2. Juli 2019: Snakes on a Plane + Airplane! (Double Feature, OV: English)

Extremely high safety measures were taken to protect the Boeing 747-400 going to Los Angeles International Airport where trial witness passenger Sean Jones is about to testify. Jones witnessed the brutal murder of a U.S. prosecutor in Hawaii and plans to put an end to gang boss Eddie Kim.

But Kim is not your everyday life criminal. He wants to bring down that plane and instead of using classic means like bombs to do so, the full extent of his influence is shown as the plane departs and a full crate of aggressive venomous snakes is released inside the aircraft. Oxygen masks deploying from the ceiling? Good luck handling those falling snakes. Plan on joining the mile high club? Guess you will die a glorious death while having sex on an airplane toilet which turns out to be a threesome with a snake. Will Sean Jones make it to LA? What about the flight crew or a possibly available antivenom? Sit back. Relax. Enjoy the fright.

Ted Striker is a traumatized ex fighter pilot war veteran with a serious drinking problem. Drinking problem? Well, splashing every drink all over himself is in fact somewhat critical. Probably just as critical as his mission to win back his girlfriend Elaine, who works as a flight attendant and currently en route from LA to Chicago, where the following disaster soon develops.

With Ted and plenty of other passengers on board, an incapacitated flight crew with food poisoning isn’t great news but might not necessarily be a reason to be alarmed – as long as there is anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane? Luckily, there is! The inflatable autopilot may take over control. But isn’t there an even better solution? Again, there is. All eyes are on Ted now, who has indeed developed a fear of flying, but who is also their last chance to make it back to the ground alive. Very much to his own disbelieve: “Surely, you can’t be serious?” – “I am, and don’t call me Shirley”!
