Storyline
Lake Victoria's annual Spring party by 50,000 young revelers is about to turn into a feeding frenzy with prehistoric hunger-pains. With knee-trembler's above the waves and tremors below, released from their dormant sleep, thousands upon thousands of flesh-eating nippers are released into the lake with whetted appetites and razor-sharp teeth. With a motley crew of strangers thrown together to defend these shores, it is now up to them to prevent the largest eat-out in human, and piranha, history. Written by Cinema_Fan

Trivia
The brand of tequila they have on the Wild Wild Girls boat is Havasu Tequila. This is most visible during the body shots scene. Lake Havasu is where this was filmed. See more »Goofs
Plot holes: The ski rope attached to the 'sinking' boat was being held tight by the ski boat applying constant forward throttle. More than one person on the rope at a time would obviously make the rope sag, and it did, especially with 4 on it at once, enough that the first person was killed by the piranhas who could reach her.

After the credits a severed partially skeletal head is shown sinking to the lake floor. See more »Soundtracks
