Aaaah! This should promote some good discussion!

Tremors sequels, the pillars of the Sci-Fi channel. Lest we forget.

Great flick. It and the sub-par sequels it spawned are a staple of the new Sci-Fi channel.

Fun movie.

Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward were great together, I wish they made more film with them.

Great b-movie.

The first sequel was actually pretty damn good.

The second sequel was a terrible piece of shit.

The third sequel was slightly better than the prior outing, but still terrible.

I liked the guy who always said "pardon my french." I never understood what that meant, because I was around 8 or 9 when I first saw it. But a great movie anyways. I always felt bad for the old dude that got stuck up in the electric tower.

I've only seen the first sequal. And it was okay.

I love this movie! Never saw any of the sequels or the ill-fated series because I didn't want to ruin my enjoyment of the first one.

Have all 4 movies. Yes, they did get worst as time went by but I love Burt Gummer and he was in all of them, sort of, the last was his great great grandpappy.

Loved the original, didn't care much for 2 or 3 but I thought 4 was kind of fun.

This movie is a classic to me, I always put it on when I want to sit back and relax, i give the sequels credit if for only subsequently returning all the minor characters from the first movie as leading roles as they went on.

Probably the only post-50's movie to capture the excitement and spirit of 50's scifi/horror - great fun all the way!

Oddly, the first film is in mono only. Kickass box, though.

I went to sleep with it on cable, and when I woke up, it was on again.

Always loved the line when they are on the rock;

"That means we're stuck... That pisses me off!"

Not sure why, but it always makes me laugh.

This is so true.
