I just learnt via Skræk og rædsel that Another World Entertainment is putting out Joe Dante's PIRANHA from 1978. Great news!
However, WHY NOT RELEASE IT ON A DOUBLE BILL WITH JAMES CAMERON'S SUPER SPLATTERY GORE FEST "PIRANHA PART 2: THE SPAWNING"!!!???
Now THAT'S a double bill that could've rocketed AWE into the world of über cool celeb video companies, LOL.
Here's a couple of memorable scenes:
However, despair not; PIRANHA 2 is out on a good, cheap and letterboxed DVD from the UK (get it from Play.com for around £5). Skip the reg. 1 DVD as it's fullscreen.
This one below (from MIA) is also from the UK and has a way cooler cover but unfortunately it's fullscreen.
I really think the sequel is almost TO boring, but I will buy that widescreen-release you mentioned :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to say I've never actually watched the sequel but I thought those clips looked like good fun.
ReplyDeleteI never liked PIRANHA.
ReplyDeleteThat's all.
In other news - I'll soon be a master of danish! I have a danish guy at work that I'm teaching computer shit! And in return he is teaching me danish. I nicknamed him reptilicus.
Haha, cool.
ReplyDeleteSo you never liked PIRANHA, how about the sequel?
Haven't seen it. But it seems like fun.
