It’s true FEARnettians, there’s nothing more hypnotizing than a snake woman. There’s well, all the seduction, the slithering and of course the skin shedding which only remains hot if the aforementioned “skin” is hyperbole for “clothes” and not actual flesh. Today we received a new still of Mallika Sherawat, star of Hiss, directed by Jennifer Lynch (Surveillance) that’s guaranteed to spellbound. The film, “a modern day retelling of the ancient tale of the ichhadahari nagin (snake woman),” follows a ruthless American who captures nagin’s mate for magical powers and is the recipient of snake woman havoc wreaked when nagin assumes a gorgeous femme fetale form and exacts revenge. More importantly, the feature is labeled as a Bollywood creature film with former KNB maestro now Precinct 13 maestro, Robert Kurtzman at the FX helm and boasts the tagline: “She’s sexy… venomous… and she’ll swallow you whole…"

Lynch, Sherawat and Kurtzman as well as the films producers and star Jeff Doucette will be making an appearance at the Fangoria Weekend of Horrors on April 18th but we know you can’t wait that long. When we snap our fingers, you’ll hit the jump and uhh “be awoken” by an image of the sexy snake lady herself!
