Two protagonists that are just normal people? A woman who helps without overshadowing the others, or being seen as a TnA attraction (despite spending a portion of the movie without pants)? Side characters that are quirky, realistic, and human, not punchlines or political movements? A monster that is imposing, threatening, and intelligent without being sentient (like a real life animal)? I love this damn movie.
And realistic diversity for the region. It literally could be a bunch of people from from any small town in the SW US, from California to Texas. It's also somewhat timeless, as outside a few subtle geopolitical references and vehicles it could take place anywhere from the 70s to the early 00s.
It's a movie I've watched multiple times and still remember, even if it's been years since I last watched it. At first glance Tremors looks like a very simple fun flick of the turn-off-your-brain-and enjoy-the-sillyness type, but it doesn't take very long until you realise that's it's actually very carefully set up, a lot of thought has been given to each detail and it therefore has surprising depth. If you take away the obvious silly monsters, you're totally willing to believe that this could actually be some random small town in the middle of a scarcely populated area in the US, populated by believably every day people, because like you said they actually behave like real people. Even the survivalists aren't the stereotypical over-the-top gunslinging anti-government NRA worshippers modern day movies love to show, but people who are simply, if in a very tongue-in-cheek way, overly prepared to deal with anything that might come at them.
It'll be pretty difficult to ignore such cogent and intelligent thoughts on how to handle characters (and characterization, like Burt's gun collection and his contributions and lack of stupid death mid-rant, and how Rhonda complements not undermines) when coming out of this morass of woke crap to make good movies again.... Actually it'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience for Hollywood to not even bother.
I hope they don't take notes. They are so stupid nowadays that after watching this video their conclusion would be: we need a tremors sequel where a white scientist makes the monsters, and a lesbian black strong woman single handedly kills them with no effort.
I liked the fact that Rhonda isn't a can-do-anything-science-related scientist that you see in so many movies (cough cough Tony Stark). She's a specialist in a field and doesn't know everything about everything, just like real scientists. She straight up says "Why do you keep asking me?" She isn't a magical movie scientist that has a PhD in seismology but knows everything about Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Medicine, Astronomy, Quantum mechanics, Engineering and every other field imaginable.
Absolutely Mr Mc Gyver! Another great fact about this awesome movie is it's lack of *Mary Sue* characters, it has a few *SPECIALISTS* , and two "Everyman Handymen" who work all as teams as much as they can, despite there being nary a "Closet Trained Assassin/Demolistionist/Alien Biologist" et al in the bunch!, almost inconceivable as mary said to god!
As Val , Earl and the rest of the townsfolk listened as the shots echoed across the valley I was truly hoping Burt and his Wife would survive and when they did that's when Burt's character totally won me over. Yes that was an awesome scene.
The escalation of that scene is amazing, from the tension building of them trying to warn them on the radio, Burts cut off "Jesus Chri-!", would have been a good horror film kill scene on it's own, like with the doctor and his wife earlier, and is expected that the smug asshole Burt has kind of been thus far would meet his fate here. But nope, it turns into the point in the movie where the characters realize it's possible to beat these monsters.
Great scene indeed and also one of my favourites. What I also like is that the actor playing Bert, Micheal Gross, plays a complete opposite of his character in Family Ties who is a full on pacifist.
It’s beautifully done. The sounds of panic, broken off suddenly, on the CB radio. Val and Earl, and the rest on the rooftop, physically sinking in disappointment that their compadres have been finished off too... Then bodily those stranded on the roof rise slowly, at the sounds of gunfire popping off, far away, while the camera lingers on the seeming quiet of Burt and Heather’s house, above ground, in the distance... Before we’re taken into the action going down in their recc room. (and that zoom out to the 500 Nitro Express elephant gun in the glass case is masterful!) It’s been many years since I’ve seen the flick but the fact I can recall it so easily shot-by-shot is what great movies are made of.
The best response by a guy with a large gun collection when someone asks him, "why does one person need all those guns?": "Have you never seen Tremors??"
Except in Canada I can’t store them loaded like that. I don’t think that the graboid would wait for me to unlock the gun, unlock then ammo, then load the gun.
Tremors is one of the few horror franchises with no truly awful sequels, the second one was a great sequel, even though it didnt had Kevin Bacon. The third one is kinda bad but has some redeemable moments, the fourth one is an actually great prequel that sheds some light into not just the Gravoids, but also the characters of the first movie whitow getting too much into it and the fifth one may be a generic sequel done to keep the rights of the franchise, but is decent enough to enjoy in a lazy Saturday afternoon when you want to watch a dumb movie that requires only two of your brain cells to enjoy.
