Silent Predators

Silent Predators is a 1999 American horror television film directed by Noel Nosseck and starring Harry Hamlin and Shannon Sturges.

After a truck carrying a rare species of tropical rattlesnake crashes, the snakes escape into the wild. Twenty years later the snakes have bred with native rattlesnakes to create a highly aggressive and lethal new species that begin to slowly overrun the southern California town of San Vicente. After the deaths of several residents of a housing development, local fire chief Vic Rondelli tries to convince the city government that the snakes are a serious threat despite opposition from Max Farrington, a land developer more interested in finishing his work than the people's safety.

Silent Predators was based on a script John Carpenter wrote in the 1970s.[citation needed] The movie was mostly filmed on Queensland, Australia, and Los Angeles, California.[citation needed]

Silent Predators received generally unfavorable reviews from critics, who criticized almost every aspect of the movie. Michael Speier of Variety called the film "absurdly unrealistic and dramatically inept", stating: "'Predators' is visually unspectacular, and the scare tactics are buried beneath Michael Tavera's heavy-handed score and some poorly realized jump-cut editing from Tod Feuerman".
