Piranha II: The Spawning
Dir: James Cameron
1981
*
Hard to believe James Cameron made both Terminator and Aliens within 6 years of making this nonsense. The original Piranha didn't warrant a sequel but then neither did Jaws, one just lead to the other. It's a lot more silly this time round but it's not 'So bad it's good' but more So bad it's just okay'. How do you up the ante now that people know not to go into the water? Flying Piranha of course! You can't fault the logic! Actually some of the effects are quite interesting. Not interesting as in 'Wow, that's good' but more 'How did they do that?'. You'll either love it or you'll hate it but you won't love it.
