A Korean import whose sole appeal comes from the half-decent effects, and not at all from the characters, story, dialogue, or direction, which are entirely cheesy. Aside from US box-office considerations, the Los Angeles setting makes even less sense than the supposed Korean legend that provides the plot, such as it is. Apparently, star-crossed lovers from 1507 have been randomly reincarnated across the globe. As foretold in prophecy, a giant snake has followed. The latter-day hero, now a reporter, must settle a score with the snake and its human and reptilian legions before he can score with the girl he loves. Robert Forster, in a supporting role, seems to be phoning in his disembodied performance, but it could just be he was directed that way, as no one else is much better.
