anaconda (from the movie anaconda)

“They strike, wrap around you. Hold you tighter than your true love. And you get the privilege, of hearing your bones break before the power of embrace causes your veins to explode.„~ Paul Serone on the anacondas.

The Anacondas are gigantic and extremely aggressive snakes and the titular main antagonists of the film series of the same name.

Description:

The eponymous snakes in the films are super-species from Eunectes genus which are superior than ordinary anacondas. As with their regular cousins, these anacondas hailed from Amazon, yet somehow a number of them made their way to backwater jungles of Borneo. A testament of their superior physiology is their size, which twice regular anacondas' as well as enhanced strength, speed, ferocity, endurance, flexibility, and intelligence, all which that allow them to devour prey with little effort in matter of seconds.

Their metabolism is also improved somewhat, as these anacondas require mere minutes to few hours in digesting newly devoured prey. Also, they can fight at full-force even after eating at least a human-sized prey, though their combat ability somewhat hampered and may forced to regurgitate it if necessary. Additionally, for psychological effect as with common movie monsters, filmmakers gave these creatures vocal cords that allowed them to growls and snarls (if not outright roar) as well as acute hearing, unlike their real-life counterparts that can only hiss.

Borneo variant of these creatures possess longer lifespan, thanks to consuming prey that feed on blood orchids, special orchid species that can extend one's lifespan like elixir of life. Indirectly consuming this flowers not only allowed them to grow larger than their Amazonian cousins, but also becoming stronger and faster, yet still killable.

Their vocal sound effects were provided by Frank Welker, who also did the sound effects of Sharptooth in The Land Before Time, Max 3000 in Man's Best Friend, Sabor in Tarzan, Rudy in Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, the Harvesters in Independence Day, Ludmilla in Bartok the Magnificent, and Mor'du in Brave.
