Earlier there was "Ssssss!", where a man is transformed into a snake by a sinister scientist. In "Jaws of Satan" it's a priest battling the Devil in a form of a serpent. It all start where two men were trying to run a dog race track in a Southern town when the box contained a snake breaks loose and killed the two men on the train. I know one got out of the train when the snake struck. But how did the engineer get killed by the snake?
Well when the snake gets loose, and other snake strikes gets the townsfolk into a frenzy of terror. The town's priest who was living in such denial in his life needed to build up his faith after hearing a lie about his descendant's cause of death. It took 3 people: the medical examiner, a Herpentologist,and the priest to stop the Evil snake and save the town from certain doom.
The young Christina Applegate made her debut years before she played Kelly Bundy on "Married...With Children". Precocious liked Kelly, only more innocent than ditzy.
This movie is a gem. Should be called a CULT classic. It was fine all the way.
3 out of 5 stars
