Hiss Alt' Poster

Jennifer Chambers Lynch's film Hisss only has a release date for India scheduled (October 22nd). Lynch is of course the daughter of David Lynch, who is the master of the surreal. Jennifer Lynch's previous feature was Surveillance and this next film is set in India, where the myth of the "Cobra Goddess" (Trailer) comes to life. The international trailer for the film is inside and there is strong likelihood that Hisss will show in North America at a later date. If not, the 10 million price tag for the picture will loom large for production company Split Image Pictures. All the details on this thriller are below.

A partial synopsis for Hisss here:

"The Curse of the Cobra Goddess - anytime man desecrates or violates the cobra, they are doomed to suffer the petrifying curse of the snake woman, of death and infertility. Only respect and worship can keep the population safe and the women fertile.

Over 4000 years ago the inhabitants of the Indus Valley sculpted the image of the shape shifting snake. These half cobras, half human creatures were said to inhabit an awesome, mysterious temple, made of material unknown to mankind, deep within the jungles, far, far away in the legendary spice forests of the Malabar Coast. Children grew up hearing about the story recounted to their grandfathers, by their forefathers about an ancestor, who had journeyed to the edge of the world, and came back to recount a frightening story about the Snake Goddess and her mate.... and from here the legend travelled across India, and the far east along the silk route - passed on from generation to generation for thousands of years until this day.

Continues...

It is the year 2008, an American man, named George, packing high tech gear, and evil intentions, makes the arduous journey into the heart of the forbidden forest. He captures a male cobra the size of a large python when he's at his weakest, while mating. Little does he realize when they embark on testing this mysterious creature in their high-tech lab, what horror and destruction awaits him...." (Trailer).
