It wasn't that obscure a movie at one time
It's been mentioned in a few threads how obscure this movie is. Back in the 72-76 time period, this movie used to show up every few months on the NYC WPIX Channel 11 afternoon movie. In fact, I had the opposite situation described by other posters happen to me in the 80's. I saw 'Piranha' listed on a cable channel, tuned in expecting this movie and wound up with the later one with Bruce Gordon.
RIP Peter Brown. Met him a few times at the Lone Pine Film Festival. Nice guy!
