Anaconda (also known as Anacondas) is a series of American horror films created by Hans Bauer, Jim Cash and Jack Epps Jr., and was distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment. The series began with Anaconda (1997) and was followed by one theatrical stand-alone sequel, Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004), three television sequels (Anaconda 3: Offspring (2008), Anacondas: Trail of Blood (2009), and Lake Placid vs. Anaconda (2015), the latter being a crossover with the Lake Placid film series), and a meta-reboot, Anaconda (2025). In addition, a Chinese remake of the 1997 film was released in 2024. Each installment revolves around giant man-eating anacondas and the efforts of various groups of people to capture or destroy the creatures. The fictional plant known as the Blood Orchid and the company Wexel Hall Pharmaceuticals as well as the fictitious Murdoch family are repeatedly referenced in the films.
