Michael, the name of that movie is Lake Eden,I am pretty sure. Everyone kept thinking my word snake meant a real snake, so I redid that one line trying to show it was just a metaphor for the evil teen in the movie. If you like to get scared out of your pants, find that movie to rent!

I could just see Billy Dee Williams and James Caan up on the screen as I read this. These few words are quite descriptive.
