Available now on Prime Video, YouTube TV etc........looks better than the Oscar level quality of Piranha.



Produced by some neighbors of ours here in the Refuge and the majority of the off water shots are filmed in the Refuge. Lots of familiar locations, Kokomos, etc. The mechanic guy kind of looks like RiverDave and I think he should have been cast in the role.

I knew about it a few years ago. Larry is a great guy. The year I 'retired' I went to universal and back stage to watch waterworld where he was working as a stuntman. I almost took a job there, almost. Living in LA at the time wouldn't have worked with a pregnant wife.
Guess I need to watch it

I watched it on the magic box Monday night and thought the same thing! 🤣🤣

The main characters (Billy) acting chops are a little rough, but the movie was entertaining. I’m gonna drop a spoiler though, for a movie based in LHC and kicking a party vibe... There’s no damn TITTIES!!! 🤬😡🤣🤣

You remember that old dirt bike movie winners take all? This reminds me of that movie except with skis.
Cheesy race movies can be a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to watching this LOL

I saw it.


Once.
Once was too much. I was there just after they filmed and was boating around. The water was a gross reddish brown from the fake blood. We went to another area to jump in. Looked nasty.

I remember when they put out the call to get boats for background scene. I think it was on Hotboat.

Wonder how they pulled off that ski flying out of the pool scene. Thing coming down landing on the outside edge of the pool would do some serious damage you would think.

You mean you've never seen Piranha??? It was such a great flick! lol

Speaking of Piranha...the one filmed in LHC...my son and I had a father/son night when he was in JR high and I let him pick the movie from Redbox. He saw Piranha and I said, that one was filmed at the lake and he thought that was so cool and asked to rent it. I was like sure, how bad could it be. Well, there was one point in the movie where the girls were all naked, completely nude and his eyes were wider than the state of Texas! It was at that point I had to pause it and have THE TALK! I wasn't prepared to have it, but made my way through it.

Needless to say, I will never forget that movie!

That's awesome.

My bro in law did a bunch of behind the scenes work on this movie. Used my toon for a bunch of it too.

Needless to say...

Neither of us ever got paid! 🤣

Larry Rippenkroger is one of your neighbors? Nice, he was big in the jetski freestyle back when I was racing in the 90's

Wasn't there a few private boats that got wrecked during a wind storm that they never fixed either.

Yup, and boats had holes in the interiors from dancer with high heals on the hatch covers.

Where you’ve been lol they have been up especially if a reed engine. 😱🤔

Well this film should help it up even more! I have 2 of them bad boys collecting dust, both with reed motors. Problem is they are still so much fun to ride compared to the new ones, don’t know if I could ever sell them.
