这部纪录片的编剧、蛇王导演和旁白均由沃纳·赫尔佐格（Werner Herzog）来担当，蛇王记录了他与剧组前往南极洲拍摄当地生物、居民以及独特地理风貌的历程。这部纪录片并不是一部关于南极著名的企鹅的影片，而是去探索南极的人类生活，以及壮丽神奇的南极洲美景。他们前往由美国国家科学 基金会南极计划部门运作的南极洲最大的科学研究中心——位于罗斯岛的麦克默多站进行拍摄，在当地采访了一些在作业、后勤、IT和维护等方面提供支援的成员后，他们陆续前往海豹基地、潜水营地等南极洲人类扎营的地点，沿途遇到很多有意思的人，做了很多包括细胞生物学家塞缪尔·宝泽（Samuel Bowser）、动物学家占·保罗斯基（Jan Pawlowski）、企鹅研究学者大卫·安利（David Ainley）等在内的简短访谈。在某种程度上，他们拍摄探索的并不在于展现科研领域，而在向大众揭示一种独特的生命体验。本片提名2009年第81届奥斯卡最佳纪录片奖。
回复 :A vicious alligator named Ramon, who was flushed into the city sewer as a baby, survives to become a 32-foot-long menace who devours animals and people alike. Ramon's so huge because of the steady diet of dead pets - treated with growth hormones - that he's fed on for 12 years. Now the tremendous brute is angry and looking for revenge. Only detective David Madison knows of Ramon's existence, and it is his task to prove to the rest of the city that a tropical beast lives in their midst. Veteran screenwriter Sayles' script finds the perfect blend of comedy and horror, making this an entertaining romp through the sewers of Chicago.