I still think Tremors is the most perfect film ever made. Also, the sound design is really under appreciated. Stuff like boots clicking on porches is boosted, not absurdly so, but just enough that you subconsciously realize it's there.
@JZ's BFF Lake Placid is sooooo good! God bless Betty White; I miss her - what a talent. She really made the movie in my opinion. No one could deliver the lines she did with such aplomb and deadly seriousness!
I like the fact that this movie celebrates the strength of the small town. When faced with an existential threat, they all team up and become a united force using their abilities for the good of the community. Val is brave. Earl is pragmatic. Rhonda is smart. Burt and Heather are prepared and resourceful. It’s one of those films you don’t see often that actually shows “fly over country” in a positive light. It’s not dim witted hicks but capable people who will defend their community when facing insurmountable odds.
There was some other guy who made a video highlighting this point but he kept making all these retarded points about the film being racist for killing the only chinese character, so kind of undermined his own message. That said, you’re absolutely right
Local victories are important, looking around your town or city and even state can help secure this country. The news makes us focus on the massive federal government which we can't effect directly. But we can by working with our community to keep our fredoms right where they belong, written into the law.
Cannons are antiques and not subject to firearm regs, you just need to register your cannon balls with the ATF. If you have the money, you're golden. A family friend of mine owns a replica of a 4 Pounder, the kind that was used during the US Revolutionary War. He'd take it out the the middle of nowhere next to a sheered dirt embankment and fire it at an abandoned car that was dumped there. Why would we do this? America. :D
What made Burt an especially cool character is that he's played by Michael Gross, the soft spoken perfect dad from Family Ties. Seeing HIM of all people as a trigger happy gun-nut was beyond surreal.
At some point he commented on how a Yale (I think) acting degree gave him a career where he says 'assgrabbers' with a straight face, or something similar to that
This movie breaks so many horror movie tropes today, characters aren't dumb, unique idea, monster feels realistic like an animal, jumpscares are limited and not in your face, guns fucking work against the monster in this movie. Can I just say how much I love that one of them just plops into the room and gets blasted to shit XD. That would never happen in a horror movie today, it feels like the directors intentionally avoid those scenes too. It feels like a realistic take on how this shit would happen in real life and I love it.
If Tremors was made today the monster would be pure CGI from the Thirty Cents Or Less Bargain Bin of CGI. The characters would be personality clones of each other. It would be so bland as not to be offensive yet not so good that you would buy a copy from the Almost Free Movie Bargain Bin. As for the guns... chances are they too would be CGI. Their sound effects? Only the very best of what using a rubber band against a drum can offer. The Hollywood studio that would produce this hysterically godawful Tremors movie would say it massively overran budget by twenty four cents. It would never get any sequels since it would only make maybe four cents at the Box Office.
@@adamgray1753 unfortunately they are making more Tremors movies today. The monsters are indeed cgi and look like crap and are heavily overdesigned. I know it's mostly my nostalgia talking but I don't like the new ones. Bought all the originals and the series though and love them.
@@serpentinious7745 No, you're on the money. Nostalgia ain't got nothing to do with the new ones reception. The 2nd Tremors is an acceptable sequel and should have stopped there. It's mostly for the die hard fans to see what bullshit checklist of what's Bert gonna do this time ever since.
If the movie were remade today, the two co-leads would be female, possibly lesbian, one would be black, one will be supposedly funny but not really, and with little to no training they would physically beat some huge male body guards' asses who were working for a white male who was himself trying to attract the worms to clear out small landholders so he could build a pipeline and reestablish the Patriarchy and also be disrespectful toward Native Americans, who it turns out are very spiritual and tell the two lead actresses, Yup, it's the same thing they did to us, let's battle the white patriarchy together! And for some reason there will be a cute kid and an old N.A. medicine man with cataracts who can do prophesies or something, and somebody might get a very spiritual tattoo and the Patriarchy loses and is shamed by 56 pronouns coming together in a diversity hire cheer for social justice and the power of unity except for white males who both literally and with phallic symbolism get eaten by their own worms.
They can't think of good monsters/villains nowadays, so they have to make the main characters dumb and incompetent too so there is still at least some challenge...
I remember hearing how this is used as an example in film courses as the “perfect” film. In the sense that every scene moves the plot forward, everything mentioned is relevant and pays off later, people act reasonably etc. Quite a lot you’ve touched on here too is the reason it’s used.
