Gary Busey, currently known for the best set of crazy eyes this side of Michelle Bachmann, has joined the cast of Piranha 3DD.  The press release describes Busey's role as "potential fish bait", but no matter his character, I seriously doubt he'll be asked to give a performance equal to his Oscar-nominated turn as Buddy Holly in The Buddy Holly Story.  That's right: Gary Busey was a serious actor at one point and not just a walking punchline.  But since Piranha 3DD is tongue-in-cheek (before angry fish devour your tongue and cheek), I don't think that should be a problem.  Hopefully, the resurgence of Busey will lead to Comedy Central finally releasing the short-lived series I'm With Busey on to DVD.

Piranha 3DD also stars Danielle Panabaker, Matt Bush, Chris Zylka, David Koechner, and Meagan Tandy.  The film is due out in 3D on November 23rd.
