The initial tableaux:
Aston Reynolds has made a fortune building installations that prevent the formation of sharknados. Five years have gone by since Sharknado 3, and a new series of variations on sharknado form. Fin's father, the Colonel, has been rescued from the Moon, and Fin's wife, April, has been revived and rebuilt as a cyborg.
Delineation of conflicts:
The sharks are hungry and are coming in several shapes and forms in several locations about the connected United States. The majority of humans have no defense whatsoever against this. Fin and his family attempt to fend off the sharks and help Aston stop the sharknado formation.
Resolution: Seriously? If they can bring back April, they can do whatever they want for future Sharknado films. The precedent has been set. Nothing is ever finished here.
One line summary: Fin Shepard and family fight sharknados again.
Statistics:
Cinematography: 4/10 Natural photography without shaky cams: rather nice. SFX: beyond cheesy, beyond rotten, just terrible, and there was a lot of it.
Sound: 5/10 OK, but nothing to brag about.
Acting: (-2)/10 There was no acting, except perhaps by Al Roker. Gary Busey looked like he needed life support for this one.
Screenplay: (-1)/10 Hacksaws were the artistic motif. Illogic reigned over everything. This was one continuous downpour of bullshit.
Final Rating: 0/10 The Asylum at its worst, perhaps redefining the limits of bad.