Yep...and the only other movie i noticed this in was Firefly's "Serenity" movie. There is not one wasted word in that movie and everything is relevant to another.
Comparing the film to Jaws is funny because in French, we made the titles similar. Jaws' title in french is "Les dents de la mer" (Sea's fangs), and Tremor got translated into "Les dents de la terre" (Ground's fangs).
No such thoughtfull nonsense over here in germany. We like to call our films descriptive. So "Jaws" became "Der weisse Hai" ("The white shark", doo), and "Tremors" got pimped to "Tremors - Im Land der Raketenwürmer ("Tremors - In the land of the rocket worms") :D
@@borednapoleon5296 as a lifelong monster movie fan, I will never allow my joy of watching giant monster fight on the big screen to be dampened by anyone’s opinion-no matter how high I regard them.
@@DixonAsses I agree. I love the drinker's reviews btw. But just noticed when he gave his review about godzilla his followers weren't too happy lol. It was kind of funny 😹.
I always said if I ever got married, she would have to appreciate the humor in three films: The 3 Amigos, Mars Attacks, and Tremors. Finally found her, we've been married 12 years now. Thank you, Tremors, thank you.
Tremors is that movie that you see coming on TV at 11:45 at night when you have to be up at 5 AM to catch a flight to Chicago, and you just say, “screw it, I’m watching it, I’ll sleep on the plane.”
Hell it was on TV in the UK at 1pm not long after this video was first posted. Slightly edited for that time of day, of course. One scene I remember being trimmed was when they pull the hat off the hole and uncover the face, it was just those 5 seconds cut out. They even kept in the odd "shit!" cuss.
Agreed. Tight screenwriting and a master class in chemistry between Val and Earl. And criminally underrated humor. Like Bert admitting that he has a cannon without any sort of embarrassment.
Hell the initial cooler discussion was a payoff to their earlier discussion about planning ahead, that has even more payoffs and setups throughout the rest of the film, including the climax.
I remember in the 90's I used to be pretty impressed with bad cgi... nowadays I see these practical effects and giant puppets and I think this is the way to go most of the times.
I miss models and anamatronics it was an artform onto itself and tho cgi was revolutionary in cinima theres somthing about puppets and anamatronics that cgi cannot replicate
That's because it's all real, CGI will always look like crap to me because it always looks so fake, you can tell it's not real no matter how detailed it is.
Saw this at the movies kind of by accident (the movie we wanted to see was sold out) and have absolutely loved it ever since. I can't say how many times I've watched it. It's one of those movies that, if you're channel surfing and you come across it you're in for the rest of the movie, if it just started or it there's only ten minutes left. And the characters are all perfect. Bacon and Ward play off each other perfectly. Ward; "is this any kind of work for an intelligent man?" Bacon; "I don't know, show me one and I'll ask him." And Finn Carter as the grad student was brainy, funny, and pretty hot all at the same time. All without having to prove that she was smarter than the men...even though she pretty much was. She's one of my all time favorite female characters. Michael Gross and Reba McIntyre also played perfectly off of one another and nailed their characters. I never get tired of watching Tremors, if you haven't seen it first WHY? Second, it's the perfect movie night popcorn movie, you'll be happy you finally saw it and will immediately be thinking about watching it again. I actually envy you the experience of seeing it for the first time.
i saw it a couple nights ago in theater. it had been awhile since i had seen it, i'd like to say i'd forgotten how good it really was,but to honest when it came out, i think it was pretty average. but looking at the movie again, with the shit stained glasses of 2021 on, after all the terrible shit hollywood pushed out in the last 10-15 years, its easy to see why this movie is these days so great. its smartly written, the characters are well developed. the side characters are likable, relatable, and realistic. nearly every character contributes to this movie. and the director spends time with the side character so that you get to know them and see what they are made of. and you just don't get that anymore. even from movies of today that are "good" most of them when i compare them to something from the 80s or early mid 90s, or to classics from even more bygone eras they just don't hold up in comparison.
This is true. When I was in 4th grade we had a sleepover with about 10 kids. After watching this movie, I convinced them that this was a true story. I made two kids cry, no one slept on the floor that night. I swear.
Haha. Thats nice of you. As a kid I often took a walk through the forest. And after watching this film I was really scared of walking on sand. So I tried to stay on a hard surface ...
You know that you've made it as a gun nut when your friends always send you Burt Gummer memes all the time, and make references to him when talking about you.
