Anaconda Series Episode 1
Jenny From The Chopping Block
J-Lo may think she’s on a pleasant jungle cruise to film a lost Amazonian tribe, but her big buns are really the bait for luring a massive Anaconda in this surprise 1997 blockbuster. Will the 40-foot snake make a meal of rapper Ice Cube, horny Owen Wilson, sniveling Jonathan Hyde, and MTV personality Kari Wuhrer before they can get ailing Eric Stoltz to a hospital? And will the winking performance from Oscar winner Jon Voight make the hosts regurgitate, or shed their cynicism? We squeeze out the answers when you Donate Now!
