Sharknado 2: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Enjoy the Stupidity

There are two kinds of horror fans in this world; those who can turn off their brains long enough to enjoy Syfy original movies, and those who refuse to back down on their stance that they’re the bane of the horror genre. Never has this been clearer to me than last night, which of course
