Tagline: The monster movie that breaks new ground.
Plot: A couple of luckless dreamers leave the small town of Perfection and cross the desert in search of odd jobs.

With quick thinking -- and a conveniently placed cement wall -- the duo outwit the hungry sand beasts. Back home they brag of their escape to the weird collection of townsfolk. A seismologist who just happens to be studying the area tells them there are lots more of the creatures hanging around. And, like everybody else, the worms are aiming for

 Tremors, though cheesy, over-the-top, and unbelievable, is an exceptionally enjoyable film - Entertainment Weekly described it as "superior trash," which is as close a recommendation that it can be given, I suppose. ... Tremors seems to succeed for the same reason as many of the Friday the 13th films and the Evil Dead trilogy: it never takes itself too seriously.--Cortney Fusco (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
If you like laughs and scares then you'll love this intelligent, funny, action-packed and highly entertaining joyride. Excellent in all departments.  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)

Tremors has a lot of funny, scarey, and cool moments that combine to make it one of the best horror/comedy films to date.  --JStephen (Bloody-Disgusting.com)
