A year and a half ago, we heard that one of the projects coming down the line from the legendary company Full Moon was something called Piranha Women. At the time, the movie was expected to be written and directed by Lindsey Schmitz, who previously brought us the Full Moon releases Femalien: Cosmic Crush and Cassex. But once Piranha Women went into production, the writer/director at the helm was Fred Olen Ray, who is just as legendary as Full Moon in his own way. To see how Ray’s take on Piranha Women turned out, check out the trailer embedded above!
Described as both a “high concept exploitation epic” and a “wacky little flick”, Piranha Women is about
a tribe of sexy ladies who keep a toothy, terrifying secret beneath their bikini tops!

It’s said to be “like a Lifetime thriller… with teeth! And with boobs with teeth! Yow!”
The film stars Sof Puchley (Gatham), Nathaniel Moore (When I’m with You), Carrie Overgaard (The Get Lost Losers), and Keep Chambers (Evil Bong 888: Infinity High).
Ray earned his 163rd directing credit on Piranha Women, and he’s already in post-production on his 164th film. This isn’t the first time he has collaborated with Full Moon founder Charles Band; he previously directed the 2000 horror movie Sideshow for Band.
Like many of Full Moon’s recent releases, Piranha Women will be reaching the Full Moon Features channel and app (and Full Moon’s Amazon Prime channel) in two chapters. The first chapter of Piranha Women will be released through the Full Moon Features channel and app on June 17th, and will be available on Full Moon’s Amazon Prime channel the following week.
