Twenty-Five Years of Tremors (UPDATED Oct. 8)

In 1990, the movie Tremors hit the big screen. Starring Kevin Bacon (Val) and Fred Ward (Earl), it is set in the fictional town of Perfection, Nevada. It has since become a cult classic, and has spawned multiple sequels, Tremors 2: Aftershocks, Tremors 3: Back to Perfection, Tremors 4: The Legend Begins, and a short-lived TV show.

And today, we get Tremors 5: Bloodlines.


The film starts Michael Gross who plays survivalist Burt Gummer, who has been in all the Tremors films and TV show, and who happens to be my favorite character, because he's crazy! It also starts Jamie Kennedy as his new sidekick Travis.

Here's the basic plot:

"Survivalist Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) and his new sidekick Travis (Jamie Kennedy) are hired to track down an ass-blaster terrorizing South Africa. As they engage in battles with the aggressive creatures, they discover an even more lethal creature."

The film will have the good old monsters, Graboids, and ass-blasters (which originally appeared in Tremors 3,) and will have something else, too. As to what that is, I don't know.

The Tremors series is the one so-bad-it's-good Sci Fi series I really like. (It's a lot better than a lot of the other movies like it.) I already pre-ordered the new movie.

If you want to get it too, you can find it here.
