Cult of the Cobra is a 1955 American black-and-white horror film from Universal-International Pictures, produced by Howard Pine, directed by Francis D. Lyon, that stars Faith Domergue, Richard Long, Kathleen Hughes, Marshall Thompson, Jack Kelly, William Reynolds, and David Janssen. The film was released as a double feature with Revenge of the Creature. Six American officers witness the secret ritual of Lamians (worshipers of women who can change into serpents). When the soldiers are discovered by the snake cult, the High Lamian Priestess vows that “the Cobra Goddess will avenge herself”. Once back in the United States, a mysterious woman enters into the life of each service man, with disastrous results: “accidents” begin to happen, and before each death the shadow of a cobra is seen. Critics noted similarities of the film with Val Lewton’s film Cat People having been released thirteen years prior. Most of the film’s actors later went on to star in more than one, and in some cases several, of their own network TV series, such as Jack Kelly in Kings’ Row, Maverick, and Sale of the Century; Richard Long in Bourbon Street Beat, The Big Valley, and Nanny and the Professor; Marshall Thompson in Angel and Daktari; William Reynolds in The Islanders, The Gallant Men, and The FBI; and David Janssen in Richard Diamond, Private Detective, O’Hara, U.
