@@iaincowell9747 Hello, I was entertained. So was my movie watching partner. Off-hand I don't recall any other movie from that year, I'm reminded of my first day at work as a carpenter. To celebrate, I purchased a new hammer. I was tickled to watch Val barely hammer that brad into the top of the fence post. Reminded me of my first day on the job. Turns out my new hammer had a defect on the hammer face. A slight blemish. Hitting a nail head with that blemish caused the nail to bend ever so slightly. Any further blows would cause the nail to bend over. It took me nearly a month to find the blemish, so that I could actually blame the hammer. Bought an Estwing 20 oz. and lived happily ever after. Anyways Val really tickled me.
It was a nice casting against type for Gross, who at the time was best known for playing the liberal dad in Family Ties who'd been a hippie as a teen and worked in public television.
I love how Burt & Heather are those survivalist types that in most horror movies would be killed easily but these two completely subvert that by putting up a fight & coming out the winners. Also love how Rhonda keeps pointing out that she isn't the all knowing scientist most horror movies have
That weird blue machine she put the shells in is a case polisher. After you fire the bullets, you put the empty brass casings in there to clean them. Then they'll be ready to reload the ammo. Burt and Heather are definitely people who reload their own ammo.
They took a B-Movie concept, and turned it into an A level action/comedy/feel-good. This one is pretty much perfect - script, acting, effects. All on point. I don't know of anyone who watched it who didn't enjoy it. The characters were pretty much all making smart moves, but foiled at every turn -- very rare. Thanks for a fun reaction...
Speaking as a person with a science background, I love how (unlike every sci-fi monster movie ever) the scientist character very correctly answers, "I don't know" to the questions of what are they and where did they come from.
Geez, I've watched this movie a hundred times and just caught the "For all you know they can fly." and "Can you fly, you sucker!" call back. What a great movie.
“This one has a vendetta” I was so happy that you guys appreciated the underlined drama with Val & earl and the graboid who got ripped by their truck 😅 lol🙌🏻
I love how the "Stampede" comment doesn't just tie into the line at the beginning of the movie, but it's at the same location with the boulders everyone was on in the background, and how Earl was "stampeded" out of the truck while wrapped in a greyish brown bedroll so he looked like a worm! Heck, Val is even on the same side of the worm in the final scene as he was with Earl
You really gotta appreciate the majority of the cast for having the dedication to show up for the third movie, a movie that was released for TV and not having Bacon, Ward and Reba. Keep in mind most of the actors have had good films, Arianna more than the others, and the first film wasn't a success in theatres, the second released for TV. Yet they came, they accepted and they did the movie.
I loved this film because for once in a horror flick the characters acted like real people in a dangerous situation instead of complete idiots. Also the practical effects still hold up after nearly forty years.
Watching the behind the scenes segment on the DVD is a treat. How they did things is fascinating, and The graboid puppets/props are truly a work of art. Also ngl the graboids and their evolutions still give me nightmares sometimes in the sense that I (in my dreams) get paranoid about being on any ground that isn’t some kind of solid rock 😂 and also that a shrieker is gonna come busting through my window or door
I was 11 years old when this came out. It scares the crap out of me. At night I would run down the hallway as fast as I can and jumped onto my bed. You know, Because they were coming from underneath me. 😂
'That roof is not very structurally sound.' I don't think the builders took into account giant underground monsters ripping the building apart from it's very foundations.😂
You know interesting fact. The writer of this movie, came up with the idea when he was out in Nevada actually. He was standing on a rock just like the one our characters find themselves on, and he asked himself "What if I couldn't leave this rock" the original idea was something akin to sand sharks, but eventually evolved into the Graboids that we all know and love.
You missed Michael Gross of the TV series Family Ties, also starring Michael J Fox. And, you would not recognize her, but Bibi Besch, the wife of the couple that were eaten. She was Carol Marcus in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Also, a little Ariana Richards, pogo stick girl, better known as Lex, the hacker girl from Jurassic Park.
love watching people see Tremors for the first time. such a great movie. 1-4 were childhood favorites. used to do all night marathons of them all with friends in the mid and late 90s. The newest ones were ok, the last not so great but still Michael Gross was awesome in all of them. Don't forget to celebrate Burt Gummer Day every April 14th. As for the looking like a turtle, I believe they said in the "making of" they said that part of the inspiration for designing the monster was snapping turtles for the mouth and various other animals for the rest of the body. Originally the graboids were going to have a layer of skin that acted as a sheath to protect the head and as it went to attack the head would slide out of the sheath and open to attack....but they refused to make a movie that basically had something that looked like giant....uhmmm you know... attacking people from the ground.
"...you just went through a life or death situation, that's pretty bonding..." Ah, but don't forget the line from Speed: "Relationships based on intense situations rarely work out."
