Pic looks like it could be a hand puppet... will they take that route?? XD

That's just one artist's rendition. If you Google "sharktopus," you'll find a few others.

And now, an update...

The world has been buzzing ever since news broke that Roger Corman and Syfy were colluding to gift the world with a motion picture entitled Sharktopus. How does such an unlikely mutant come about?

"The U.S. Navy has commissioned a group called Blue Water to genetically engineer a half-shark, half-octopus to help combat Somali pirate ships. Then things go wrong."

Makes perfect sense, doesn't it? That's the point, as Corman explains.

"It's fairly difficult to believe, but we only ask the audience to accept this one thing," he said. "After that, we take great care that everything else is logical from then on and is something that could happen."

Gods bless Roger Corman.
