Godtopus's Angry Cousin HIts Town

It’s Friday and if you’re like me you couldn’t get to that midnight showing of Inception, so you’re sitting around twiddling your…

thumbs…and you need a distraction until the day passes by and you can plop your ass in a noisy, dirty, overcrowded, overexcited theater to watch your own mind get frakked. What to do, what to do? I’ll tell you what to do — watch this trailer again and again and again. Godtopus’s chromosomally damaged angry cousin is in town and he’s pissed. While I can’t condone the music, I can certainly give a big tentacle (or two) up for this AWESOME trailer. (Yes, I said awesome, against all reason and I have no explanation whatsoever.)

It seems the Navy tracked down Eric Roberts to create a killing machine and what else would come to his mind but a vicious hybrid of shark and octopus? A creature that doesn’t even need to wait for the victim to hit the water - it can drag a victim from the beach. Sharktopus jumps, he snares with his tentacles and shreds with his teeth…he growls! I love him. And here he is in all his angry, growling glory, Sharktopus!

Thank you Roger Corman.

I knew bungee jumping was a bad idea.

Did Eric Roberts just say, "Ass 11 is now totally under our control," while watching that swimmer's ass?

This movie is guaranteed to cure incontinence faster than a double bowl of Kellogg's Kraakelin' Oat Bran.

This looks like camp in the very best sense of the word. Excuse me, please - I need to go arrange a drinking game and a group of friends to watch this with - STAT!

I have nothing to add, just thought this comment needed to be emphasized.

I WANT that mockette.

I agree. Sharktopus is actually kind of a badass creature concept.

Movies like this demonstrate why the "SyFy" spelling is totally fitting.

Skin? Check!
Bad CGI? Check!
C-list actor(s)? Check!

Greenlight the motherfucker!

Ladies and gentlemen, Roger Corman has just presented the Pajiba pantheon with its Satan: Sharktopus.

Hear the growl and live in fear.

Greatness always comes at a price.

Oh my god this movie looks fantastic.

I hope that song plays throughout the entirety of the movie.

If only it was in 3D.

Holy shit they've finally given up. I kept waiting to see Frankie Avalon and Annete Funicello pop up on the beach blankets. It seems so horrible that I must check the listings.

SyFy stop playing coy with the air date. We need to know. I have a party to arrange around this movie!!!

No no no Jarce, Pajiba Pantheon Satan is Squiatan, the Uzi-tooting, Michael Bay Loving, Team Edward Satan Squid with metal wings!! (That's right, I'm gonna peddle this thing till it stics, with its 10 tentacles!!!)

Sharktopus is more like the anti-christ of the pantheon.

Posted by: yocean at July 17, 2010 9:38 PM

I love that its tentacles can be used to impale - and the weird ring of spikes around the middle. Because the shark with octopus tentacles just isn't badass enough, obviously.

This is all just really sad.

How did you know it was my birthday? This is just about the best birthday present any blogger has ever given me.... Swoon!

Agreed, very well written and can't wait for the second half.
