Tremors forges a new path with a new monster that entertains while the body count rises.
Tremors is a fun creature movie that doesn’t take itself seriously and creates a clever, gross, fun new monster franchise that lasted several decades. While the plot of Tremors is the typical small band of survivors trying to survive the hungry monsters, Tremors innovates with a creature unlike anything that had come before - the Graboid. Subterranean beasts that stalk their prey from underground and spring from the earth to swallow their unfortunate meals whole. Kevin Bacon leads the survivors and nails the cheesy vibe of the film without overplaying the part. Sure, Tremors isn’t an Oscar-worthy film, but its creative creatures are groundbreaking 😜 and force characters to find clever ways to overcome and survive while keeping their feet off the ground. Tremors is a quality creature flick with an entertaining new monster and a lovable cast of misfits.
