If you were a fan of PIRANHA 3D (and come on who wasn’t?), and have been waiting for the inevitable sequel… your wait is almost over. The ever so appropriately titled PIRANHA 3DD picks up where the last one left off, even bringing back familiar characters, some you might have thought were surely dead. The new movie stars Danielle Panabaker, Matt Bush, Chris Zylka, David Koechner, Meagan Tandy, Paul James Jordan, Jean-Luc Bilodeau, Hector Jimenez, Adrian Martinez, Clu Gulager, Gary Busey, Katrina Bowden, Christopher Lloyd, Ving Rhames, Paul Scheer and the one and only David Hasselhoff. It’s directed by John Gulager (FEAST) and written by SAW 3D‘s Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton. Check out the self-consciously over-the-top trailer below… Good Lord I hope Hasselhoff dies horribly in this, and I say that because I like the guy. Heh.
Having awoken from their spring break extravaganza at Lake Victoria, the swarm heads upstream where they look to make a meal out of Big Wet, a local water park where when it comes to fun, nobody does it wetter! Thought they came to get wet, get loaded and get some, the staff and patrons get more than they bargained for when they must face the fiercest, most bloodthirsty piranhas yet. Lead by the strong-willed, studious Maddy and her friends, Barry and Kyle, the trio must dive in and take on these man-eating creatures using every ounce of their being…but can they be stopped?
PIRANHA 3DD opens April 5, 2012
