VIDEOS: Fans Review Piranha 3D

And taking Hollywood by surprise, PIRANHA 3D - via a partnership with Funny Or Die - is the subject of a much-talked about campaign to be named Best Picture of the year.  Funny Or Die’s “For Your Consideration” video for PIRANHA 3D took the nation by storm last week.  And, as announced over the weekend, Academy Award ® nominee and Piranha 3D heroine Elisabeth Shue will debut a brand new video in the coming days on Funny Or Die. 

Run, don't walk: 'Piranha 3D' is hilariously, cleverly gory.  Mere words cannot describe how awesomely gnarly "Piranha 3D" is, how hugely entertaining, and how urgently you must get yourself to the theatre to see it. Like, now. - Christy Lemire, ASSOCIATED PRESS

 A bloody entertaining blast of a flesh-eating fish-out-of-water story..."Piranha 3D," a pitch-perfect, guilty-pleasure... - Michael Rechtshaffen, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER & REUTERS

‘Piranha 3D’ Is A Campy Masterpiece Of A Movie!  My prediction: If you have an ounce of fun in your body, you will love this movie about killer piranhas that overtake a town of hotties — in 3D! - Russ Weakland, HOLLYWOOD LIFE

Earlier this week, buzz about PIRANHA 3D reached a fever pitched when the year’s first “For Your Consideration” ad hit the internet, touting Dimension Films’ Piranha 3D as a top candidate for Best Picture of the year.  The Weinstein Company and Dimension Films partnered with Funny Or Die, a wildly popular comedy website founded by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay and viewed by 35 million people each month, in making the star-studded video advertisement promoting Piranha 3D for Best Picture. 
 
Directed by Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes, Mirrors), produced by Mark Canton (300, upcoming Immortals) and starring Elisabeth Shue, Jerry O'Connell, Jessica Szohr (Gossip Girl), Steven R. McQueen (Vampire Diaries and grandson of the legendary actor), Eli Roth, Adam Scott, Kelly Brook (current cover of Playboy), Riley Steele, Paul Scheer, Ving Rhames, Ricardo Chavira, Richard Dreyfuss and Christopher Lloyd, PIRANHA 3D opened to rave reviews from the Associated Press and other top critics.
            

Every year the population of sleepy Lake Victoria explodes from 5,000 to 50,000 for Spring Break -- a riot of sun and drunken fun.  But this year, there's something more to worry about than hangovers and complaints from local old timers.  A new type of terror is about to be cut loose on Lake Victoria.  After a sudden underwater tremor sets free scores of the prehistoric man-eating piranhas, an unlikely group of strangers must band together to stop themselves from becoming fish food for the area's new razor-toothed residents. 
PIRANHA 3D is a Dimension Films release and presentation of a Mark Canton / IPW production in association with Aja/Levasseur Prods; produced by Mark Canton, Marc Toberoff, Alexandre Aja, Gregory Levasseur.  Executive producers are Bob Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, Alix Taylor, Louis G.
