Yeah............it's a good watch. It was made around '78 I believe.....tried to cash in on the whole Jaws feeling. I think it's a good movie but I wouldn't plan my Saturday night around watching it. It's not a fast paced movie like most of today's are.......but it's not that slow either. It moves at about the same speed Jaws does.......shouldn't be bored watching it.
I think they did a good job with the piranhas.......accept on the shots (I believe there are two or three in the film) when the piranha is swimming straight at the camera.
They arn't giant or mutated either one........they have been bred to be able to live in salt or fresh water either. Other than that, nothing special about them.
i remember on the simpsons when milhouse was talking to bart about this movie for some reason and he is like remember the part bart when the fish swam up threw the eye glass thing that u look threw in a sub and he bit the guys eye and he was AAAAHHH AHHHHHH AAAAH AAHH that was really cool. i kinda remeber that episode but i am prety sure they where talking about rirahan but i havent seen it either i rented it long time ago but never watched it
