Along with the cast and crew of his new movie "Horns", actor Daniel Radcliffe searched for a exotic snake that was lost on the movie sets.

The 24-year-old plays the role of a man, who wakes up after a drunken night with two horns on his head and had to shoot with a lot of snakes in the movie.

"It was quite tense. We were bringing exotic snakes into Canada and letting them all loose. We had 100 snakes and we had to leave with 100," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Radcliffe as saying.

"We were filming in a place with so many nooks and crannies for snakes to get away that we spent about half an hour after we finished filming that night looking for the last snake ... It had hidden itself under the fire to stay warm," he added.

The "Harry Potter" star also insists that the reptiles are the best props he has ever worked with in a movie.

"I actually loved snakes in the end. For the last third of the movie I have a six feet python wrapped around me - which is the greatest prop any actor has ever had," he added.

Directed by Alexandre Aja, the film is scheduled to release Sep 6 in Canada.
