This movie was done on a $1 million dollar budget. Mr. Clean commercials cost $1.5-$2 million dollars and don't get this kind of buzz.

But in all honesty, it was ridiculously hilarious, which I think was the point.

ok pitch him this idea... a hurricane hits brazil along the Amazon river... sweeping up swarms of piranha that are deposited in columbia. Drug lords versus giant waves of piranha in the air! Too derivative? ok ok how about a meteor hits Peru launching thousands of llama into the atmosphere then they fall to earth in Texas as mutated radioactive monster llama (with beaks for eating honey)!!!

It's sure to be a hit!

RUN FOR YOUR LIVES IT'S A LLAMA!

What's hilarious is that this dopey $1 million dollar budgeted movie took over Twitter tonight and probably brought massive ratings to SyFy.

Dude I don't doubt it at all. It's absurd enough to get talked about and the buzz on something like this is priceless. I find it hard to believe it only had a million dollar budget though. Did they not have to pay the sharks scale?

Did you by chance see it? The sharks at the toy store are more convincing!
