    This is the take that Asylum Films takes. (the studio behind 'Sharknado') Their business model is: Whatever big block buster film is in theaters, they make the cheapest, low budget, knockoff that they can [1] (e.g. "Planet Dune", "Top Gunner", "Ape-Monster vs. Giant-Lizard", etc...)

    "our films tend to be shitty mostly you know not to be taken too seriously a lot of people talk about wanting to watch quality cinema but we found that most people ourselves included usually just want to come home from a hard day of work you watch it you have a good time you never have to think about it again the technical term in the entertainment industry is actually called a drafting title I mean if you go into your pharmacy you'll see the brand-name decongestant and you'll see the stores version which looks exactly like it but it just calls it decongestant that's - a mock buster" [0]
