| Ostia! Apparently is post-dinosaurs, so most probably this beast fed on big mammals. Amazing the comparison with a modern anaconda, this prehistoric monster was gigantic!!!!!!!! I can really visualize it pretty similar to the one from the film -minus the fangs-. Still, it wasn't really that long, as modern pythons also can have that same lenght. But it's reasonable, 40 feet is enough I guess, for a creature that has no legs... How long was the puppet from the movie? | |

| Roger Moore killed a giant snake with a pen knife through the head in MOONRAKER Also Drax's dogs chased and killed the girl through the forest(rather like the cimmerian scenes). Too bad Dan didnt pick up in that and I did. | |
