Film trailer: 'Piranha 3D'

(All Rights Reserved)

"The Jaws" of summer 2010, the title Piranha 3D says it all, like Snakes on a Plane. This horror thriller is loosely based on Joe Dante's 1976 movie. Directed by Alexandre Aja ( The Hills Have Eyes).

The story takes place at Lake Victoria where an underwater earthquake has unleashed an army of prehistoric man-eating piranhas on the unsuspecting tourist town where thousands are enjoying vacation and spring break. Suddenly they're being devoured while swimming.

The sheriff, played by Elisabeth Shue ( Leaving Las Vegas, Adventure), must protect the town and destroy the man-eating creatures. The 3D effects can only make the monster fishes' razor-tooth jaws all the more terrifying.

The cast also includes Ving Rhames ( Pulp Fiction), Richard Dreyfuss, and Christopher Lloyd.

The film releases in the US on August 27 and the UK on August 20.
