Why God created straight-to-DVD

Someone in the office messaged me with a link to this preview trailer for Mega Shark vs.Giant Octopus, deeming it "the most ludicrous thing ever on film."

Close, but not quite. This Butterball turkey, even with the tantalizing casting of Lorenzo Lamas and Deborah "Debbie" Gibson, is heading straight to home video next on May 19. I'm surprised they're not bringing back Beta for this one. Enjoy.
