Here’s a really fun interview I did with Hunter Stephenson of /Film hunterstephenson: Exclusive: Hunter Stephenson Interviews Paul Scheer on Next Year’s Piranha 3-D, Its Surprising Connection to Jaws, Rambo-level Gore, and Nude Wild Wild Girls /Film: In real life, the U.S. government has been ousted for breeding super-piranhas and dumping them into Lake Havasu to control the guido and Gotti populations. Is that the scenario in the movie? Paul Scheer: [laughs] Here’s the thing: everyone is like “This a very original idea for a horror movie.” But it’s really not. The movie is actually a really effective PSA made by the government to let everyone know that piranhas really exist. And from this PSA, based on what I’ve seen, l can tell you that the piranhas and the government do not like people who wear Ed Hardy. People who wear Ed Hardy in this movie get attacked more ferociously than anyone else. And in Lake Havasu, you see a lot of hardcore dudes there with tatts and dyed-blonde hair and they fucking carry guns on their person. [laughs] So, it’s crazy because Alex Aja has such a great eye—especially for a French guy—he really gets spring break [in the U.S.]. He captures it perfectly, and it’s unbelievable.
