Anacondas
Anaconda's: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid is a horror-thriller set deep in a primitive Borneo jungle, where
an extremely rare red orchid- the 'blood orchid' - may hold the key to producing a youth-preserving serum.
When a gun-ho group of scientists embarks on a treacherous journey into the jungle to find the orchid - in the
hopes that a fountain of youth discovery will make their careers and their corporate bosses a lot of money -
they quickly realize that more than bad weather and heavy undergrowth separate them from their treasure.
Within the mysteries of the jungle lies a deadly preadator that keeps the secret of the orchids safe and stops
anyone who dares to enter its territory from leaving...

Film Facts:
Filmed on the Navua River in Fiji
and in Hawaii
Bravely, the entire cast agreed to work in the rapids to add an authenticity that would not have been possible using
stunt players. Says Johnny Messner, who plays the boat's owner Bill: "It was a very intense day. It was exhausting
trying to fight those currents but it was fun at the same time. We all lined up and linked arms - you really had to rely
on the person next to you or you were going to go under. There were cameras in the water and we were rushing right
at them. But it's great footage."
