Finally, I can order this.

I bundled it with Dragon Lord. I also wanted Heart of Dragon and The Fearless Hyena, but both are out of stock. It's lovely to get a mere £5 shipping charge in these times, as many label shops want to charge me over £15 to ship even one item to the USA.

Is this the same scan Shout used in their 2018 release?

pferreira · 08-24-2020, 05:00 PM

Good to see this coming out with a heap of extras.

I watched it last night too, lol.
So bad it's good, Tricia O'Neil was quite tasty though.
Shame 88 didn't include more extras like the Shout edition and the included trailer is terrible quality.
It's still a nice package and I'm happy to have it in my collection.

Yeah Tricia O'Neil was the highlight, could be Rachel Ward's twin.

I would have loved to have an interview with her on the Shout BD. But most of the ipeople involved have abandoned the film from their vitas it seems.

lol, that's exactly what I thought, I even double checked the credits to see who she was.

Tricia O'Neil

Rachel Ward

I don't know whether I should buy this. Obviously, it's a dreadful film, but it is a curio and I haven't seen it in years. I know it was never on the cards, but some kind of Cameron involvment with the extras would have made this a must buy!

It really is dreadful, its often on the UK Horror Channel where I saw it again recently and my opinion hasn't changed, I can see why Cameron doesnt want to talk about it. I'd rather pretend my first film was the classic Terminator too.

There was a funny new trailer for this back when the UK Sci-fi channel showed it around '97 - a guy at home listening to a radio news bulletin about the piranhas is attacked on the toilet!

ZeppelinRules · 08-25-2020, 03:20 PM

Tricia o'Neal played the only female captain of the USS Enterpise in ST:TNG. Just thought i'd put that out there.

Anybody else worried that a Blu Ray limited to *3000* copies - which has been available to preorder for at least 3 months - is still in stock on Zavvi, Zoom, HMV, Amazon and more? Is that how bad physical media sales have become? Or is just Piranha 2 lol

Killer Meteor · 08-27-2020, 11:28 AM

Given how many LEs there are, no wonder some things get left behind. There's no way I could afford everything I want!

Combination of being £14.99 for a film that has no bonus features listed on any pre-order page (shocking price if thats true!) and its Piranha 2! I honestly dont think I'd shell out for that kind of money for a film I liked with no features never mind Piranha 2 lol

A shame she didn't make it. They got rid of her pretty quickly.

No. Considering Indicator LEs tend to have the same print run and some of those take a while to go OOP.
