Sharknado Coming to Theaters for One Night Only

Did you miss Syfy’s campy original movie Sharknado? If so, and if you want to catch sharks hurtling through the air on a big screen, NCM Fathom Events and The Asylum are hosting a one-night-only midnight screening of Sharknado at 200 theaters.
 
Social media helped make the film into an instant classic when it premiered on Syfy on July 11, 2013, and the network’s already working on a Sharknado sequel.
 
Sharknado was an instant hit with fans – and celebrities – from the moment they first saw it, creating a social media phenomenon on July 11 with nearly 400,000 social mentions,” stated Shelly Maxwell, executive vice president for NCM Fathom Events. “Imagine sharks invading from the skies on 40-foot screens in movie theaters nationwide.”
 
The midnight screenings will take place on Friday, August 2nd at 12:05am local time. For tickets and a list of participating theaters, visit www.FathomEvents.com.
 
The Plot:
 
Sharknado is the story of beachside bar regulars including owner Fin (Ian Ziering), bartender Nova (Casie Scerbo) and local drunk George (John Heard) as they team up with Fin’s ex-wife April (Tara Reid) to investigate the ecological nightmare that has sharks swimming through the streets of Los Angeles and falling from the skies.
