Did anyone at scifi watch this? I understand low costs but it does not cost more to speak lines clearly. With all the out of work actors, could they not find one to play the part of Python? I feel for the guy, really, I'm not an actor and would do just as bad of a job but there ARE actors out there somewhere, waiting to be hired -- right? I'm not expecting or asking for much, just 'what did he say?' Lee Majors and Jason Connery are not getting Emmy's for this but good lord, they at least moved the story along and said the dialog in a credible way. It wasn't just talking through false monster teeth either, it was the a problem in the pre-monster backstory (and actually WORSE there!).
As for the direction. What was that initial (can't be a spoiler, it is in the first seconds) scene supposed to do? Python is in pain, his hands below, writhing . . . what the . . . ? Was it going to be "Phython's Complaint?" And what exactly, besides being ugly, was the nature of Python's super powers? Fuzzy, unclear, bad story telling.
