I do not like snakes, in fact, I hate them. Luckily, everything is a fiction and I will not meet the Black Mamba somewhere in London, I hope... I knew what I would see with such a title, meaning not a great movie. I wanted to see it for the names in the cast, especially for Klaus Kinski and Oliver Reed, then for Sarah Miles, Sterling Hayden and Nicol Williamson. Unfortunately the beauty called Susan George is bitten by the snake not long after the beginning of the movie. But the scene when those black panties are down remains anthological. Very cool Kinski's "dance" scene with the snake on the balcony. What does it mean to be a great actor, to have personality and such a look, no one else like Kinski in the whole history of the cinema. I think the snake liked to drink, so she hid at some point in the bottle closet with whiskey... it was a she snake, because in the final scene there are some snake eggs and some baby snakes show up...
