And thus TREMORS was born.

One of my favourite "horror" movies. It's more like a cool monster movie than anything else. It's got a great cast, great humor and just an all around "cool" monster that had some thought put into it. Also really good effects. The graboids are sensitive to sound, they quickly "run" away from any noise too loud for them to bear. So when Val threw the bomb behind the last one, he made it speed up to exit the cliff face and fall. Also the little girl (Mindy) in this acted in Jurassic Park. Ariana Richards.

I really do think this should be taught in film schools. It hits that perfect balance between action, characters and storytelling. We know just enough about these characters to be invested in their survival without having to rely on stereotypes or quirks to inform the characters. They are well rounded and not just there to be victims, the movie has one of the highest survival rates of most monster movies. The action is so well paced, well executed, nothing drags on too long, the script and the story has no fat on it, no tangents or improved scenes that they had to fit together later, everything that happens is set up and paid off. For me personally I don't live anywhere as remote as perfection, but I do live in a rural area and it's so refreshing to see rural people not portrayed as bumpkins and buffoons. They may not be the smartest people, but they can problem solve, think on their feet and adjust when things go wrong.

Tremors 4 is a fun story about the founding of Perfection during the mid 1800's and features Michael Gross playing Bert's distant ancestor. I've watched all of them and have no regrets, it's a fun series and you can tell how much Michael Gross enjoys playing the role even as they clearly run out of budgets and ideas. By Tremors 5, they start to just fall into a "graboids, but this time in a new exotic location!" routine. South America, Antarctica, tropical island... but if you enjoy watching Bert Gummer killing graboids, it won't get old.

This movie lives in our collection for all time!! Just a well written, excellent cast, and original monsters made this movie way better than it should have been. The casting of Earl and Val was so spot on, and Reba and Michael Gross was so good. I love how everyone there was a microcosm of personality types....it was just sooo good. Great review ladies! Oh and the little blond girl in this is the same one from Jurassic Park!!!

Someone once described the mind as "a closet that's never cleaned out". What we watch, listen to, and learn stays with us. You're not a wimp, Carly; you're cautious about what you allow to become part of you. And I'm with you; I don't like feeling dark, either (and I'm former Marine infantry). Hang in there!

I'm a soldier with PTSD so the conversation about being wimpy, you're not. Now when it comes to: the mind & imagination. The brain can be scarier than most things in real life. With an active imagination it's not hard to re-live the horrific scenes over & over when something in real life reminds you of it. I too love reality for that reason, people are predictable compared to the imagination, especially on your own. That's why I like reaction channels with real humans; it reminds me of watching a video as a kid with loved ones to ground me, until my health took me away from them. Thank you for inviting your sister over. It warms my 🖤 & melts it's icy exterior a little at a time. 🙏thank you for your channel!

This is one of those late 80's/early 90's movies that would ALWAYS be on TV so I saw this many times when I was a kid. And I loved it! It was just a fun movie and is a perfect blend of horror and comedy. It isn't even horror, but it has a creepiness factor to it. The comedy was a great blend that made it fun and enjoyable with a nice blend of action as well. I'll always have a soft spot for this movie.

And Rhonda isn't just a damsel in distress, but a genuine science lady who is practical and just does her thing even if Val and Earl are busy being Val and Earl.

It referenced many other movies. I noticed a lot of Jurrassic Park references, including the little girl, who played Lexi in JP. Also the worms were smart-they tested buildings etc, like the raptors, who never attacked the same part of the fence twice, and figured out how to open doors. I think of the monsters as T-Rex worms. Also their mouths looked a lot like the mouths of the insect warriors in Starship Troopers. And besides the Dune refrences you guys noticed, they were also like the sand worm in Beetlejuice (which I guess was also a Dune reference?). The gun-happy guy who played Reba's husband was the dad in Family Matters, the 80's show with Michael J Fox in it. And the old Chinese guy was also in Big Trouble in Little China (as well as a lot of other things). Also I think the way the worms had little worms coming out of their mouths was like the extra mouth inside the mouth of the Alien (in Alien). And the fact that the worms can't hear you unless you move was like the way the T-Rex couldn't see you if you didn't move. It was basically a pastiche of all those movies, and probably more I missed.

This is one of our Family Movies- we've seen it so often we can speak whole conversations just in quotes. My little brother was about 12 when he first saw this and the part where Reba is shown just cycling through the guns and shooting two-handed, I remember his jaw dropped to the floor, he got this amazed/dreamy/hyperimpressed look and breathed out in wonder, "What a woman!" *LOL* We tease him to this day but he did marry a Canadian lady who also likes firearms and going shooting. Probably not a coincidence. Tremors is a GEM. Just perfect!
