Tremors is an absolute classic thriller, pitting the inhabitants of a small podunk town against four giant worms. The cast is well rounded, with Bacon and Ward playing the two unexpected hero's. And Reba? Amazing. The storyline is developed, the acting and dialogue not too cheesy, and the effects great for a movie it's age. Just a good time.

I was absolutely shocked when I saw this film, as I really expected it to be a terrible piece of trash. Instead, I was thrilled that the movie had an excellent sense of humor and never took itself seriously--and that is why it was so successful. In many ways, the film was a lot like a traditional 50s sci-fi film about an invasion that the authorities won't believe is taking place--combined with massive amounts of drugs or a head injury to give it a very weird twist! Instead of the typical victims (usually teenagers),the citizens in this Western locale are anything but! Especially the wonderful characters played by Reba McIntire and Michael Gross! They actually seem to COME ALIVE and ENJOY the invasion of these giant killer worms, as it allows them to put their very formidable arsenal to good use!! They are probably better armed than some of our National Guard units! Plus, the others, including Fred Ward and Kevin Bacon, don't just stand there and die or act like idiots from a HALLOWEEN movie, but grab guns and get to work trying to save the planet! This is a movie that really succeeds since it has real attitude and is lots of fun!
