The "Piranha" Franchise And You Guessed It... Piranha Soup

NOTE: This podcast was rebranded on 5/29/25 as "Horror Movie Franchises".  This week we cover a creature feature. It's "Piranha". The original feature was created by King Of The B-Movies Roger Corman as a "Jaws" knockoff. It went on to have four more films in the franchise (with one being a remake). My suggestion is check our the fourth entry-- horror comedy "Piranha 3D". It's a lot of fun. There's tons of famous actors and the piranha are big and ferocious. Avoid "Piranha II: The Spawning" at all costs. The dialogue and acting are painful to view... and I've seen a lot of garbage.   It should come as no surprise that this week I went with a recipe for piranha soup. While you and I will probably never be able to make the dish, piranha soup is a stable during the rainy season in the Amazon basin for many locals.
