Q: The Winged Serpent


In this New York set Kaiju throwback a cult sacrifices willing members to an ancient God who just happens to be a giant winged serpent!

David Carradine (that guy that strangled himself to death while master-bating after playing Bill in Kill Bill) plays a cop who's putting his reputation in jeopardy by linking the gruesome murders of cult members to the giant bird sightings. Q also stars Michael Moriarty and he steals the show as a hard luck small time criminal who finds Q's nest while hiding from police and his associates after a botched robbery. Moriarty is one of those people who even if you don't recognize him he has a familiar face, likeable demeanor, and a charisma that even accompanies his most pathetic moments; you can't not root for this guy.  Last but not least the belle of the blood ball Q is one Hell of a winged serpent even if she doesn't exactly match up to the poster art of the time. Q is brought to terrifying life through the magic of stop motion and robotic puppetry! 

I don't want to spoil anything as Q gave me so much more story than what I was expecting, but in the end if blood raining down (from a lacerated sky) on panicked citizens from the claws and mouth of a pretty kick ass winged serpent sounds like fun to you I'd highly recommend this flick!
