“A freak hurricane hits Los Angeles, causing man-eating sharks to be scooped up in water spouts and flooding the city with shark-infested seawater. Surfer and bar-owner Fin (Ziering) sets out with his friends Baz (Jaason Simmons) and Nova (Scerbo) to rescue his estranged wife April (Reid) and teenage daughter Claudia (Aubry Peeples). He succeeds, but April's boyfriend is eaten by the sharks. The group meets up with Matt (Chuck Hittinger), the adult son of Fin and April, who is in flying school. They decide to try to stop the threat of the incoming "sharknadoes" by tossing bombs into them from helicopters,” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharknado).
“As Nova prepares to throw one of the bombs, she falls out of the helicopter and directly into a shark's mouth. Matt, who has fallen for her, is heartbroken. Baz is also lost in the storm. After Matt lands on the ground, a flying shark plummets toward the remaining members of the group. Fin jumps into its mouth with a chainsaw and cuts his way out. He emerges carrying an unconscious but miraculously unharmed Nova. Matt is reunited with Nova and Fin gets back together with April,”(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharknado). [5]
With all of America being fascinated
by Sharknado, the Syfy movie has been a hit all summer. With its own hash tag, people
have been facebooking and twitting about it as they can’t get enough!
A Link to the trailer is below:
The trailer sparks an interested
question, is this movie too violent for TV? That is a very good question and
point. I think that this might be slightly more violent than other Syfy movies
that have been produced and aired on their station.
However, this is an
extremely popular debate topic. After reading about this issue and viewing the trailer,
which side do you take? Is it too violent for TV? Yes or No?
