Tremors 2, electric puppetsoo

I kinda like the Tremors movies, they are a nice romp in the movie world.
This one was not as good as the first, thanks to Kevin Bacon. Can't really make a great movie without the Baconator. I guess he was too good for the sequel, it happens.
So they leave it to Fred Ward to return and continue the story.
I like the fact that they figured out how to make new creature thus making it a whole new adventure and not just the same"ooh there's big worms in the ground" thing again.
They added some new interesting characters to liven up the show. I like that the dad from Family Ties shows up with his own personal armory.
The puppets are really cool, some sketchy stop motion and an underwhelming explosion climax scene.
All in all not bad to watch for fun.

I give this 3 big worms giving exploding births out of 5


No Trembling in Tremors 2

Well Tremors 2 was actually one of the better movies we have watched (good pick Brandon). I was expecting some scary/terrifying moments that would have me twitching all over the couch but it mainly consisted of quirky remarks and half bad acting! Tremors2 even had a touching, sentimental part were I began to actually feel bad for the graboids!

I think they could have put a little more effort and funds to the ending of the movie though. "It's going to be BIG" turns out to be medium. That explosion sucked! I could have done better with a lighter and some dust bunnies!

By far my favorite was Burt Gummer(mustache man). " I ... am completely.....out...of ammo" his face was priceless! This movie would not have been as good without him!

I give this movie 3Exploding knuckle buddies out of5





Hey Hey it's the Graboids!

And people say they Graboid around!


Tremors 2 was a fun movie! (any movie that has people running around and shooting at monsters is fun IMO)

I didn't know that there were four Temors movies released. To be honest I don't even really remember the first one. This second one was fun though, and it makes me want to see the other ones. It was probably one of the better movies we have watched so far on this blog. (that says a lot)


The Goods: It's a fun movie monster movie. The use of animatronics was actually impressive.
The Bads: Some acting was really hammy. The worst part was when they made the creatures in CG to make a pyramid. They looked awful.
The Moral: Graboids are like gremlins. I'd hate to see what happens when they get wet.
Rating: 4 "Doing what I can with what I got" out of 5

I'm sorry, I don't know what this is. But it exists now.

It's a Whole New Ball Game!

I think the Tremors movies are great. They're not really scary movies, but that might be because I've watched them so many times! It kinda reminds me of Gremlins, in that it doesn't take itself too seriously and it's just a fun mindless monster movie to watch. It's too bad that Kevin Bacon didn't want to stick with the quadrilogy, but that's fine because he wasn't my favorite character of the franchise. My favorite would have to be Burt Gummer, he always has a blast blowing up graboids.

The monster effects were a lot better in this installment than in its predecessor. They played around a little bit with CG effects (witch were not composited very well; they always seem too bright for the scene), but mostly stuck with the physical puppets (which looked pretty good).

Tremors is a classic, but my favorite out of the franchise would have to be Tremors 2: Aftershocks.

I give this move 4 Pounds of C4 out of 5.

It's Bert! hur hur
