Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Frankenfish
A pair of giant, mutant, killer fish terrorize a river on the southern coast. A scientist is sent to investigate. He meets up with a group of people who live in houseboats on the river.
The fish destroy all of the boats, leaving the people stranded on the river. The fish begin killing the people one by one.
A fisherman is able to kill one of the fish, but he's quickly killed by the other fish. The people have no way to escape and no way to defend themselves. Just in time, three surly fishermen show up in a fanboat to rescue the survivors. Everyone piles into the boat, but before they get the people to safety, the fishermen go after the last fish. They're able to destroy the mutant fish, ending the terror and saving the people along the river.
