John Sayles wrote the witty screenplay for this crackerjack Jaws spoof, Joe Dante’s solo Hollywood directorial debut. In it, genetically modified, man-eating fish escape into a lake at a summer resort, terrorizing kids and vacationers. Kevin McCarthy, Dick Miller, Barbara Steele, and Paul Bartel co-star. “A great modern horror movie with thrills, blood, laughs, and a cast picked to please the fans.” –Psychotronic Encyclopedia of Film. 95 min.
