Trivia
The whole opening sequence in the cave with the soldiers was shot at the very last minute, when the producers realized the cut of the film wasn't long enough to be marketable.

Goofs
Snake Facts: The Ural mountains where the snake is reported to be at the beginning of the movie run as high as 6,700 feet in elevation and are cold. Pythons on the other hand are ectothermic, meaning no heat from within and dependent on their environment for heat. Prime heat range for pythons being 76-88 degrees F. Finding a python in the Urals would be limited to finding a dead snake.

Pythons like most snakes do not make a "screeching" sound. At most they might hiss.

Crazy credits
Running two and a half minutes of the opening credits at the 13 minute mark is at least very unusual if not bizarre and unheard of.

Hey, how many Giant Snake movies have you seen filmed in the ex-USSR?

I was puzzled by the credits being mostly Russian names. Then I realized this was a movie set in Russia that actually WAS shot in Russia!

So I say, cut it some slack. A stray thought-- the actors playing soldiers in the film probably WERE former members of the Red Army! They certainly had the moves. And the CGI serpents are pretty dang good! I was impressed by a couple of sequences. In one, the snake's underside reflects the light of the flamethrower being used (ineffectually) against it. The other nicely-done sequence is lifted from Gandalf's "death" in LotR: TFotR, with a serpent playing the Balrog role.
