The ending makes no sense


I realize i shouldn't be bothered by a movie this absurd but the ending just drove me insane. Hundreds, if not, thousands of piranha alive and they celebrate the killing of one! Just because they start swarming doesn't mean they decide to start attacking one another! Did i miss something?!

Help... I have the same question....

None of it makes sense.

Fish attacking buildings
Fish attacking helicopters

........... and casting Tiffany.

This movie is great!!!!!

reply

Yeah, how big a star is Tiffany really? She must be huge using only her first name... or a pornstar....

I suspect that they filmed the cast and crew being told that filming was over for this production (much to everyone's obvious delight), and then used THAT as the film's finale.

They never intended on finishing the film that way. They ran out of lunch money, and couldn't complete the film under budget.

> They never intended on finishing the film that way.

They had enough money to film a nuclear explosion. If they were running out of money they could have ended the movie with the explosion and called it good.

Fortunately the movie was so bad that it was funny. I gave it a rating of "3" which is far higher than I would have given it had it not been so funny.

I saw this movie last night and wondered this too... How would they "turn on each other" after attacking one fish? The only thing I can think of is that so many will be at that one spot so it's possible that other fish will be accidentally bitten too.... maybe. I don't know.

reply

Even if they did turn on each other, wouldn't there still be one fish left at the end of all of it?

The ending was so amazing. I was watching this with some friends and we were all like "WHAT?". We thought there would be more, but... then the credits came.

I expect something like this from an Asylum film, but man... that killed me. I was laughing so hard. I was thinking... okay, lets imagine they all attack each other after killing the wounded one (for some reason, lets say another gets wounded as they are all attacking the first one), no matter what there would be one at the end. And they did say that these fish were hermaphrodites and could mate with themselves, so it would just create bigger and bigger piranha and they'd still be screwed.

But the terrible ending is one of the reasons why I loved this movie. Fish flying into buildings with their tails wagging, Fitch KICKING piranhas a they are flying at him on the beach, the piranhas eating that HUGE boat... this movie was so awesome. It's definitely one of my favourite terrible movies.

I, for one, would like to know why every time a giant piranha flies into a building, it immediately explodes.

Gas... :P

Let it ride...

so many awesome points about this incredibly bad movie. i was wondering the exact same thing...the piranha were like flying bombs.

reply

Me too, how did those piranhas go kaboom? lol

If Fitch expected the idea to work how does he explain the fact that there were any left after they stopped attacking him. Wouldn't they have just eaten each other up then? OK that's the extent of my questioning the film (otherwise I'd be here all week.) Now my attempt at explaining the ending. As you watched the giant fish tear into the wounded one you will notice that it never gets any smaller. My theory, and the one Fitch obviously figured out, was that even when decapitated and being devoured these fish will continue to grow exponentially and as long as the food source continues to grow the others will keep attacking it and leave everything else alone. To this day, off the Florida Keys (or was it the panhandle, I forget where the attack actually occurred since they mentioned both places)there is a huge swarm of giant piranhas attacking a single dead but still growing fish and that is keeping the world safe.
