I love shark movies.
The Story:
A hurricane is bearing down on Los Angeles, and it's bringing killer sharks onto the land as the whole area is flooding.
Chaos ensues!
First, yes, I realized what I was getting into when I added this to the queue. It was from SyFy, and I've lamented their output on here many times. Their efforts are often pedestrian, at best, so why would I go through it?
Sharks.
I'm a sucker for a shark movie.
Yes, even the bad ones.
And this was spectacularly bad, in a car crash way that I couldn't not watch.
Watch as plot holes and ludicrous dialogue or (or? More like and...) cheesy special effects race across the screen at breakneck speed.
The movie brings Ian Ziering and Tara Reid to the big small screen as a former couple who have two kids that really need a slap upside the head.
Don't worry though, before the end of the film, those two will find their feelings reconciled after surviving dozens of deadly sharks being rained down into Los Angeles by way of tornados generated by hurricanes.
Forget that hurricanes are Atlantic Ocean storms, and typhoons generate in the Pacific, but apparently that logic was thrown out the door at the beginning.
Creative shark killing abounds as these poor critters are served up as fodder to these survivors.
Trust me, by the end, I was hoping a few people would still get eaten.
Thankfully...there's a sequel in the works. : /
And tell me if you find it creepy that the girl that likes Fin winds up in love with his son by the end of the movie.
Creepy.
Don't get me started on how she survives...
Final Grade: C-
Rewatchability/Purchase Factor: No, but I'll probably get suckered into Sharknado 2... I know... I'm ashamed too.
