Night of the Cobra Woman
Night of the Cobra Woman is a 1972 American horror film starring Joy Bang, Marlene Clark, and Roger Garrett. It was co-produced by New World Pictures and shot in the Philippines. Roger Corman expressed great disappointment in the final product,[1] and thought its main problem was that the script badly lacked logic.[2] PlotLena, a young nurse in World War II Philippines, is bitten by a cobra which formerly belonged to a snake cult, and which gives her the powers of eternal life, beauty and sexual prowess, and the ability to turn into a snake. When a pair of UNICEF workers, Joanna and Duff, encounter her many years later, Lena's snake is killed by Duff's pet eagle, leaving Lena no option but to feed on the life-force of young men by having sex with them, starting with Duff.