Found this gem on tv in the 2000s, won a trivia contest in 2018 because I was the only one who knew this movie lol . Got a box set with sequels I didn't even know existed
@ClutchPedalReturnSprg I personally agree with you, 4 is fantastic as a prequel, but I was more focusing on the life cycle of the Graboids and hoping they would continue through all the movies on their own motivations.
Oh man I remember seeing the original Tremors in the 1990's way back at my cousins place. Back then I didn't even know they had a whole series. Looking forward to seeing what your reactions are to the whole series...well if you do it that is!
Tremors 2 is great. The 3rd is ok. That's where I stopped at, but I'll eventually watch them all because corny/self-aware movies can still be really entertaining. But obviously the OG is the first movie. This is probably the best horror-comedy there is. It's just such a fun movie and it was always on TV as a kid so I'd watch it all the time.
Yeah, the assblasters were where I drew the line. Besides, they went and killed off Miguel. The dude survived the first movie only to get got in the third.
This was the first Giant Monster movie saw on TV! Its my favorite! The idea for the movie came from Screenwriters Brent Maddock and SS Wilson whom were in the Navy. In 1986, they were sitting on a large rock in a Nevada Test Site they were taking notes, and one of them said, "What if there was something under the ground that would never let us off this rock?" And thus TREMORS was born. They filmed the movie in Lone Pine, California as well the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
I love this movie. And one of the things that I love the most is that most of the main cast survives through the end, and that most of the characters have something to offer by the way of solutions to their problems. The doctor's wife is the one death that really gets to me.
34:50 It's a double-barrelled rifle, more generally known as an 'elephant gun'. And yes, it is used just about exclusively for TRUE big game hunting (elephant, cape buffalo, etc.)!
FUN FACTOID: The actor who plays "Mindy" in this movie, is the same actor who plays "Lex" (the computer hacking girl) in Jurassic Park ..... Ariana Richards.
I love Tremors, it's one of my favourite films. The monsters are dangerous without being unstoppable, and there isn't just one cheap trick to defeating them. The people are pretty clever once they figure out the rules, and aside from Melvin they're likeable. The sequels are good too, and even the TV series is fun, even if it's a bit wackier than the films.
Great movie. I usually don't like horror movies but this is the exception. You should also see Stir of Echos 1999 a sci fi horror also with Kevin Bacon Also a great Fred Ward movie is Remo Willams the adventure begins. I love the scene with the monster that attack the gun crazy couple it cracks me up :) . You got in into the wrong rec room :) . Fyi about the crazy gun couple. The woman is Reba a famous country singer and the guy was famous as the hippie dad (What a 180 :) ) on the popular 80's show Family Ties with Micheal J Fox (Marty from Back To The Future). Also the ending was change because the test audience wanted to be a kiss.
I love the observation that Burt & Heather are the "straight G's".... considering the previous roles for them were so vanilla. Reba is Reba and Michael Gross was known as the dad from Family Ties, so vanilla you couldn't imagine! Lol 🤣🤣🤣
Burt Gummer's double barrel is a 2 Bore Stopping Rifle. It is indeed used for dangerous game in Africa, you should look up the Forgotten Weapons video about the gun when Ian McCollum puts an entire .50 BMG into the gun and it slides down the barrel.
I love this movie. It’s fun but scared the crap out of me as a kid because I grew up in the high desert of Southern California. Same environment as Perfection so I always imagined underground monsters coming after me.
One of the coolest things about this is the casting of Michael Gross as the gunhappy Burt. At the time this came out, he was best known as Steven Keaton, the formerly hippie, soft spoken best dad from Family Ties. Burt is about as FAR from Steven Keaton as you can get, it was inspired casting.
i remember this being my first horror movie as a kid when I saw the worm I could not sleep for 2 days straight and group home staff had to explain they were not real. 😅
"Tremors": Something is making life in the tiny town of Perfection come to sudden gruesome ends. Can the town's handymen stop this unnamed/unknown/unseen monster? The B-movie that reached A-movie level with a mix of comedy/horror/romance. Kevin Bacon made this movie during a low point in his career. Then, he said, "Yeah, I made 'Tremors." Now he says: "Hell yeah I made 'Tremors!"
When it came out, some film reviewers commented that it was made in the style of 50's, 60's sci-fi genre. There are many classic sci-fi movies of that era.
That vibrating machine is a brass tumbler. Usually you put your spent brass in it to use a crushed walnut or corn-cob media to clean the powder residue from cartridge cases prior to reloading them. I can't tell if Reba tosses spent or fresh cartridges into the tumbler. presumably spent, but it's a whole box of twenty, so maybe she just wants her ammo to be nice and shiny for smooth chambering. They sounded more empty, so maybe she'd been firing that beast all day long at prairie dogs.
