Piraconda

Some nice looking people running from a horrible looking, helicopter chomping, snake piranha thing.

I really wish that the Syfy channel would make a minimal effort to keep their original movies somewhat believable. This movie has a fish species cross breeding with a reptile. I can not even imagine how that would happen in real life. I mean if they are going to plot this scenario make it on another planet not on earth. It is easy enough to put aside believe if it is not on earth. Yeah I know they are science fiction and fantasy but this one is not at all believable to me. Of course the acting is B movie but the theme is totally lame. The women in bikinis are not bad so there is some entertainment in this movie but not that much.

This movie is one of the worst syfy movies I've ever seen. I have watched a lot of trash syfy but this one makes all the others look great. The cast always choose the dumbest course of action. This is definitely not worth any of your time.

OK, I'll try to sum it up. First, a Captain Ahab wannabe scientist discovers a half piranha, half anaconda in Hawaii. He gets one of its eggs and escapes, only to be kidnapped by some criminals whose activities are unexplained. Meanwhile, a low-budget film crew is shooting a lousy horror movie, though it can't be as terrible as this movie. The criminals kidnap part of the film crew to hold them for ransom, but they run into the piranhaconda, and then a second piranhaconda shows up for good measure. It's never really explained how a piranha-anaconda could create a hybrid breed, and it's also never explained how it wound up in Hawaii, which is not native to either creature. The film stars Michael Madsen as the mad scientist/hostage and Rachel Hunter as the diva star of the terrible movie, both obviously in it for an easy paycheck. It was produced by none other than Roger Coreman, who made several terrible science fiction films in the 1950's. Here, he proves that he hasn't lost his touch- he can still make terrible science fiction movies. In place of unconvincing zipper-backed monsters, we have unconvincing computer animated monsters, complete with laughable death scenes where even the victims seem to have difficulty keeping straight faces. The Sci Fi Channel strikes again, strikes out that is.

I am some one who like monster movies most of the time. I think there are a lot of monster movies that are underrated. But I have to say this movie stinks. It is terriebale movie with awful acting. And an awful story line. It is not scary at all. The ending is terriebale. Do not see this movie.
