The story

What Is Python About?

The premise of Python without spoilers. The whole story is in the plot summary further down.

Created by nature, reshaped by man, the sleepy town of New Haven, California faces a nightmare. A sixty‑foot, slithering monster erupts onto its streets, shattering the town’s calm. With each attack it grows more violent, turning into an unstoppable feeding machine beyond its creator’s control, leaving only stripped bones in its wake.
