Few things can elicit such unabashed audience enthusiasm as the sight of a rubber monster demolishing miniature cardboard cityscapes. But forget the japanese classic Godzilla (1954). It’s time for our second encounter with the frankensteinian production of Hong Kong based producer Joseph Lai. Made with his trademark "cut-and-paste" technique, Thunder of Gigantic Serpent tells a simple story of a little girl and her pet snake. Well not that simple as it involves terrorists, scientists working on a secret formula, bratty kids, gunfights, martial arts, panicking crowds, the police, the military, Pierre Kirby and all culminating in a rampaging monster reptile being shot at by fighter jets. All power to the imagination! (The Shockproof Film Festival)
