Sharknado Tenth Anniversary Marathon Spins Onto SyFy July 18
The modern B-movie fixation with sharks started long before someone thought of putting them in a tornado, but it was that moment that kicked the whole trend into high gear. Ten years ago the first, instantly meme-able Sharknado movie premiered on DVD and SyFy. Now, on the tenth birthday of the world’s most peculiar weather pattern, SyFy presents the Sharknado marathon, featuring every movie in the series that was ever made. Altogether six of these were pushed out, but the number of adjacent, shark-tornado-inspired disaster films with cheap effects must number in the millions by now. There are people who owe their careers, such as they are, to Tara Reid and her crew of warriors who bravely faced shark-engorged twisters time and time again. SyFy’s Sharknado marathon begins at noon and runs until 6 AM the following day. 12 p.m. ET/PT, SHARKNADO: THE 4TH AWAKENS 2 p.m. ET/PT, SHARKNADO 3: OH HELL NO! 4 p.m. ET/PT, SHARKNADO 2: THE SECOND ONE 6 p.m. ET/PT, SHARKNADO 8 p.m. ET/PT, SHARKNADO 2:
