Snakes in Movies   Super Troopers 3 (2026)   Spoiler Alert ! Some of these pictures and descriptions may give away plot details that you might not want to know before watching the film.   This is a comedy sequel about Vermont Highway Patrol troopers who are constantly playing tricks on each other and telling crude jokes. It includes a funny scene with a snake attack. One of the troopers, Farva (Kevin Heffernan) gets engaged to Sarita (Hannah Simone) the sister of another trooper Thorny (Jay Chandrasekhar). Sarita and Thorny are Indian Americans, and the parents come to town and plan a big Indian wedding. Throny does not want Farva to marry his sister, so he tries several things to get his parents call off the wedding, but none of them work. Thorny's final plan to stop the wedding involves convincing Farva that he needs to follow the family tradition of dancing with a cobra. Farva's parents try to talk him out of it, reminding him that they ended the tradition after "the catastrophe in Madras." We don't hear much more about that catastrophe, but Thorny insists and tells Farva it's time to pick his snake. We see a wicker basket and hear hissing and rattling sounds, then a man removes the cover and we see a basket full of cobras. Thorny tells him that in his family's tradition, the groom picks his most compatible snake for the wedding cobra dance. One of the troopers asks "Is that legal?" Mehta (Sakina Jaffrey) Thorny's mother says "I would not describe it that way." Farva says "Aren't they poisonous?" Then trooper Foster (Paul Soter) says: "Technically, 'poisonous' refers to animals that kill you when you eat them. 'Venomous' would be the word for an animal that injects a toxin..." Farva tells him to shut up. (I sympathize with Foster, because he's absolutely right, and I am always saying the same thing, but nobody cares.) Thorny tells Farva: "Don't worry, they remove the venom glands at birth. What's left is only residual. I mean, these snakes are basically tame." Then Thorny fools everyone by saying that one of the snakes got out This is part of his plot to cancel the wedding. While everyone panics and looks away for the snake, he grabs the basket and shakes it, making the snakes angry. Then he apologizes saying he was fooled by a shadow, not a loose snake and tells Farva to choose a snake, knowing he'll get a snake that wants to bite. Farva then steps up to the basket, baby-talking to a snake he calls "kind of cute" but of course, the snake immediately hisses and springs up and bites Farva on the neck. Mehta, who is a doctor, as is her husband, makes Farva comfortable lying on his back as we see two red fang marks on his neck. Farva asks if he's going to die, and Thorny tells him again that it's just residual venom. Mehta says since the bite is on the neck, it's best to suck out the poison. His father tells Thorny that he should suck it. Thorny says Sarita should do it, but she doesn't want her lips to be swollen for the wedding, so Mehta complains about her lazy children then leans in and sucks his neck, spitting out the venom. We see Farva's face looking like he's enjoying it as he groans with pleasure. Then everyone notices that Farva has an erection. Thorny complains: "Farva, thats my mom" and then we see that the other troopers have erections which they cover up with their hats. The erection joke is a good example of the crude juvenile humor found in this and all the Super Trooper movies, but that's why people like them. We don't see any real snakes in the movie. The snakes in the basket are all CGI, but they're not too badly rendered. The erect cobra has abnormally large fangs in front of its mouth, which is typical in a movie. The snake Heffernan holds on to when he's bitten on the neck looks like a snake prop made of rubber or plastic. The snake sequence could be interpreted as a racist joke about Indian people and their cobras, but Thorny, (Jay Chandrasekhar) is an Indian American as well as the director of the movie and one of the script's writers in the Broken Lizard comedy group, which includes four of the other actors, so that should soften any criticism. And besides, there are even more jokes about Canadians. It's a lot funnier if you skip everything above and just watch the entire snake scene on YouTube.
