‘Sharknado 5’ Has Been Announced Because Of Course It Has.

Published

on

Sharknado is a very love it or hate it kind of film, and with a reputation like that it has garnered a pretty infamous reputation.  Well whatever your personal feelings may be about the aforementioned film it looks like it’s here to stay with another entry in the franchise.  It still baffles me that we collectively as a species have allowed this to happen…

Sharknado 5 was recently announced with some new details dropping for the general public.  The new working title is Sharknado 5… Earth 0.  While the title may be more clever than the previous entries, that pun still causes physical pain.  This entry is a direct sequel to Sharknado 4 and its cliffhanger ending.

So for any fans out there who just couldn’t wait to see how the cliffhanger would be resolved, worry not this ridiculous natural disaster has got you covered.  Ian Ziering and Tara Reid will reprise their respective roles in this sequel, and the story this time around will focus on Ziering’s character and his family.

Sharknado 5’s plot is is shaping up to be the most ridiculous yet in the entire franchise, which is truly a sight to behold.  It’s unclear as to what to expect from this new entry in the franchise that has taken the world by storm as Thunder Levin, writer of the previous 4 films, is not returning to continue the story he’s helped to create.

Taking his place instead is Scotty Mullen who has helped work on Sharknado 4 and other low budget horror gems such as Zoombies.  Fans of Mullen’s work should at least know what to expect from this new disaster intent on destroying the world.

These films have never been known for their charm or heartwarming stories, as long as the new sequel sticks to the ridiculous plot lines and laughable character decisions fans should be pleased.  Prepare yourselves for what may be the end of the franchise, and is looking to be most ridiculous entry yet.  Good luck everyone, I fear we may need it with this one.

Everyone knows Stephen King as possibly one of the greatest horror authors to ever grace our eyes, but can say they remember his appearance in PSA for a library? Give it a look, it’s definitely worth the watch and a fantastic reminder of a simpler time before flying sharks took the internet by storm.

Netflix Releases First BTS ‘Fear Street: Prom Queen’ Footage

Published

on

It’s been three long years since Netflix unleashed the bloody, but enjoyable Fear Street on its platform. Released in a tryptic fashion, the streamer broke up the story into three episodes, each taking place in a different decade which by the finale were all tied together.

Now, the streamer is in production for its sequel Fear Street: Prom Queen which brings the story into the 80s. Netflix gives a synopsis of what to expect from Prom Queen on their blog site Tudum:

“Welcome back to Shadyside. In this next installment of the blood-soaked Fear Street franchise, prom season at Shadyside High is underway and the school’s wolfpack of It Girls is busy with its usual sweet and vicious campaigns for the crown. But when a gutsy outsider is unexpectedly nominated to the court, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.” 

Based on R.L. Stine’s massive series of Fear Street novels and spin-offs, this chapter is number 15 in the series and was published in 1992.

Fear Street: Prom Queen features a killer ensemble cast, including India Fowler (The Nevers, Insomnia), Suzanna Son (Red Rocket, The Idol), Fina Strazza (Paper Girls, Above the Shadows), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty, Cinnamon), Ella Rubin (The Idea of You), Chris Klein (Sweet Magnolias, American Pie), Lili Taylor (Outer Range, Manhunt) and Katherine Waterston (The End We Start From, Perry Mason).

No word on when Netflix will drop the series into its catalog.

Known as Mystery Inc., the crew consists of Fred Jones, Daphne Blake, Velma Dinkley, and Shaggy Rogers, and his best friend, a talking dog named Scooby-Doo.

Normally the episodes revealed the hauntings they encountered were hoaxes developed by land-owners or other nefarious characters hoping to scare people away from their properties. The original TV series named Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! ran from 1969 to 1986. It was so successful that movie stars and pop culture icons would make guest appearances as themselves in the series.

Celebrities such as Sonny & Cher, KISS, Don Knotts, and The Harlem Globetrotters made cameos as did Vincent Price who portrayed Vincent Van Ghoul in a few episodes.
