Every year the population of sleepy Lake Victoria explodes from 5,000 to 50,000 for Spring Break, a riot of sun and drunken fun. But this year, there's something more to worry about than hangovers and complaints from local old timers; A new type of terror is about to be cut loose on Lake Victoria. After a sudden underwater tremor sets free scores of the prehistoric man-eating fish, an unlikely group of strangers must band together to stop themselves from becoming fish food for the area's new razor-toothed residents.

Awesome bloodfest. Lives up to its name and the horror monster booby-fest genre. Heaps of beautiful people being eaten alive. It had me in stitches and having to rewind some seasons for their pure awesomeness. Just loved it! hehe

Take this movie for what it is on face value - beautiful people being eaten by ugly creatures - expect much more and you will be disappointed. Thought it was ridiculous but hilarious. Only thing that let it down was a silly ending...the 'hero' cannot die..or can he??? It's 'gore horror' with T and A - don't take it seriously.

A disappointing remake. It relies heavily on ridiculous special effects and is more about T & A then providing a suspenseful storyline. Horrible...but for all the wrong reasons

Disappointed
says
I had such low expectations but this still failed to meet these. Just plain bad (not funny bad). No suspense, no plot, garbage effects, just bad. Any any film that can have me bored at nudity is just plain wrong. What a miss.

Crass, lowbrow and hilariously bad! Take it for what it is and enjoy the ride!

Ridiculous and over the top but provides a bit of fun... a good breakdown would be; Tits: 30% Ass: 20% Gore: 41% Jerry O'Connel: 6% Story: 1% Gets extra points for not pretending to be more than it is and for the inexplicable casting of a massive amount of recognisable talent!

Pathetic. I actually hired this movie because my granddaughter wanted to see it but am glad I watched it first because it was totally unsuitable for her. Basically the movie could be classed as 'soft porn'.

From near porn to horrific gore - ridiculous film (apart from the near porn aspect)

totally ridiculous and silly - almost an exact duplicate of "Jaws" but without the originality and fear factor that made Jaws so credible.

TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!! Pathetic acting! Pathetic story! Pathetic gratuitous nudity! It was a cross between the worst porno ever attempted and the worst thriller ever attempted. What a flop!

Worst movie for a long time. Plenty of gratuitous tit shots and no real acting/ plot. As a lover of potentially so bad it's good movies this was a huge disappointment.

There was a lot of nuddie breast shots which I didn't expect - really a lot! The gore and ending was good though. Looks like there could be a sequel...

Total and absolute nonsense. Not sure what 3D would achieve for this movie? Not a lot! It does well to hold a MA15+ rating since it is not the usual American spring break movie with the occasional bare female chest. They get a pretty good shot of eveything bare. Not sure what those reasonable actors were thinking when they signed on for this one. Needed to pay the rent?? So if you'd like to check out numerous enhanced breasts then rent it. Otherwise don't!

Think this was made for a male viewer ratio with over the top female nudity. Liked the cameo Richard D made at the start complete with Jaws "show me the way to go home" song. The violence was interesting

BWHAHAHAHA that was so bad it was FUNNY. Great soft porn for the hubby, so he got something out of it lots of boobs lol. Main attack scene was good, little story line, very light. Gotta watch it for a laugh.

If you into blood and gore this movie is for you. Lots of nudity but poor story line and bad acting. Can almost be classified a soft porn horror.

Got exactly what I expected. The major attack scene was incredibly gory but I enjoyed it for what it was. It is not meant to be taken seriously so yes it is bad but in a very fun way.

Tacky and stupid, without realism - but funny in a kind of b-grade horror way. Never seen so many naked breasts in one film!!!!!

This was a dreadful movie to watch. I don't normally come away from a movie not really liking it but this was such a try-hard film! This movie is obviously aimed at teenage males due to all the female nudity in it (full frontal and lots and lots of fake breasts) possibly watching it with a teenage female who loves to "scream and hide" during horror films (and I use that term VERY loosely). I would not class this as a horror film at all. Nothing about it is scary. It's borderline a comedy however it has absolutely no class and is totally unrealistic in graphics! A TOTAL DUD FILM!!

I found this very enjoyable, effects for blood and gore were good, and piranha effects were cheesy. This movie is funny in parts I know I laughed through it. The acting is bad and storyline is when you cut it down just hilarious and to rude to write. This movie tried to be bad and succeeded. Don’t buy it and treat it as a horror, buy it and treat it as a comedy and it will liven your day. 3.5/5
