Sharknado 4 Trailer

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Sharknado is officially back.

Not that it ever really left, though; with the most baffling cinematic franchise in existence perpetually thundering onwards like a runaway train. Filled with sharks. Whatever metaphor you can attach to this film, it automatically must be filled with sharks.

And with the arrival of the first trailer for its fourth installment, it looks like the Sharknado franchise is actually starting to lean towards the Scary Movie realm of movie parodies.

First off, we've got the full title. Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens, which would almost be a clever joke if there weren't already an annual fan celebration based on that same pun.

Then we've got the distinctly Magic Mike-looking male stripper seen fending off a shark the only way he knows how; by crotch-slamming it into oblivion. Never stop doing you, Sharknado.

Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens stars Tara Reid, Ian Ziering, Gary Busey, David Hasselhoff, Stacey Dash, and Vince Neil; debuting in the US on Syfy 31 July, 8/7c.
