Every so often in the history of cinema, a film comes along that probes man's inhumanity to man and muses on the enigmatic silence of God throughout human history. Such a film eschews easy answers while engaging the audience in sensitive portrayals of ordinary heroes. Sharknado is that film. And the trailers are here at last.
It took "Snakes on a Plane" four words to sum up the dramatic premise that Sharknado achieves in one: live sharks raining down on people. Cinemaphiles have to reach back to "Mant" ("Half man, half ant: all terror") for disciplined minimalism on this level.

No, I still have nothing.
Wait, now I do.
I may rent it, along with Battleship, just to see if they reach the lows of "Killer Tomatoes" or Santa Clause vs. the Martians.

My neighbors tuned in for a few minutes, but it was too much even for their finely honed sense of the ridiculous. I think psychoactive drugs might be required for full enjoyment.
"Mansquito" is still the finest of the genre, if you ask me.
Not that anyone did :p