One of my favorite things about Tremors was how the characters actually think about where these things came from and how they've never been seen before for a few minutes before they're just like "I have no fuckin clue" and thats just good enough haha. I love it. That kinda stuff would never pass these days but that's actual reality. Sometimes things happen and we have no fuckin idea how or why and there's nobody there to explain it to us. Are you going to dwell on it or move on to dealing with it? It's a fantastic addition to the story
I am shocked to learn that this movie didn't do well at the box office. I was only 9 when this came out and I watched it almost as obsessively as Predator. Even to this day it remains one of my favorite creature features along with the likes of The Thing and Alien. If you haven't seen this movie yet, take the drinkers advice and enjoy. :)
I see you're a man of good taste as well. Nobody I know has seen or heard of Predator. It's my favorite movie of all time. the thing, tremors, alien all in my top 10 too. Glad there's other people out there who know what an actual good movie is.
@@slimdangerous1928 Ha. The only reason why most of my friends know about these movies is because of me. It's beyond frustrating all the crap that gets center stage while the best of the best are so easily forgotten.
No one knew what to make of it at the time. It was too multi genre for a studio to know how to sell it. What also helped its cult status was that it was about the perfect length for cable channels to kill 2 hours on a weekend. There are many mid 80's- mid 90's that acquired fan bases largely due to cable tv needing plug and play filler.
The script had some really smart lines. A personal favorite of mine: Earl: We gotta come up with a plan. Val: Why don't we just run for it? We outran it yesterday. Earl: Run for it?! Running's not a plan, Valentine. No, running is what you do when a plan fails.
My favorite line: "Food for five years, a thousand gallons of gas, air filtration, water filtration, Geiger counter. Bomb shelter! ...Underground God damn monsters."
The scene where they pole-vault between the boulders is pure gold with younger viewers because it reenforces the idea that playing "the floor is lava" is a skill that just might save your life one day. I recently introduced this movie to my young kids and that scene had them jumping with excitement and cheering for the movie.
Don't forget that Michael Gross was famous at time as the Hippy Dad on Family Ties, so this role was a huge departure. Gutsy move, and he was great in it.
Melvin calls him a "right-wing psycho" and a "shit-kicker" in the third one. He's not "right-wing," though. Not in the European sense, that is. There's one part in the third one where he uses the term "Ass-Blaster blitzkrieg in a pejorative sense, which he wouldn't have done if he was a fascist. If anything, he's a lot like Robert Heinlein, philosophically speaking - a pure "wingless" civic nationalist embodying the Greek ideal of the hoplite (citizen soldier) - except that his adversary is a species of monsters instead of an imperialist invader. Still, his techniques aren't too far removed from Red Dawn-style guerrilla warfare.
@@TrapperBV Yeah. It never sat well with me how they wrote her out. I realize she probably got too expensive, but I would like to have seen her show back up.
@@richardmorris8902 I agree to a point. I’d have loved to see her be by Berts side and keep blasting them away, but it actually worked for her to leave for Bert to get him back in the saddle the way he did. I don’t think there’d be the same Bert if he was married the whole time. Just my opinion tho 🤷🏻♂️
My Dad, a Vietnam War Veteran and certified curmudgeon who passed away in 2015 regarded this as his favorite movie of all time. He even liked the sequels. We watch the original as a family every year. Laugh. Cry. Tell stories. Isn't that what moviemaking was supposed to be about?
_Ronda_ No damsel in distress. No heroic Mary Sue. And they even held the love interest thing at a tolerably low level. She's just an equally important part of the team.
Exactly! And Burt’s wife Heather was a cool badass, Miguel was intregal, and Chang was a shrewd businessman. No bullshit identity politics or pandering or forced representation. Just a good movie with good characters way back in 1990.

Edit: Almost forgot the ridiculous action with terrible CGI, 'cause it was all shot in front of a green screen.
I love this movie. When I was younger we would rent the VHS copy every weekend I think my family was the only people to ever rent it from the video store and it will always have a special place in my heart.
I remember seeing this on tv when I was a teenager and loved it. I watched it with my teenage children and they loved it. Tremors has aged really well.
Not sure why, but my father and I ended up watching this movie a TON of times over the years. We would just happen to catch it on TV all the time. We loved it. It kicks the dog shit out of the insufferable drivel that passes for movies now days. So refreshing. Not a single big of messaging, statements, or agenda.
