Roger Corman and the Syfy Channel concoct a Sharktopus

Just typing the title of the new film from the ‘King of the B’s’ had me chuckling. The trailer is just as funny, but in a good, cheesy kind of way. There is no air date yet for the Declan O’Brien [Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead] directed flick.

“Regarding ‘Sharktopus,’ Corman said that the story will have to explain how such a creature came to be since it has never really existed. The solution? The US Navy has commissioned a group called Blue Water to genetically engineer a half-shark, half-octopus to help combat Somali pirate ships. Then things go wrong.”
