Piranhaconda
“Part Snake! Part Fish! All Killer!”
Premium Crap. CrapScore 74, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A movie crew in Hawaii gets caught between criminals, a stolen egg and a hybrid piranha-anaconda. Jim Wynorski folds the vacation scenery into a gleefully opportunistic monster plot. The ingredients are more memorable than the construction, making it a pick for established creature-feature enthusiasts.
