Sharknado

From surfing, boating, and diving trips gone wrong to sci-fi disaster flicks with bite, these are great shark movies.

Syfy’s Sharknado has taken us around the world and into space, so there’s one way this had to end. New reports suggest the absurd and beloved franchise is chomping its teeth to a close, and will travel through time for its ultimate end.

Ah, to live in a world where the Trump presidency’s biggest disaster was a Sharknado. It almost happened, as the Apprentice host very nearly played the second sequel’s president, and – in true Trump fashion – threatened to sue when producers rescinded the offer.

Every year we ask ourselves how Sharknado might up the ante, and you don’t get much bigger than the full Independence Day. Watch Global Swarming send sharks after the world’s landmarks in a first teaser for Syfy’s fifth (!) Sharknado film.

Global Warming remains a very real threat to the world, but minor bright side – we don’t have flying sharks to deal with (yet). Not so for Sharknado, which winds into a fifth movie with a new Global Swarming subtitle, and a list of cameos from Fabio, to Tony Hawk, Kathy Lee Gifford and even a Game of Thrones White Walker.

In all the chaos of recent months, you’d be forgiven to find the satire of Sharknado quaint at this point. Nonetheless, flying sharks will spread equally worldwide with a fifth installment of Syfy’s signature film, taking stars Ian Ziering and Tara Reid on an international production.

The third in the Sharknado franchise (a real phrase I just typed) already took us to space, so how might The 4th Awakens top it? Anything you can imagine, whether fire-nados, cow-nados, Chippendales dancers crotch-thrusting sharks to the ground, and of course, giant chainsaws and mech suits. Don’t believe us? See the trailer for yourself.

If nothing else, Sharknado fans would surely tune into fourth Syfy installment The 4th Awakens to learn the fate of Tara Reid’s April, but why wait? Syfy has revealed the answer weeks ahead of the premiere, and no red witch can resurrect Sharknado out of this one.

At this rate, the world’s about ready for a new Sharknado to liven up our national turmoil, and Syfy is only-too-happy to oblige. Looks like the sharks are taking aim at Las Vegas (and maybe even Wolverine?) in the first official footage from Syfy’s Sharknado: The 4th Awakens.

We probably should have seen coming that Syfy’s fourth Sharknado outing The 4th Awakens would look to capitalize on the annual Star Wars day, and if ever you thought a galaxy far, far away could use some flying sharks, today’s your day. Take a look at the Force Awakens-style poster for Sharknado’s next storm, along with the full roster of C-list cameos!
