Syfy

Fin's cousin Gemini is out on the ocean with a convenient consignment of nuclear waste barrels when the sharknado strikes, causing the barrels to wreck the boat and send said barrels flying into the sharknado, creating a nuclear-powered sharknado that's later hilariously described as a "Sharkzilla".

The Sharkzilla first appears on the coast of Okinawa, Japan and makes short work of a honeymooning couple, before invading the Japanese mainland and raising all sorts of Hell in Tokyo, in a manner very much like a classic Toho monster movie (Sharkzilla, indeed).

Each successive Sharknado movie gleefully attempts to one-up the previous movie's absurd new variations of sharknado, and this was surely one of the best yet.
