Piranha (1978)

October Challenge Day 3:

OH MY GAWD

Where in the world did this beautiful yet terribly entertaining masterpiece crawl out from? From giant water basins of experimental evil, that's where!

Piranha, I never expected you to be so delightfully fantastic.


Pull open the tabs on your beers, slather on the baby oil, and prepare yourself for a Jaws (in miniature) adventure! 

What could possibly go wrong when the military begins biological warfare experiments on PIRANHAS? But wait, could it get any worse when those experimental waters are accidentally drained into rivers that are popular with tourists?

Sit back folks, rest assured, it all goes down hill and drains into the largest body of water available - all for our thrill-seeking pleasure.

Honestly, this is a surprisingly entertaining film and a hilarious blood bath. Literally, most of the blood seen is in water, like a bath, but bloody.

Obviously trying to sail on the Jaws scenes, according to IMDB, this film was sued by Universal Studies but Stephen Spielberg liked it so much the lawsuit was dropped. Entertaining horror film and a happy ending - win win!

Bask in the ridiculous wonder of this film alone or with a group of friends - guaranteed hilarity regardless. Be sure to pack that picnic basket, hide the flask, and venture into uncharted waters in either your most comfortable or revealing clothes. 

I watched this film for free on Tubi. Use the Find It! Watch It! links on Horror Habit's sidebar to locate where else you can find this welcoming and absurd creature feature.

PS: What's Up With The Creature Walking Around in the Lab?!?!?!?!??!!? I need answers!!!!!
