First there was Jaws then, probably due to the economy, they scaled it back to Piranha. Now in 2010, ironically in an economic down turn, we have Piranha (3D). The original Piranha movie was hardly an Oscar contender so I really wasn’t expecting much from this or it’s 3D *WOOT! WOOT! RANT ALERT, RANT...

Just where does one begin with a film like this… If you’ve seen either Meatball Machine or Tokyo Gore Police then you’ll know what to expect. If not? Well… put it this way, madness and insanity is putting it lightly! Normally I start with an IMDb plot line, but IMDb doesn’t even have one...
