Frankenfish
There is always something bloodthirsty lurking in the Louisiana Bayou. But there has never, ever, been anything like this. A pack of massive, genetically engineered flesh eating fish is combing the quiet waters of the river, searching for prey. Leaving a trail of mangled bodies along the riverbank, the creatures have local authorities scrambling to uncover what is causing the carnage and it quickly becomes clear that they are dealing with no ordinary predator - and these man-eaters far outweigh any killer they have ever come up against. Scientifically bred with a deadly snake and genetically conditioned to breathe both under water and on land, Frankenfish can hunt wherever humans tread. And they're fast. And they're hungry.

ooouuuhhh... it's the story about a big fish attacking people. It's kinda my fault, I should have guessed by the title that it would be that. It's not that the movie blows, it's just not really good, not original. Aside from the cute girl in the bikini that kept my attention, it was a nice waste of time. If you love "Fox's - When Animals Attack", this one's for youb-film bore - koth
I wanted to see this film ever since seeing the creepy frankenfish on display at the Toronto zoo. I read up about the fish and thought it would make for a great horror film subject.
Instead the fish was made the star of a laughable B-movie. It was not enough that the fish be shown as it is in real life, they had to make it ten times the size, I suppose in a hard fought effort by the filmmakers to make it ten times as silly... they suceeded.
I doubt even B-movie fans would buy into this because its really not that scary, has no interesting characters or plot.
Even the small amount of gratuatous nudity is not interesting.
But, it is evident that it had a limited budget, and by those standards, the special effects were pretty darn good.Frankenfish: Not Your Ordinary Fish Story - Aquaryan-BC
This movie is a cross between LAKE PLACID, PIRANHA and JAWS. The acting and storyline was tolerable, even the special effects were not bad. If you want to have some fish with your (potato) chips, then add this to your movie list; especially if you are a horror fan.