I am so glad I discovered the channel, I am enjoying these movie reactions so much. Tremors was actually a minor inspiration; in one of the books I'm writing, I enjoyed Val and Earl's constant rock-paper-scissors deal so much, I decided to put it in the book.
That's a Dillion Precision vibrating cleaner/polisher. I don't have one, but I have a few other items from Dillion Precision including the RL500B (I think it is) reloader and case sizers.
There is also a 13 episode TV series made by the Scifi channel. It brought back Bert, and the actress and actor who played Mindy and Martin show up as their old characters, just older. Even had Christopher Lloyd as a mad doctor with other weird animal experiments. I honestly enjoyed it a lot, but scifi canceled it because it didn't pull Stargate numbers.
I always come back to this movie as my example of how set up and pay off should work, for a b movie moster flickthe wrighting is so good and well thought out.. This is a childhood favorite for me.
I watch a bunch of first time watching reaction channels and i do like couples when one has seen it and the other is mostly clueless, I like the reaction when the clueless predicts something and the others facial expressions cause we both know what's comeing i never get tired of it great reaction y'all
The first movie is defiantly the best, but that said I LOVE the first 3 movies and I consider them three parts of one big movie. When I watch Tremors, I watching all 3 movies at least, usually the 4th as well. I haven't seen the other 3 yet. I will... they are on my "One Day" list with SO many other movies. Oh, and I love the TV show too. It drops a lot in production quality (cos it was a TV show from the last 90's) but it's still quality where it counts.
I like the first 2, 3 is alright, and 4 is fun every now and then. Just don't set your expectations too high for 5, 6, and 7. They are easily my least favorite and are definitely "made for t.v." kind of movies.
i would like to highly recommend the following classic movies: Phantoms (1998) From Hell (2001) Red Planet (2000) The Blob (1988) Color out of Space (2019) The Void (2017) Rubikon (2020) Angel's Heart (1987) The Colony (2013) Altered States (1980) Last Days on Mars (2013) Event Horizon (1997) Young Sherlock Homes and the enigma of the Pyramid (1985)
It's a "brass tumbler". You load the drum with fired brass and a cleaning medium, such as ground up tree nut shells. It cleans the brass for reloading.
The Tremors movies are great for "good fun time" movies. I do like that they always tried to add some new twist with each movie, but 1-4 is the main lifecycle, and then we get into weird alternate mutations.
The one thing that always stands out to me, in this movie: watch the part where the trackloader falls into the trap and Bert falls out. Look at how the stuntman lands; I've never heard of any filming injuries in 'Tremors,' but I swear he must've broken both ankles.
32:22 its a machine that basically polishes the used shells for when they decide to reload the ammunition. So that cleans the spent casings and they go from therw
There also a Tremors TV series on the Syfy channel. The website for it went into detail about the history of what they were. They basically revealed that they are ancient land-evolved squids.

Val and Earl's banter is on a different level. "Everyone knows about em Earl, we just didn't tell you!"
One of the greatest Horror/Comedies in history. Couldn't even tell ya how many times I've watched it over the years and it never gets old.

Not a month goes by without me rewatching Tremors 1-4 lol I simply love this series.
The casting of Reba McEntire and Michael Gross was simply inspired. Their scene in the basement is possibly the best part of the film
The best scene is two people shooting at something for 5 straight minutes?

one of the rare 10/10 movies. Nothing would make it better, and removing anything would only make it worse.
Tremors is a perfect movie. It's the best version of itself it could possibly be.
Yeah, it's one of those "perfect" movies. I always enjoy watching it =)
a 5th graboid
at the end
could've set up a
sequel
That blue drum in Earl's cellar is a brass cleaner. You use it to clean spent shells.
Burt’s.
This. You clean them so you can reload them.
Oops.
The banter between the two main guys is just unrivaled by any other movie. It's perfect.
I loved this film because for once in a horror flick the characters acted like real people in a dangerous situation instead of complete idiots. Also the practical effects still hold up after nearly forty years.
Watching the behind the scenes segment on the DVD is a treat. How they did things is fascinating, and The graboid puppets/props are truly a work of art.
Also ngl the graboids and their evolutions still give me nightmares sometimes in the sense that I (in my dreams) get paranoid about being on any ground that isn’t some kind of solid rock 😂 and also that a shrieker is gonna come busting through my window or door

The origin of the "floor is lava" game!
Also you should totally react to Tremors 2. It's almost as good as the first.
34:50 It's a double-barrelled rifle, more generally known as an 'elephant gun'. And yes, it is used just about exclusively for TRUE big game hunting (elephant, cape buffalo, etc.)!
13:10 That is so damn cute how you startled and reached for your man, Kacee. Men love that kind of thing even it it's on a subconscious level.

