Aja dreading Piranha

Last Updated on July 27, 2021

Pimp-daddy horror director Alexandre Aja had a chance to chat with Fangoria about his upcoming project, the remake of PIRANHA–this time, in 3-D.

What makes this chat so compelling is that it appears as though Aja is dreading the shoot more than any other movie he’s ever done. Check out this little snippet:

I think I picked the worst project for me. You cannot do worse than water, underwater kids, spring break, shooting during summer, a lot of CGI, a lot of prosthetics. I have the worst elements for a movie…

But don’t worry! While he seems to be dreading the project, he’s also really looking forward to the challenge and can’t wait for production to begin later next month. Oh those directors, they’re so dramatic! I know about a thousand other people who would be more than happy to be in Aja’s shoes right now…

Pokes aside, Aja actually sounds enthusastic and excited about starting PIRANHA 3-D, and honestly… so am I! Another 3-D movie featuring killer fish? I’m so there!
