Cobra Woman

Cobra Woman is a 1944 American South Seas adventure film from Universal Pictures, directed by Robert Siodmak that stars Maria Montez, Jon Hall and Sabu. Shot in Technicolor, this film is typical of Montez's career at Universal, and, although mostly forgotten in the 21st century by the general public, is venerated by film buffs as a camp classic for its legendary phallic snake-dance and Montez's character Naja's exaggerated accent when speaking the line: "Give me that Cobra jewel". Avant-garde filmmaker Kenneth Anger has called it his favorite film. Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide gives the film three stars out of four and calls it a camp classic.
