- SynopsisAction suspense thriller. A gang raids a mining complex and steals a box of diamonds which they then hide in a reservoir, planning to retrieve them in sixty days once the police heat has cooled off. The gang's leader, Paul, has secretly filled the lake with piranhas to stop anyone helping him- or herself, but complications set in when a typhoon hits the area. At the same time, a fashion shoot is carrying on in the same location. Most of the gang find themselves stranded on a boat some way from the shore. With the boat sinking, it becomes a race against time to find a way of getting past the deadly killer piranha fish, as well as to deal with other forms of killer. (Synopsis)
