The video version is missing the scene that introduces the two female boaters Jai and Loretta who are sunbathing topless on their boat. Also in the video version, the scene of the teen couple Chris and Allison making out in the waterfall is much darker obscuring Allison's nudity. See more »
...the flying piranha special effect (is it a special effect?!), it has to be one of the worst moments in cinema history!.
Pros: it has hot girls in bikinis. That's it. Cons: a dumb plot, horrible special effects -the flying piranhas say it all-, a bad score, a bad cinematography, bad acting. It's even worse that the original "Piranha": This one didn't even try to be a good horror movie. I wonder what's James Cameron opinion about this movie, I'm sure he's not proud of it. Avoid this one, watch JAWS instead.
