Episode 331: Piranha (1978)

Rundown

This show is no stranger to killer animal movies, but you'll be surprised to learn that this week's movie was NOT picked by one of the hosts, but rather our illustrious guest Gelsey Laurie from the podcast Before My Time. She braved the deep end of late 70s Corman schlock and graced us with Joe Dante's directorial debut, PIRANHA (1978)! Tune in as we puzzle over what hungry tropical fish sound like as they murder innocent swimmers (hint: it's either birds or medical equipment) and relive the childhood trauma this film inflicted upon us. Get in the water or Paul Bartel is going to say some really disheartening things to you.
