"Sssssuspence"

Films: Sssssss (1973)

Alias: Tim McGraw, David Blake

Type: Man-Made

Location: Civilized area

Height/Weight: Go from that of an average human to that of a cobra.

Affiliation: Good

Summary: For the last time, mad scientists, turning everyone into a supposedly invulnerable species is a fool's errand. Especially when that species happens to be something not a lot of people are comfortable with.

History: Dr. Carl Stoner was maniacally convinced that the world would end in some way or another. So before judgement day, he would perfect his skills in turning people into nuke-surviving snakes, because cockroaches are apparently overrated in this guy's mind. His first subject, Tim, was a failure, so David's on the chopping block now.

Notable Kills: All involve snakes, but he manages to sneak a black mamba into someone's shower. Owee.

Final Fate: Tim's left to suffer, and Stoner gets repeatedly bitten by a cobra he stupidly released. David gets attacked by a mongoose, so nobody wins.

Powers/Abilities: None

Weakness: Anything conventional.

Scariness Factor: 3-We will not deny that cobras are really deadly, but Stoner's honestly the one who needs to be avoided. Aside from his unethical experiments, he knows just the right serpents to utterly destroy you.

Trivia: -Just a head's up, none of the snakes on set were defanged. Everyone was working here with very venomous snakes.

-If you think this film deserves to be forgotten, we remind you now that the two executive producers behind this would go on to help out with "Jaws" later on...
