 Blonde Cobra
Originally, Bob Fleischner and Jack Smith didn't call the film Blonde Cobra, but rather "Blonde Venus" and "The Cobra Woman".
Blond Cobra, by mixing images of movement on the screen without sound, or by presenting pitch-blackness containing a story, threw the viewer off balance enough to wait till the end of the film to form a conclusion.
The film is broken down into three parts: "The Lonely boy," "Madame Nescience," and "Sister Dexterity." One of the first scenes to be shown is a graveyard which gives the idea of death and despair.

 DVD Talk > Reviews > Cobra Verde > Printer Friendly
The larger scenes in Cobra Verde are as astonishing as any big budget film: a line of thousands of Africans relaying a message from one village to another by waving white flags, a endless army of tribal woman training for battle, first as a formless mob, then with total precision.
The film ends with the spent Cobra Verde collapsing on the beach trying to pull a boat into the water to escape the madness he has helped create.
The lack of big film lighting makes the scene seem so personal and unusual that when Cobra Verde tells the young man "I've never had a friend before," the gesture is unmistakably real.

 village voice > film > The Gang's All Here; Cobra Woman by Melissa Anderson
A luscious, lysergic double bill of summer camp, Busby Berkeley's The Gang's All Here and Robert Siodmak's Cobra Woman pair the Brazilian Bombshell (Carmen Miranda) with the Caribbean Cyclone (Maria Montez).
Gang is the apotheosis of fruitiness: Miranda's Dorita singing and samba-ing to "The Lady in the Tutti Frutti Hat," a chorus of curvy beauties performing a near obscene synchronized number with giant bananas, prissy perennial second banana Edward Everett Horton cutting loose with Carmen.
A Miranda-Montez double feature amply proves Susan Sontag's observation: "Camp is the glorification of 'character.'" But perhaps these two exalted figures were simply too much for this world, both meeting untimely ends: Miranda at 46 from a heart attack and Montez at 34 from a bathtub accident.

 Maria Montez
Though her acting was not precisely Oscar calibre, Maria convincing portrayed haughty Arabian princesses, jungle goddesses and highborn gypsies in such delightful nonsense as Arabian Nights (1942), Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves (1942), Cobra Woman (1944) and Gypsy Wildcat (1945).
Montez was famous for her spectacular entrances at nightclubs and social functions; once, when her arrival at the Universal commissary failed to attract notice, she turned her heel and left the room, returning moments later with a huge entourage and accompanying loud noises.
Just another attractive contract ingenue at Universal studios in the early '40s, Maria Montez seemed destined for obscurity until she reinvented herself.

She was depicted either as a woman, a cobra or a woman with the head of a cobra (and sometimes the head of a lioness), wearing a double plumed headdress or the solar disk.
Renenutet (Renenet, Ernutet, Termuthis), "She Who Rears", was a cobra goddess of nursing or rearing children, fertility and protector of the pharaoh.
She was thought to be responsible for looking after the harvest (this was probably because the Egyptians saw snakes hiding in the fields at harvest time), especially in the city of Dja (Modern Medinet Madi, Greek Narmouthis) where an annual festival was dedicated to her where she was offered the best yields of the crops.

In her snake aspect, Meretseger is generally depicted as a coiled cobra, although she can also be shown as a cobra with a woman's head, which has a human arm sticking out from the front of its hood.
Meretseger is primarily a cobra goddess, but again she does have a leonine aspect.
Meretseger was supposed to inhabit a mountain that overlooked the Valley of the Kings in western Thebes, which is known as Dehenet Imentet, or 'the peak of the west', an epithet which she shared.

 Buffy - Pastor Steve's favorite show!
Buffy and Riley have a moving scene together which not only gives the two ex-lovers closure, but also serves as a parallel to the biblical accounts of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well and Jesus and the woman who was about to be stoned.
Buffy learns what's wrong with her Mom in a well-done scene that shows how one's world and thought processes stop when one hears the word, "Tumor." There's also an exciting plot about some kind of giant Cobra thingy tracking Dawn, but it's the emotions and bond between the Summers women that make the episode.
I know Buffy is a capable, 90's woman, but the old-fashioned romantic in me still likes to see the brave knight riding to the rescue of his fair damsel once in awhile.
