Lazygamer editor Nick Mugabanakis (last name not real) tweeted at me late in the afternoon with this:
@onelargeprawn dude check out that trailer i jsut posted, you must put it up on your site. Its just too good
Judging by Nick’s terrible grammar and spelling, I gathered he was a little excited about something so I went fishing to find out what it was. From the loathsome depths of the film hell comes a movie so foul yet so hypnotically titillating. The low-budget made-for-TV flick is called Mega Piranha and stars one of my favourite singer-turned-actresses – 39-year-old Tiffany, famous for the track, “I Think We’re Alone Now” (refresh your memory here).
The only drawcard really is the fish, a strain of Megapiranha that have escaped their home in South America and travel to Florida to eat some tourists, a submarine, two battleships, and a helicopter. Perhaps they are missing some iron in their diet, but but let’s not dig into their reasoning or the wafer-thin plot. Switch your brain off and enjoy this delightfully bad trailer.
If you’re a fan of bad movies, then this must surely top your 2010 list. If it doesn’t, drop us a comment with the one that does.

you sure this wasn’t an april fools joke :)
According to the Huffington Post this ludicrous movie aired on the SyFy channel on April 10th.
Ha! So looking forward to that movie!
That is SO bad!
For some reason it reminds me of Stephen King’s “The Langoliers” Movie.
Now that was an awesome movie.
LOL! Glad you posted it up. What a gem!
Incidentally whilst we’re on the subject of bizarro trailers, have you seen BIG TITS ZOMBIE 3D – it’s not a porno, it’s Japanese ;-)
From the wacky trailer (see here) I have surmised it is about deadly D-cupped strippers battling it out against all manner of zombies – sushi zombie, ping pong zombie, samurai zombie, and many more! WIN!
