Regal Cinemas will host midnight showings of the greatest film of ALL TIME, Sharknado. Well, that might be exaggerating a bit but they ARE opening the made-for-TV movie on 200+ cinemas across the US next Friday, August 2, only. “If the internet reactions to this film are any indication, then our moviegoers are primed and ready to enjoy Sharknado larger than life in cinemas,” says a spokesperson for Regal. Only 1.4 million people watched the movie when it aired — giving it a smaller audience than previous Syfy schlockfests like 2010′s Sharktopus (2.5 million viewers), 2011′s Mega Python vs Gatoroid (2.4 million), and last year’s Piranhaconda (1.8 million). It may not be the next Rocky Horror Picture Show, but seeing it with a sassy, rowdy crowd is sure to be a LOT more fun than watching it alone on the small screen, even if those super-crappy effects will look more South Park than Avatar on the big screen.
