Quarantine Watch #29: Tremors (1990)

My roommate really wanted me to watch this with him since I hadn’t seen it before. I’ve always been aware of it, and honestly I thought it was only going to be okay. I ended up liking it more than I thought I would. I mean — don’t get me wrong, some of these actors are straight up, bad — but it kinda adds to that B-movie feel. Kevin Bacon is the man (as always) and so is Fred Ward. I honestly was waiting for a gigantic Godzilla sized version of the worms (like on the poster) and was shocked when it didn’t come. I thought that would have been a cool twist. This definitely also reminded me of so many movies like EVOLUTION and EIGHT LEGGED FREAKS that came after it, so it’s nice to see how TREMORS influenced them.
