MEGA PIRANHA!!

Of course I had to pick this one up.

Re-Penetrator is the story of a dead stripper (Joanna Angel) re-animated into a nymphomaniac-of-the-living-dead by a perverted mad scientist (Tommy Pistol). Unfortunately for the good doctor, the sex-starved zombie may be too much for him to handle in this blood-soaked parody of H.P. Lovecraft's classic Re-Animator.

I am all over it when the Tiffany vs. Debbie movie comes out. The Megashark movie was hard to watch, but then at the same time it was very satisfying for me.

I knew when I saw Debbie mentioned you'd chime in .

Still no luck finding a trailer for this soon to be masterpiece!! C'mon, Asylum -- how can you not have a trailer out there on the great wide Interweb?

I have your mega piranha right here.

VCR/DVR alert!!! I was just informed that "MEGA PIRANHA" will premiere on the SyFy Channel this Saturday night at 9 PM...before it's released on DVD (which comes out at the end of the month).

Woo hoo! Trailer!!!



Honestly. How can you NOT want to see the movie after watching this? I am crying tears of bad movie joy here. Giant, badly-CGI'd piranhas jumping out of the water and attacking landmarks and aircraft!! (Hmmm, where have we seen that before? Haha) I am soooooo recording this!!

My wife and I were watching "Ghost Hunters" on SyFy last night and saw several promos for this Saturday's "MegaPiranha" airing. Of course, I giggled like a wee school girl at every one of 'em. My wife simply rolled her eyes and said "If you wanna watch that one, you're on your own..."

That was awesome. I love this bit...

Every so often a film comes out that raises the bar and becomes the
yardstick against which all future movies are measured. For a long time
that movie was "Citizen
Kane." What followed was a long, dark midnight of banality. Then,
this past winter, "Avatar" took
its place atop that lofty celluloid throne. Well, "Avatar," your short
reign has ended, as Syfy's "Mega Piranha" has
thrown down the gauntlet to usurp you — and this movie's got teeth.

Why does this movie have three pages?

Wow, that looks awful, and I will put up with a lot in a crappy movie. That said, I'll watch this.

I'm all for B-horror movies but I cannot stand made for TV stuff like this. I understand "so bad it's good" but SyFy movies are just plain bad.

That channel outlived its usefulness when they took MST3K off the air.

Because bad movie geeks love this sort of thing.

Well, someone besides me must watch'em. They keep makin' em.

The "Mega Piranha" premiere is part of "a whole day of water creature movies" including such epics as "Spring Break Shark Attack," "Sea Snakes" (starring Luke Perry!) and "Dinoshark." AWESOME!!!

Dinoshark.

Just the title alone screams "CHEESE!!!"

Never seen "Dinoshark" but I'm tempted to set my DVD recorder to catch that one along with "Mega Piranha"...

I've seen "Spring Break Shark Attack," that was hilariously bad. The first three quarters of the movie are relatively sharkless, in fact it comes off like a Lifetime Movie drama about the dangers of date-rape drugs for most of its length (the main character goes to Spring Break with her friends, a guy slips a Mickey into her drink, yadda yadda yadda) , then all of a sudden the sharks finally show up in the last half hour. It's like they pasted the ending of a completely different movie into it.

At least Dinoshark might have some basis in fact.

A couple weeks ago I watched an episode of Chased By Dinosaurs called "Sea Monsters". One of the "monsters" was called Megalodon, a fifty foot shark with jaws six feet wide.

There has been at least one SyFy Channel movie (I believe it's part of the "Shark Attack" series) dealing with the Megalodon.

SyFy has done that already... It was called 'Megashark'.

Good Lord, that was terrible, but funny.

OK, so I watched the long awaited "Mega Piranha" last night. It was... well, just as epic as you probably expected.

Seriously, it was better than the Asylum's previous giant fish story, "Mega Shark Vs. Giant Octopus," but anyone who saw that one would tell you, beating it wouldn't be too hard to do. The story was absolutely ridiculous of course, the acting was passable at best, the CGI was cheap... it was just good, dumb, action packed gory fun. In other words, a typical SyFy Original. It was faster moving than "Shark Vs. Octopus" and in addition to the usual assortment of "killer creature movie cliches," they threw in a bunch of international intrigue/action movie cliches' to giggle over too. (I loved the constant quick cuts between scenes that were accompanied by a "BAM!" or "SWOOOOOOSH!" sound effect, and the occasional split-screen trick ala "24.")

Now I guess there's nothin to do but sit back and wait for the inevitable "Mega Piranha Vs. Mega Shark Vs. Giant Octopus" mega-crossover movie. If and when that happens I'm betting on the Piranhas.

Talking about SciFi originals, has anyone seen SS Doomtrooper? That's one of my favorite bad movies, haha.

You "yadda, yadda'd" the best part!

The movie was OK. 3/5

"OK" is about as good as you can expect from a SyFy Channel/Asylum co-production.

Have you ever seen "Spring Break Shark Attack?" There's a whole lotta "yadda yadda yadda" before you even see a shark fin in that movie. By the halfway point I was going "Come on, EAT somebody already!"

Never heard of it but I just looked it up on IMDB and it definitely sounds like my brand o'cheez.
