Piranya

“Una mort espantosa aguaitava invisible al riu ...”

Estrena: 03 d'ag. 1978 Durada: 94 min Gèneres: Horror, Science Fiction ★ 6.0 (729 vots)

L'home ha tornat a manipular la natura, i aquesta vegada el resultat no és només mortal... és voraç! Una nit tranquil·la i deliciosa, dos joves excursionistes decideixen banyar-se a la llum de la lluna a les tranquil·les aigües del llac Lost River... sense saber que es convertiran en el banquet d'una mena de piranyes menjadores d'homes! Les seves morts provoquen una investigació que revela l'existència d'un experiment secret del govern conegut com a Operació Razorteeth. Però el pitjor encara ha d'arribar. Aquest insaciable i macabre exèrcit de monstres s'està traslladant riu avall, on un nou complex de vacances d'estiu acaba d'obrir les portes... el qual els proporcionarà un festí d'estiuejants tret que un valent ecologista (Bradford Dillman) i una bella i intel·ligent investigadora (Heather Menzies) no aturin el seu mortal avenç... per sempre.

Not a terrible film, but there was a remake in the 90s with the exact same story featuring better acting and better effects, so you can probably skip straight ahead to that one. Now I know that if I had been around when that remake came out, I'd probably be the first in line to complain "Why'd you even bother? It's just the first movie over again!", but seeing as I watched them both in retrospect,...

Adventuresome and fun "Jaws" homage with far superior women RELEASED IN 1978 and directed by Joe Dante, “Piranha” chronicles events when genetically-enhanced piranha are accidently released into a river system in central Texas, which threaten kids & counselors at a Summer Camp and vacationers at a lake resort. A spirited skip tracer (Heather Menzies) and a backwoods drunkard (Bradford Dillman)...

Decent watch, probably won't watch again, but can recommend for fans of Jaws or any other version of this movie. There is a 1995 remake of this movie that I would probably watch instead if I wanted to watch this gain. Not-trigger warning: There is a surprising LACK of gore in this movie. This has a decent story to it, but it shares aspects with Jaws, Friday the 13th, other movies of the e...

**Piranha is bad 70s creature feature gold! It's so bad it's great and a fun ride as long as you expect a total cheesefest.** Piranha is cheesy 70s/80s creature films at their very best! It has everything - evil military generals, obligatory lake celebrations, scientific experimentation gone wrong, horrible dialogue, low-budget effects, and more. It's clear as you watch the film that Piranha wa...

"People eat fish, fish don't eat people"! Well, that might be the theory but when a meddlesome couple accidentally release a swimming pool's worth of genetically modified fish into a river, we discover that that mantra isn't strictly true! It's only because "Dr. Hoak" (Kevin McCarthy) is at the facility that our interfering pair - "Maggie" (Heather Menzies-Ulrich) and "Paul" (Bradford Dillman) lea...

<em>'Piranha'</em> is short on laughs for a "comedy horror", though I did still enjoy this film. The elements to do with the titular fish are pretty strong, they are portrayed in the right way so the humans do feel in suitable danger. The piranhas aren't shown much, which is smart. Obviously it is inspired by 1975's <em>'Jaws'</em> and does fall fairly far adrift of that classic, though that is...
