Well folks, there you have it. The entire \u201cPiranha\u201d franchise review.<\/h3>\n

I\u2019ve quite enjoyed looking back over this franchise.<\/h3>\n

\nFor you eagle eyed viewers you’ll have noticed that in the first film the piranhas weren’t the only thing at that base, there was a sort of\u00a0mutant running around as well. I’ve always wondered what this was and what other\u00a0crazy things were going on in that lab.<\/h3>\n

Apparently after directing “Piranha II” Ovidio G. Assonitis was set to produce a third entry in the series in the early 1990s but the proposed third entry never materialized. All I can say is that whatever it would’ve been, we didn’t miss out.<\/h3>\n

The main problem I have with the reboot of the series is that it was a truly wasted opportunity, it had a chance to be a great monster movie with some serious gore and cool deaths, which essentially it had. Problem was the insane amount of sexualisation, it just ruined what could’ve been a great movie.<\/h3>\n

The series itself is, well let’s be honest, it’s not exactly great but that first film will always have a special place in my heart. It was a film that scared me so much I wouldn’t go swimming for a long time, nowadays I’m the proud owner of a red belly\u00a0piranha who I love watching swim around is tank, especially at feeding time.<\/h3>\n

The “Piranha” franchise is a weak one that started out with a great movie but then went south quickly, we can only imagine what could’ve been.<\/h3>\n
