The joke that ran its course three films ago is back again, and this time a ton of people who are questionably still famous are joining the cast as food! Get ready to hate-watch yet another Sharknado film on August 6.
Officially titled Sharknado 5: Global Swarming, the fifth installment in The Asylum’s most absurd film series promises to “Make America Bait Again.” According to SyFy, “the mission gets personal for Fin Shepard (Ian Ziering) and his bionic wife, April (Tara Reid) when their young son gets trapped in a traveling ‘nado and transported all over the world. From London to Rio, Tokyo, Rome, Amsterdam and beyond, our globetrotting heroes will seek assistance from a highly-skilled squad of royals, scholars and Olympians, enlisting famous faces from news, entertainment, and sports in their most epic battle yet.”
You know, we’re actually impressed that a movie this absurd has managed to get progressively crazier for four sequels. Kudos to the writers.