If Tremors was made today, then Burt Gummer would've either been one of the first to die (and in a particularly gruesome fashion) or would've turned into a secondary villain that the heroes had to overcome. Can't have a "gun nut" doomsday prepper portrayed as a resourceful, competent, and courageous hero in current year, after all.
The only tremors movie where burt is not burt is the 4th where he is a sheltered rich dude who can't do anything and becomes burt by the end. Spoilers Even in the mostly bad tremors 7 (2020) he is still burt right up to his death, though he is an old man he is still burt gummer and still the hero.
Tremors is one of those movies that won't make it on most people's top ten lists, but is so purely entertaining that no matter how many times you watch it you'll always have a fun time. It's one of those movies that you stop on while flipping through the channels looking for something to watch, and then just end up watching it, even though you just watched it last week.
@@AndyG73 That's the one thing I miss now that I've cut the cable cord, surfing the channels and watching one of those "comfort" movies that were played all the time.
I adore this movie. One of my favourites. Drinker’s analysis is 100% on the money. If you haven’t seen it, watch it as soon as you can. If you have, watch it again for old times’ sake. Nice one Drinker you small town handyman!
The chemistry between Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward is what makes this movie, it's very funny and entertaining, the script is flawless and the pacing is brilliant, it just does everything right, I never get bored of it, no matter how many times I've seen it, definitely a cult classic.
It’s an aside but despite getting a hoity-toity education, as a kid, I’d literally contrive any means I could to linger at the garage where my dad used to get his old motor fixed. Just to listen to the banter that the dozen or so guys working there would engage in every day. Working Class people who pay their bills doing thankless, mucky jobs sustain themselves with a humour that makes the experience a pleasure. The script and performances of Bacon and Ward capture this reality better than any movie ever has.
This movie has a special place in my heart. When I was a kid, i used to be very afraid of any type of horror movies and games. I used to lack sleep because of the constant nightmares I'd get, when I see a snippet of a commercial, game or movie that contains horror elements. My nanny helped me out by introducing this movie to me, we would watch it together and laugh at it. Little by little she would help me grow resistance through it and eventually the nightmares stopped when I grew older I'll miss you Ms. Neng
I was the same way. I think the Muppets on Sesame Street, and Maurice Sendak's book, Where the Wild Things Are, helped a lot of kids tremendously with this sort of thing by making monsters disarmingly ordinary, or even friendly and funny.
I liked that it was a monster/horror/comedy filmed in very bright daylight. No hiding imperfections in the shadows, everything is on display & in focus.
Not only is this a cult classic, it contains one of the most important bits of life advice I’ve ever come across. For years, any time someone in my family got their panties in a twist, they would hear, “let it go Burt” in Reba’s thick southern drawl.
Reba succeeded as a quality actress in a movie which shouldn't have 'afforded' her that dignity. Meanwhile so many celebrities from various occupations attempt the same with bigger budgets and fail spectacularly.
This was one of my favorite movies growing up and the Drinkers review makes me appreciate it that much more especially in the world we live in today. This movie truly has no business being as good as it is.
Van and Earl were my inspiration for the relationship between Steven and Keen in my comic. Steven being Val, reckless and young, while Keen being Earl tries to keep him from hurting himself, his family, or their team.
I love the 1st Tremors. The 2nd one is interesting and goes a little further. The 3rd one is really silly, but I can't say I didn't enjoy it. Tremors 4 was the movie I never knew I wanted. And I enjoyed a cowboy flick with Tremors in a formula more like the original. The others I got a sniff of and decided that they were not for me.
@@als3022 Even Bloodlines, Cold Day in Hell, and Shrieker Island were decent. They strayed really far toward the end, but they all had their niche. Bloodlines, I'd even put up against 2 (easily beats 3 I'd say) for overall best. I'm kind of upset the original crew never did one more. Tremors really was, and in many ways still is, an underappreciated classic.
Same, but I found the station wagon scene so claustrophobically horrifying. Just imagining that right now still makes me a little uncomfortable. It is perfect.
Just watched it again last night. A happy coincidence to see the Drinker review it. I'm every bit as happy to see him review old movies as new ones, and I'm happy that so far, every old movie he likes could be on my favorites list...if I had one.
The way Burt said "My cannon" with a bit of confusion and annoyance expanded the answer in my mind to, "My cannon. What the hell else would I use it for?"