I can't tell if Reba tosses spent or fresh cartridges into the tumbler. presumably spent, but it's a whole box of twenty, so maybe she just wants her ammo to be nice and shiny for smooth chambering. They sounded more empty, so maybe she'd been firing that beast all day long at prairie dogs.
Tremors is my favorite film
I saw this movie when it was on either VHS or early DVD from Blockbuster at Australia great reactions, cheers mate :).
Haven’t watched this one but Tremors 2 was on VHS when I was a kid. Movie was so good
Best of the sequels.
RIP Fred Ward. I love the Tremors movies and the Tremors tv series. I was six years old when this movie came out. I'm damn old.
I am so glad I discovered the channel, I am enjoying these movie reactions so much. Tremors was actually a minor inspiration; in one of the books I'm writing, I enjoyed Val and Earl's constant rock-paper-scissors deal so much, I decided to put it in the book.
That's a Dillion Precision vibrating cleaner/polisher. I don't have one, but I have a few other items from Dillion Precision including the RL500B (I think it is) reloader and case sizers.
you're right. they get campier as they go on, but they are all fun
The first is the best, but the 2nd is nearly as good. After that the quality varies greatly from movie to movie. So I would definitely do at least 2.
From what I understand, the last scene was added after test audiences didn't like that the two didn't end up together.
I’ve seen this movie so many times and I did not catch that that was Reba wow! Good eye buddy!
There is also a 13 episode TV series made by the Scifi channel. It brought back Bert, and the actress and actor who played Mindy and Martin show up as their old characters, just older. Even had Christopher Lloyd as a mad doctor with other weird animal experiments. I honestly enjoyed it a lot, but scifi canceled it because it didn't pull Stargate numbers.
I always come back to this movie as my example of how set up and pay off should work, for a b movie moster flickthe wrighting is so good and well thought out.. This is a childhood favorite for me.
This is one of my all-time favorites!

Metal roof in the middle of NV, I can understand the hesitation.
Came here to have fun watching a Tremors reaction, ended up finding out Fred Ward passed away earlier this year 😥
I watch a bunch of first time watching reaction channels and i do like couples when one has seen it and the other is mostly clueless, I like the reaction when the clueless predicts something and the others facial expressions cause we both know what's comeing i never get tired of it great reaction y'all
The first movie is defiantly the best, but that said I LOVE the first 3 movies and I consider them three parts of one big movie. When I watch Tremors, I watching all 3 movies at least, usually the 4th as well. I haven't seen the other 3 yet. I will... they are on my "One Day" list with SO many other movies.
Oh, and I love the TV show too. It drops a lot in production quality (cos it was a TV show from the last 90's) but it's still quality where it counts.
I like the first 2, 3 is alright, and 4 is fun every now and then. Just don't set your expectations too high for 5, 6, and 7. They are easily my least favorite and are definitely "made for t.v." kind of movies.
I stopped after 3 and I haven't seen the TV show at all... Loved this movie growing up, they showed it on Sci Fi all the time.
i would like to highly recommend the following classic movies:
Phantoms (1998)
From Hell (2001)
Red Planet (2000)
The Blob (1988)
Color out of Space (2019)
The Void (2017)
Rubikon (2020)
Angel's Heart (1987)
The Colony (2013)
Altered States (1980)
Last Days on Mars (2013)
Event Horizon (1997)
Young Sherlock Homes and the enigma of the Pyramid (1985)
love that line."everyone knows about them, we just did'ent tell you" lol
It's a "brass tumbler".
You load the drum with fired brass and a cleaning medium, such as ground up tree nut shells. It cleans the brass for reloading.
It's Egg Shen!!! Tremors and Big Trouble in Little China in the same universe
The Tremors movies are great for "good fun time" movies. I do like that they always tried to add some new twist with each movie, but 1-4 is the main lifecycle, and then we get into weird alternate mutations.
And yes, that machine is for cleaning spent cartridges so they could be reloaded with fresh primers, ball and powder.
The one thing that always stands out to me, in this movie: watch the part where the trackloader falls into the trap and Bert falls out. Look at how the stuntman lands; I've never heard of any filming injuries in 'Tremors,' but I swear he must've broken both ankles.
32:22 its a machine that basically polishes the used shells for when they decide to reload the ammunition. So that cleans the spent casings and they go from therw
There also a Tremors TV series on the Syfy channel. The website for it went into detail about the history of what they were.
They basically revealed that they are ancient land-evolved squids.
Tremors was released 34 years ago today,January 19th 1990. Tremors was the first movie of the 1990’s I saw in the theater.
I love these movies! Yeah, there are 6 more movies in this series. Five and six aren't bad, but I have not seen the newest one.
