Less than a week after Sharknado debuted on the SyFy network and created a sea of buzz on Twitter, the company officially announced a sequel is in the works for 2014. And this time, the cable channel is looking to the quick wit users on Twitter to fish out a campy tagline for the movie.

“Enough said” was the punchy tagline for the original Sharknado, the cable disaster flick about a freak tornado which triggers scores of man-eating fish to rain down on the residents of Los Angeles. Flying sharks invade New York City will be the follow-up.

To participate, fans can tweet their suggestions to @SyfyMovies using #Sharknado, and Syfy will select the best submission. The sequel will also be produced by Los Angeles-based studio The Asylum. According to the New York Post, it will be set in New York City.

Syfy’s executive vice president of programming and original movies, Thomas Vitale seems to be taking initiative to further bridge the gap between online engagement and TV viewership with this new social initiative. It remains to be seen whether social media buzz translates into actual ratings, but if SyFy can get its online audience to actively participate in something as sexy as naming the next thriller, the chances of users tuning in can only increase.

“Every once in a while, there is a perfect storm — on television. The fans are clamoring for a sequel. Or perhaps it will be a prequel,” said Syfy’s executive vice president of programming and original movies, Thomas Vitale, in a statement. “What we can guarantee is that Sharknado 2 will be lots of fun.”

Here are some promising propositions from the Twittersphere:

 

The Syfy announcement is accompanied by the network’s trailer release for Ghost Shark, a plot where a dead shark seeks revenge on the entire human race.

The backstory: “When Ava’s father is brutally murdered, no one believes that the ghost shark got him — except the crazy lighthouse keeper Finch.”

If you doubted it could get any better than that, know that the leading role of Ava is played by an all-grown-up, bikini-wearing Mackenzie Rosman, who starred as Ruthie Camden in 7th Heaven.

Ghost Shark premieres August 22. Watch the awful trailer below:
