Venom
DirectorPiers Haggard
“The kidnap that became a murder, that became a siege, that became a death trap.”
International terrorists attempt to kidnap a wealthy couple's child. Their plan comes unstuck, however, when a deadly Black Mamba, sent by mistake instead of a harmless snake, escapes and terrorizes both them and their hostages.
