Piranha 3D (2010)

Combine the bloodshed of storming the beaches of Normandy found in Saving Private Ryan with Girls Gone Wild on location at Panama City Beach and Jurassic Park and you’ve got Piranha 3D.

Flesh bounces, jiggles, glistens, fillets, tears, and bleeds unmercifully in the abomination. Let’s just say director Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes remake, High Tension, Mirrors) goes for broke blurring the line between camp, porn, and bad taste in this rehash of Joe Dante’s 1978 cult classic.

As I see it, just know you are going to see a movie where it is appropriate to yell ‘that’s what she said’ at the screen after every sentence. You’re going for gratuitous nudity, innumerable deaths, and campy humor. You’re going to have blast despite shoddy special effects and nonexistent plot.
