So after doing a little investigating (i.e. I Googled it!), I've come across what little info I could about VIPERS. Seems the plot has to do with a set of vipers mutated by scientists in order to help develop a cure for cancer. Naturally, the experiment goes awry. The mutated vipers escape into the woods and being killing the residents of the small town of Eden Cove. The ensuing onslaught is no doubt tara-fying!

Co-starring alongside the chain-smoking, nipple-slipping, perpetually drunken starlet are Jonathan Scarfe (who played Jesus Christ in the 2004 TV movie JUDAS) and Claire Rankin, recently seen in a recurring role on Stargate: Atlantis. No word on what role Tara Reid plays in all this, but so help me God, if they actually had the audacity to cast her as a scientist... Look; when even Uwe Boll disses your acting talents then you know you got problems.

Interestingly enough, VIPERS actually managed to make news on some of the various online celebrity gossip sites as Tara Reid was rumored to have been a terror on the set to the point that the director began bad-mouthing her behind her back. The film's director, Bill Corcoran, contradicted these reports by telling OK Magazine, "I don't understand where these false reports are coming from. They can't be further from the truth. Tara has been a delight to direct." No word on what he told OK Magazine off the record.

Principal photography on VIPERS only just wrapped about two weeks ago, so don't expect to see the completed film until sometime well into 2008. Whether or not the film is Sci-Fi Channel (Or Lifetime Movie Network) bound remains to be seen. More info whenever it become available.
