Tegan falls once more under the influence of the Mara and directs the TARDIS to the planet Manussa.

The Mara takes control of Lon and uses him and Tegan to obtain from Ambril, the Director of Historical Research, the 'Great Crystal' - the large blue stone that originally brought it into being by focusing energy from the minds of the planet's one-time inhabitants.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Doctor Who: Snakedance is an acquired taste at 5.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1983. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
