Piranha 3DD (2012) 5/10

Starring : Danielle Panabaker, Matt Bush, Katrina Bowden, Jean-Luc Bilodeau, David Koechner, Chris Zylka
Director : John Gulager
Running Time : 83 mins

Just when the residents of Lake Victoria think that their problems with prehistoric piranha are over, local businessman Chet (Koechner) starts pumping the lake water into his adult-themed water park in order to cut costs. His step-daughter, marine biology student Maddy (Panabaker), comes home for the holidays and is horrified by what Chet has done with the place, but when she realizes that the piranha have returned she is more worried about what could happen to the general public.

Whereas the previous Piranha movie had some semblance of a plot and some attempt to take itself seriously, this completely slips into self-parody almost immediately. The acting is bad, the plot is almost non-existent and seems to be more about showing boobs than anything else, and the special effect for the piranha look like they are made out of rubber. Fans of the 2010 movie will not like this, although David Hasselhoff’s version of himself in the movie is at times quite funny.
