*Fire Snakes were written into the desert sequence of the ''[[Super Mario Bros. (film)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' film, but were cut for unknown reasons. Scripts state that they "''[...]resemble moray eels, their mouths filled with pointed piranha-like teeth,''" and that "''They gnaw through the skin, burrow into the body cavities, and lay their larvae. It can take weeks for the host to die.''" Earlier scripts had given this description to "Sand Eels" which similarly did not appear in the final product. In the final cut, a neon sign labeled "Fire Snake" can be seen during the establishing shot of [[Dinohattan]]. | *Fire Snakes were written into the desert sequence of the ''[[Super Mario Bros.
