9 More Movie Moments IMPOSSIBLE To Watch The Same Way After This

Along with the many other memorable killers found speeding around Tokyo on a train in David Leitch's Bullet Train, a rather deadly boomslang snake also shows up on the titular vehicle. But according to snake expert Sara Ruane, who sat down to analyse a number of snake attacks in various movies for Insider, this snake is actually about as inaccurate as it gets.

Firstly, Ruane was quick to note that the reptile wasn't even a boomslang, quickly identifying it as a rat snake instead. Not a great start.

Then, on top of looking nothing like such a "distinctive looking" snake, they also didn't have the front fangs shown in the movie, and weren't a constrictor - so, they wouldn't have wrapped themselves around Brad Pitt's arm and squeezed like the one in the film eventually does.

Oh, and the way the movie depicts the use of anti-venom is completely wrong, too, with it often taking more than one dose to cure a bitten person. You're also typically monitored after your doses, being given more of the "ridiculously expensive" anti-venom if you're getting worse.

Sure, these changes definitely help make the snake moments feel that little more dangerous and exciting in the flick, but it's hard to look at them quite the same way in the wake of learning just how poorly the reptile scored out of 10 when it comes to accuracy (it got a one, by the way).
