After the success of Jaws in 1975, many other films tried to cash in, long before the sharksploitation genre really went into overdrive in the 2000s. Roger Corman was quick to hop on the bandwagon, but instead of going with a BIG SHARK, he went the opposite, with a small type of killer fish: Piranhas!

December 8, 2024 at 8:28 pmFun fact, that Jaws arcade game is unlicensed! Atari made ‘shark JAWS’ (you can see the tiny ‘shark’ on the cabinet logo) as a quick tie in without worrying about copyright suits. A very Roger Corman move for the early games industry.
