SOURCE-Prime Video
Around 14 years ago I watched when it debuted on the SYFY Channel. Back then every other month I would drive to the coast to help out with my grandpa. I was over at my cousin's house hanging out,her and her family were going to see some nieces band concert.I elected to stay at their place. Saw Piranhaconda was debuting put it on expecting to see at most an hour before they got back. The concert went on for 4 hours and by the time they got home I was crashed out on the couch.
Down in Hawaii we got a film crew making a slasher film,while a group lead by scientist Michael Madson is looking for eggs from a mythic creature. The mother that laid that egg is out to get her baby back.
Directed by Jim Wynorski and produced by Roger Corman this is a modern creature feature. One that decades ago would have played drive ins on double and triple features for years. With drive ins sadly almost dead the new venue for these types of films back in 2012 was SYFY channel. Now they just appear on TUBI.
The creature of course is CGI and ok looking CGI. The cast is made up of people you are like I know them but have no clue what their name is. Being filmed in Hawaii the scenery looks great.
Having seen Sharktopus,by Roger Corman,I knew going in what to expect. And got what I expected.So kills. Lots of shots of women in bikinis. And a decent way to pass 2 hours.
Piranhaconda gets a C-
