Keep an eye on the skies this August — and another on the surf report. The fifth installment of Syfy’s campy “Sharknado” now has a debut date.
The summer TV movie will premiere on Sunday, Aug. 6 at 8/7c on the NBCUniversal cable channel, Syfy revealed on Friday.
Here’s the official synopsis for “Sharknado 5,” which at this point is just a working title:
The pop culture phenomenon “Sharknado” blows into town this summer… and this time, the shark-infested storms pick up wind as the world braces for the inevitable – a global shark takeover. Will our chainsaw-wielding hero Fin Shepard (Ian Ziering) and partner in crime April Wexler (Tara Reid) save the world from this jaw snapping-nado…again?
And here are some other new premiere dates and descriptions, all in Syfy’s own words:
“Blood Drive” – Series premieres Wednesday, June 14 at 10/9c
Get uncomfortable…! In the tradition of classic grindhouse movies, “Blood Drive” is a new series soaked in high-octane chaos and just barely approved for television.
