Really Surprised!

Boring, long, and too preachy.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

"Tremors" its a classic monster movie, its like a well made version of one of those low budget creature features, its very reminiscent of movies like "Them!" or any other giant insect B movie for that matter, but this one actually has some likable characters, amusing effects, nice acting, good pacing and its well directed.Its absurd and many things don't really make sense, not to mention that there are many ways of killing these things as they are inconsistent with how they attack, sometimes they are just underground but other times their head comes out of the ground, exposing themselves to people shooting them, whether these creatures get you or not depends solely on what the script says.Overall, its really a fun time, I cant really complain about this one, also, I love when movies like this have better characters than they should, I could watch a movie about these people without the monsters and still be entertained.

Tremors should be a stupid movie. In Tremors, two wisecracking sidekick co-worker/friends are fed up with their hobunken redneck Nevada town and dream of heading to the big city, only to come across a herd of giant underground worms that are hungry for human flesh while moving out. The story is something an 8th grader would come up with, but two very talented writers adapted the story into a magnificent screenplay, and it was later adapted by a smart director and his brilliant crew.First of all, the dialogue between characters is realistic, catchy, and witty. Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward talk like real humans with lines that flow smoothly. Most of the characters are like this, but these two in particular share some brilliant chemistry. Second of all, the tension is flawless. While I do think some trimming could be done in order to keep the reveal of the monsters more shocking, what we have is still excellent and much better than most in its genre. The audience at any point never suspects that the mysterious events occurring around town could be because of a giant monster. Third, the pacing is magnificent. Only at around 90-minutes, the 1at, 2nd, and 3rd act are all very distinguishable and flow together very well. The two writers behind his screenplay are S.S. Wilson and Brent Maddock, and they deserve much more credit that what they get.Ron Underwood finely directs this film, taking obvious inspirations from John Carpenter and Sam Raimi along the way. There are several gorgeous wide shots of the deserts, something you'd print off and hang up on your wall. The sound design is also fantastic: the monsters locate prey by keying in on sounds or vibration. The movie is mostly silent except for loud bursts noise, and most edits cut from silence to loudness. It's genius attention to detail like this that make Tremors such an enjoyable experience.I'll never understand why this film doesn't get more love, even among 80's/90's nostalgia fanboys and monster movie lovers. You'll see entire tributes dedicated to mediocrity like Ghostbusters or Burton's Batman, but you'll be lucky to even see sentence written about Tremors. Tremors is everything a movie should be, and more monster movies should follow in vein of this 90's classic.

My favorite low budget B-Horror movie of all time, and also my favorite film from Kevin Bacon(Sorry Footloose). The entire cast is great, especially Michael Gross who shines above everyone else as Burt Gummer(You can see why he was brought back for all 3 sequels). Granted the sequels suck(2 wasn't terrible but nowhere near as good as the first one, and the 4th one had some good moments.). I love the humor, action, and sci-fi elements mixed in, and of course the star of the movie is the Graboids, the huge worms that terrorize the humans in the film. Although I will admit the worms evolving in the later films is pretty cool but the characters of the last 2 just aren't as entertaining to watch on their own. Burt's character is good throughout every movie but he can't carry the films himself so when you lack good supporting characters it takes away from it greatly. Also it seemed the quality of the films actually went down as the films when along.

I thought this was a decent monster movie that has fair amount of entertainment value. It's a monster movie that doesn't focus on the fear and gore elements but more on the fun elements. Where a group of people in Nevada that lives near a small desert area. Has to fight off giant worm like creatures underneath that eats humans. I think the idea came because of a group of kids playing a game where they have to stay on platforms. And away from touching the ground and the kids that touched the ground either becomes one of the infected or eliminated from the game. What this is, isn't a psychological terror or anything like that, but a fun filled movie with fun characters trying to survive. While also trying to fight back with the resources they have and outwit the giant man-eating worms. What I appreciate about this movie, is that although it might go slightly overboard. It doesn't try to be more than what it is. So if you want to watch a fun low-budget movie with a group of friends or even with the whole family, this one might lead to a somewhat enjoyable time.7/10
