As tensions escalate within the U.S. government concerning the precarious situation of the nation’s avocado supply, the formidable “Piranha” tribe—comprised of cannibal women residing in the enigmatic “Avocado Jungle”—begins to unleash chaos. This tribe is infamous for their ritualistic slaughter of men, drawing the attention of Professor Margo Hunt, portrayed by Shannon Tweed, who is a distinguished feminist studies expert at Spritzer College. The government recruits her to establish a connection with these fearsome women. Accompanied by Jim (Bill Maher), a chauvinistic guide, and Bunny (Karen M. Waldron), a sweetly naive undergraduate, Dr. Hunt sets off on a dangerous expedition into the core of the Avocado Jungle.
