What's left behind the scenes

  • Steven Spielberg was going to sue the filmmakers for plagiarism, but after watching the film, he abandoned the idea and then included Joe Dante among his protégés.
  • Roger Corman persistently demanded more bloody scenes, and the financial and technical capabilities for using piranha models were quite limited.
  • A 17-year-old Rob Bottin worked on the fish models at that time.
  • Maggie (Heather Menzies) is playing the video game "Jaws".
  • Heather Menzies was a Playboy magazine model.
  • Rubber figures on sticks were used to create the image of the piranhas.
  • Peter Fonda turned down the role of Paul Grogan.
  • Despite being a hit for New World Pictures, the film was shot in extremely difficult conditions, ranging from most of the actors being replaced at the last minute to film stock defects.
