Battlingtheir way upriver, the explorers brave poisonous insects, ferocious crocodiles and savage headhunters, unaware they're being stalked by an even greater danger: a nest of giant anacondas, voracious, fifty-foot-long flesh-eaters who'll stop at nothing to protect their breeding ground, the blood orchid's home.

Starting with this movie, the series is tied together with a flower that comes from the jungle in Borneo called Perrinnia Immortalis. It is supposed to have properties that can keep a person young and/or cure serious diseases like cancer.
PLOT/SUMMARY: I'm going to keep this brief.
Wexel-Hall, a pharmaceutical firm sends a team to the jungle to search for the Blood Orchid. This flower blooms only once every seven years and it exists in only a small part of the jungle in Borneo. Problem is there are giant Anaconda's in the same area. The size of the giant anaconda's is taken as proof of the the Blood Orchid's potency since snakes grow throughout their lives. They take the logical leap of assuming the snakes eat the Blood Orchids. Once there, they have to find a ship captain to take them upriver during the rainy season. They find an American named Bill Johnson and he agrees for a lot of cash. Shortly after the journey begins, the ship is destroyed and the group is stranded in the jungle with giant Anaconda's who are in mating season looking to eat them.
COMMENTS: This is the second and last of the Anaconda movies to receive a theatrical release.
-Ultimately, I can only judge these giant snake movies on their originality and special effects. They all have pretty much the same idea. A giant snake goes hunting people. You have your good guys and the batch of flawed people you know are going to die. What remains is how many original ideas can you come up with for these movies. It's not easy but it can be done. The idea of hunting for the 'fountain of youth' is not knew but it's new in this type of movie.
-The idea of the snakes being long lived and therefore larger is nicely tied into the plot of the hunt for the Blood Orchid.
-I doubt a person like Bill Johnson in this movie is going to stop worrying about money and start helping his fellow man.
-For me, this is the second best movie in the series and the next two are not good.
WHAT"S THE SAME:
-A giant snake in a jungle
-A giant snake regurgitating it's victims.
-Greedy corporation
-Know it all guy in the jungle who will help for a price
-Know it all guy in the jungle who will help for a price but isn't really doing it for money. He just wants to show how tough and hardened he is to a hot girl who he wants to impress.
-Genius girl who falls in love with Neanderthal.
-Whiny complaining girl.
-Corporate guy who sells out his people.
-Corporate guy who sells out his people gets eaten.
WHAT ISN'T THE SAME: Hunting for the Blood Orchid or for all intents and purposes, 'The Fountain of Youth'.
-going over a waterfall
-poisonous spider
-Whiny complaining guy also.
-The ending doesn't include a scene with an egg hatching or a baby monster slithering away.
RECOMMENDATIONS: I'm giving this movie 3 stars. It's interesting for awhile but the special effects become inconsistent in the second half of the movie.
Recommended obviously for fans of the 'Anaconda' series and for fans of SYFY channel giant reptile and snake movies.
There is no single lead character in this movie, rather each member take turns leading the group and making bad decisions that lead to members of its expedition being eaten. There is no true bad guy here, just one with a different set of ideals and priories.
Anacondas: The Hunt For The Blood Orchid is the type of movie where you predict who among the group will be the first to be eaten, and all of the others in line to follow. Getting this right is really the best part of watching the movie. Although even that is not enough to make the film a satisfying experience. Its just too easy. Since the characters are totally unrelatable, by the time the death toll reaches halfway, you find yourself routing for the snake to just eat the rest to put them out of their misery and end the movie.
Its not science fiction nor suspense, though not for the lack of trying. Its just going through the same familiar monster movie motions we've seen a million times before. It you like watching movies of wild animals doing things and behaving in ways we all know they would never do, then Anacondas: The Hunt For The Blood Orchid might be the movie made for you.

Blu-rayで、欲しいですね。
I was pleasantly surprised by the film, the effects have not really improved since the first film but they never get so bad that they detract from the dumb fun that this film offers.
Switch off your mind and enjoy!!
