Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia(at around 5 mins) Robert Hays played a pilot in the beginning and said he has "been through worse" flying through a storm. This was a reference to him flying in Airplane! (1980) and Airplane II: The Sequel (1982).
- Goofs(at around 15 mins) It is only reported that there are only several injuries from the plane crash in the beginning when due to the loss of the pilots and the loss of part of the fuselage wall there were also at least four fatalities.
- Quotes
Fin Shepard: I know you're scared. I'm scared too. They're sharks. They're scary. No one wants to get eaten. But I've been eaten. And I'm here to tell you it takes a lot more than to bring a good man down. A lot more that to bring a New Yorker down.

Fin Shepard: Let's go show them what it means to be a hero. Let's go show them what it means to be a New Yorker! Let's go kill some sharks!
- Crazy creditsThere is a small scene after the credits where Robert Hays' character says to Fin "Good luck we are all counting on you" in reference to one of the most famous lines from "Airplane!" (1980) in which Hays had the lead role.
- Alternate versionsA slightly extended cut of the film can be found on the DVD and Blu-ray releases of the film.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for horror flicks that don't take themselves seriously. Piranha, for example. Or the Feast trilogy. Stupid, yet entertaining. Sharknado 2 is just plain stupid, as is the original.
Life is too short to waste on trash like this.
