After missing its projected November release—and well, the nature of the film in general—the certainty with which PIRANHA 3DD would hit theaters was already in question. How's it looking now?

Shock Till You Drop spotted the British Video Association's news that PIRANHA 3DD will DVD and Blu in the UK on March 19, with a note that it was pulled from schedule, as far as its theatrical release goes. It's been mainly silent on the PIRANHA front following the trailer debuted in November during the Spike Awards, and while this could have no bearing on how Dimension releases it in the states, its fate does seem up in the air.

The site also offered up this new synopsis of the John Gulager-helmed sequel: "Horror sequel in which a species of violent prehistoric piranha continue to terrify a small town. The chaos unleashed in PIRANHA 2010) by a group of the omnivorous fish, set free by an earthquake that split the floor of a lake, may only have been the beginning. The tests of marine biologist Carl Goodman (Christopher Lloyd) indicate that these fish were only adolescents, suggesting their parents would be even fiercer adversaries. When the piranha make their way into the town's plumbing system, the terror spreads. Soon swimming pools and even the town's brand new waterpark are infested by the bloodthirsty critters. Can the town's residents, marshalled by survivor of the first movie Deputy Fallon (Ving Rhames), find a way to combat their sharp-teethed tormentors?"
