) is an upcoming big budget (by comparison) Indian lady snake flick that is making the rounds of buzzness on the internets. These snakelady films were pretty popular back in the day (sorry I can’t give better dates but all my reference books are packed up) both in India and outside the region (Thai, Cambodian, and Hong Kong cinema has plenty of snake lady films as well) Though there hasn’t been much movement on the snake lady front besides the microbudget Indian horror genre, this larger funded, Westerner directed effort might spawn a whole new mess of snake lady films slithering all the way to a theater near you (or more likely, a DVD store near you)
FX artist Robert Kurtzman is who to thank for the snakelady full body makeup effects.
Starring: Irrfan Khan, Mallika Sherawat, Jeff Douchette, Divya Dutta, Raman Trikha.
Mallika Sherawat is probably best known in the west for starring with Jackie Chan in The Myth, in India she is known for her great body, even people like me who only casually browse Indian film message boards looking for information on obscure junk know about her.
