Piranha (1978)




Thaaaaat's right, kiddos! This is a 30+ year old film, not some piece of trash someone made a year ago to profit off of Roger Corman's successful drive-in title.

With the fear of "Jaws" instilled in everyone it was time to kick off the "killer animal craze." From films like GRIZZLY, and ALLIGATOR, to my favorite... PIRANHA!!!

While this movie surely guarantees plenty of camp and cheese, it should also be noted that there is quite a level of cinematic greatest attached to this film. From its all-star B-film cast, to on point technical aspects, Piranha should not just be pushed aside as a cheesy drive in flick.
