Anaconda: The Remake That Ate Us

By Timmy Roqben

ANACONDA The Remake That Ate Us A novel by Timmy Roqben

They came to the Amazon with two million crowdfunded dollars, a rubber snake, and the worst idea in cinema history: remake the 1997 cult-so-bad-it's-perfect monster movie Anaconda... for real.

Doug Remar (failed director, eternal man-child, and walking midlife crisis) swore they would shoot it gorilla-style, practical effects only, no safety nets. His best friend Griffin, the only adult left in his life, came along to keep him alive. They brought a producer who once reported from war zones, a sound guy who never grew up, a 24-year-old DP with three million followers, a local guide who knew exactly how this would end, and enough boxed wine to float a battleship.

What they found was older than the river, longer than myth, and very, very curious about cameras.

Part tragic bromance, part found-footage nightmare, part love letter to every terrible movie that ever made you laugh until you cried, Anaconda: The Remake That Ate Us is the story of what happens when nostalgia meets nature and nature wins.

They promised the backers the director's cut. They delivered the final cut.

"Terrifying, hilarious, and weirdly beautiful. Like if The Blair Witch Project and Tropic Thunder had a baby... and the baby was immediately swallowed by a sixty-foot anaconda." - Callie Menezes, sole surviving cinematographer

"Five stars. Would be eaten again." - Leonard Zimmerman, sound designer, nine fingers

The snake sleeps. For now.
