This time, an earthquake’s in charge for unleashing prehistoric (slightly than genetically altered) piranhas on Lake Victoria, a resort space that’s overstuffed with squealing spring breakers, together with a tacky Girls Gone Wild-esque movie crew. Oodles of CG-enhanced carnage ensues, in fact. Alexandre Aja (who additionally made the surprisingly good remake of The Hills Have Eyes, in addition to cult French horror film High Tension), is aware of precisely what sort of film he’s making right here, which suggests loads of gross-out scares but additionally the kind of humor that comes with a narrative that isn’t taking itself too critically (and a good quantity of sexism, however that comes with the territory). Elisabeth Shue performs the heroic native sheriff tasked with protecting the physique depend as little as potential, with a powerful ensemble solid (together with Ving Rhames, Adam Scott, Jerry O’Connell, Christopher Lloyd, Eli Roth, and Richard Dreyfuss—the latter in a cameo that sends up his Jaws character) backing her up. Also, should you’re outfitted for 3D viewing, you possibly can’t actually beat the sight of vicious, toothy fish attempting to gnaw their manner off the display screen. Oh, and a piranha actually eats a dick on this one, but it surely’s nonetheless not as repulsively memorable as what occurs in Piranha 3DD, as talked about above.
