Watch It: Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus

What do Teen Sensation Debbie Gibson, Renegade heartthrob Lorenzo Lamas, and Stanford Engineer Vic Chao (aka "Handsome Asian Man" in Special Unit 2) in have in common? They starred in sci-fi meltdown Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus.



Genius like this deserves a crowd viewing.

So I got together some sushi platters...



...themed beer...


...asian-based seafood snacks...


...the appropriate attire...


...willing victims...


...and special guest stars Pete Richards (aka Vic Chao's college dorm mate) and myself (aka girl who lived in the same town as Lorenzo Lamas' kid AJ, current star of reality TV show Living with Lamas).

(Pete with his family. Son Selim is not too impressed with Lamas' dramatic scene)

Everyone picked either Team Octopus or Team Shark to survive the ordeal. We were almost evenly split at 5 to 6 (with Selim remaining neutral).

There was debate as to whether the shark or the octopus constituted the "underdog" and I won't ruin the surprise as to tell you which side won. Because I think we know when Debbie Gibson and Lorenzo Lamas star in a movie, everyone's a winner.

I say the Octopi won, for they know how to use a coconut shell to hide, plus they can hug you to death. (Forgot to mention, they have brains too.) While a primitive shark is strictly a switchblade Westside Story water-gang type; carve you up with razorblade teeth or swim for the hills, with an 8-legged sheriff in hot pursuit! Okay, which of these cowboys won?
