‘Sharknado 2′ Gets a Title and Location, Will Offer a Second Helping of Shark-Filled Tornados
Though The Asylum have produced many a schlocky exploitation film with catchy titles (when they're not busy making low-budget knock-offs of big studio movies), for whatever reason 'Sharknado' caught the public's attention, or at least gave Twitter a chance to snark for two hours.
