Anaconda is a great science fiction, action-packed movie from 1997. Over the decades, I’ve seen it at least 2 dozen times. There have been additional Anaconda movies since then….but none of them are as great as the original. If you’re a fan, you’ll want to pick-up the limited edition steelbook collection available on December 9th, 2025. It would make a great holiday gift too! Here’s some information about the movie.

Anaconda is an action-packed thriller starring Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube, Academy Award®-winner Jon Voight (1978 Best Actor, Coming Home) and Eric Stoltz. A documentary film crew, headed by anthropologist Steve Cale (Stoltz) and director Terri Flores (Lopez), ventures into the world’s most isolated jungle – the Amazon – in search of a lost and forgotten civilization. Early in their journey, they come to the aid of Paul Serone, a Paraguayan guide (Voight), who joins their expedition. But Serone is actually a poacher on the trail of a legendary snake. When Serone hijacks the boat and its crew on his quest to track and kill the giant snake, he steers the expedition right into the path of the deadly monster. Get ready for a wild, scare-a-minute thrill ride because Anaconda will grab you and take your breath away.
The film has an approximate run-time of 89 minutes and is rated PG-13 for intense adventure violence and brief language.
Gift-Giving – If you’re going to pick this up for a holiday gift…I would suggest gifting it with a box of microwave popcorn, snacks and a few bottles of water. Make a nice gift set for the holidays!
