Basilisk: The Serpent King
Watch TrailerTwo millennia ago, a Lybian king has a basilisk (snake-shaped dragon), which petrifies people, subjected to the same fate with a golden scepter during a solar eclipse. Both these and several victims are dug up by modern archaeologist Harrison 'Harry' McColl's expedition. Despite a cryptic warning from tribal locals, everything goes to his Colorado university's museum. It's all exhibited during another eclipse, which leads to the monster reviving. Harry and some of his friends must try to petrify the monster again.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
This TV movie blends adventure action with creature-feature horror, delivering a straightforward plot about an ancient curse unleashed in a modern museum. The practical effects bring the mythical basilisk to life, and the eclipse premise adds a ticking clock to the monster mayhem.
What lingers after the credits is the simple fun of a creature run amok, where archaeology and legend collide in a fight for survival. — MovieFinder Editorial
