Piranha 3D Sequel Gets Title - Piranha 3DD (Double D)

Probably as a homage to the numerous exposed breasts in this summers horror remake, Piranha part two, which was greenlighted just days after being released (even though it had a less than spectacular box office opening) is being called "Piranha 3DD."  Whether that occurred because of it's 75 percent critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes or the fact that it easily recouped it's 24 million dollar budget Dimension Films is rushing the sequel into production.

Video is not safe for work and is rated R.


The studio has hired Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan - the writers behind "Saw 3D" - to handle the script and John Gulager to direct. All three worked on the horror film "Feast" which was the winner of one season of "Project Greenlight."  The film may be ready to open in theaters next summer.
I didn't have the chance to see this but my brother and his son both thought it was a very good movie.  My brother, incidentally has a movie review blog titled "Clyde's Movie Palace."  You can visit his site by clicking here.  Until Piranha 3D is released on video in January, you can watch the original by clicking on the link to your left.
