Here at Marvelous Videos, we adore shark-themed horror films. We aren’t the only ones, though. Stephen King, the best-selling author and proven national treasure, appears to have a sweet spot for shark-themed horror as well. He made his offer on Twitter earlier today:
He stated that he could definitely use another SHARKNADO movie. He says that SHARKNADO: THE VATICAN comes to mind. Or, to keep the religious theme going, SHARKNADO EXORCISM.
We have to wonder if King’s desire to combine shark-horror and religious-horror clichés has anything to do with the Noah’s Shark trailer that we released earlier this week. Or perhaps someone reminded him of Shark Exorcist, which was released in 2015. Below are the trailers and synopses for both films.
I could use another SHARKNADO movie.
i’m thinking SHARKNADO: THE VATICAN
Or, continuing the religious subtext: SHARKNADO EXORCISM.— Stephen King (@StephenKing) August 14, 2021
