Dimension Films has chummed the internet with photos from its upcoming fish-&-chicks frightener Piranha 3-DD. The shots give us a peek at some of the film’s mayhem and stars (i.e. Danielle Panabaker, Katrina Bowden, Christopher Lloyd, The Hoff).

They also provide a look at the movie’s heart, namely the ridiculously busty brunette in the green bikini seen bouncing around in its trailer. While her name remains a mystery, it’s obvious that she’s the one person in the entire cast moviegoers will clearly be rooting for.

I, for one, don’t want to see any harm come to those beautiful floaties.

This year, however, Hardt is poised for superstardom with a new breakout part in Swamp Shark and Lake Placid 3 director Griff Furst’s new Syfy creature-feature Arachnoquake.  OK … so it won’t be a blockbuster, but Hardt’s character does have a name this time (Petra) and the flick sounds like a blast.

Arachnoquake finds giant albino spiders on a feeding rampage in the city of New Orleans after being set free from the earth’s core by a massive earthquake. Hardt stars alongside Edward Furlong (Terminator: Judgement Day), Bug Hall (Mortuary) and Tracey Gold (”Growing Pains”).
