Premise:

Premise:

Serpent (2017)

Starring: Sarah Dumont, Tom Ainsley
Director: Amanda Evans


Premise:
A couple takes a work trip to the Australian Outback. Unfortunately a black mamba crawls into their tent during the tent.

My Take:
The movie manages to keep the suspense cranked up evil though about half of it takes place in a tent with a snake. The characters are flushed out as well so the viewer actually cares about their fate.

Rating: So Good