@@garygrant91 Burt’s so immersed in his world of guns and general firepower, that he’s lost sight of the fact that his obsession isn’t normal. Haha I like that even though the audience has seen loads of his firepower in his basement, we don’t get to see a cannon... so the line reveals he’s even more obsessed with military firepower than we thought.... and we already thought he was fanatical! Haha
And the lead-up is so great. Watching the graboids heading for the house, desperately trying to warn them on the radio, and losing them after Burt sees it and screams, “God Almighty!” Then gunfire. Lots and lots of gunfire.
This film is the sh*t! Pardon my French! Val: Roger that Burt, and congratulations. Be advised, however, that there are two more, repeat, two more motherhumpers. or Earl: What kind of fuse is that? Burt: Cannon fuse. Earl: What the hell do you use it for? Burt: My cannon! or Earl: Damn it Valentine, you never plan ahead, you never take the long view, I mean here it is Monday and I'm already thinking of Wednesday... It is Monday right? or Earl: They must be long gone by now. Val: Yeah. Hey, why don't you go take a little stroll and find out? or Earl: We gotta run. We've got a schedule to keep. Val: Yeah. See, we plan ahead, that way we don't do anything right now. Earl explained it to me.
haha! as a kid growing up in the early 90's the scene of Burt and heather fighting off the first graboid was and still is my favorite scene ever! the look on Vals face then the distant sound of gun fire still resonates with me!
YES YES YES. Fred Ward had a great scene with Veronica Cartwright as Gus & Betty Grissom in The Right Stuff. Fred really deserves more recognition for his career than he's gotten.
I couldn't even guess how many times I've seen it. Was in heavy competition in my childhood with Jurassic Park and Lost World for what am I gonna watch tonight when I get home from school.
My dad had this on the television when I was 6 during the doctor and his wife car scene. I had nightmares for weeks, my mom was livid with my dad. Now 30 years later, it's one of my favorite movies.
@@dave-ish8098 2 is actually pretty good. It’s about as good as a sequel can be without pulling a dark knight or empire strikes back. 3 and 4 were decent as well tbh.
As a kid this movie was the SH!T!! I used to pretend the tremor monsters were real and jump around on my grandma's furniture to avoid the touching the ground
I actually saw this in the theatre when it came out. My date jumped so bad that her popcorn left her hands and went straight up towards the ceiling. She also was a dancer. Very flexible. Both her arms and legs went up as well. From behind it must have looked like some kind of fountain or fireworks. The whole theatre laughed at her but she got spooked so bad she didn’t realize her popcorn was gone, or why everyone was laughing. Best movie date ever. Thanks Drinker
@@battlefrontgameplay1388 4hrs of Zach Snyder masturbating crappy CGI,in slow-motion and with dark colorgrading, is what passes for ''pretty good'' these days?! I'll rather have a root canal procedure at my dentist, then watching that again.
I remember running across this movie back in the day just at random, and I was delighted at how good it was. And for the first one, the casting was perfect. The later ones were more cult classics, but they're fun too. I now have the full set, and will fully enjoy watching them again.
I love how all the characters in this movie can have different and conflicting views on things, but will still work together and be very effective when the chips are down. And even some of the lesser, secondary characters often contribute in some way.
I have to disagree and don't like the livestreams where it takes them two hours to get to the movie and you have to watch and listen and the Drinker politely nods to someone else that's in love with their own voice.
@@wiictvchannel1112 goes more in depth and yeah that does happen but it depends on who he is doing it with, with someone he is more comfortable with he will be more free with his opinion.
I loved this movie as a kid, my brother and I would quote the movies. Our favorite was from the second 'I'm completely out of ammo... that's never happened to me before'
Kevin Bacon needs a lifetime achievement award for best supporting actor - the man has been in every movie (and done a Danny good job 90% of the time) since 1983.
The great thing about Tremors is that it's a bonafide Horror Movie. It is a spectacular concept that can haunt any man. But it also has a great sense of humor.
I read somewhere that the whole concept supposedly arose from was the screenwriter, when in the Army, being stationed in a desert somewhere sitting on a rock being bored, and suddenly he looked around at the ground around him and thought: "Hey, what if something was keeping me from getting off this rock?"
This movie changed my life ever since I saw it on Sci Fi, and it really saddens me how the last few movies, especially the very latest, is just barely a shadow of it's former self
The original thought for Tremors was just "what if sharks but on land." The graboids are actually a costume and its all practical. The snake tongues are puppetted. Even the final scene is done on the "miniature" set with practical effects. There is a documentary about the making of Tremors on RU-vid. I would highly recommend checking it out.
