Hollyweird has no idea of the concept of new idea's!! LOL

That said, I started watching the new Tremors movie. Starts out where they are supposed to be in the Artic but it was obviously shot in sand. The second scene cuts to the original store with Bert in it arguing with the tax man ... and the show just gets worse and worse.

I SOOOO did not want to hear that. . . . But I've seen the same thing from reviewers. Even the diehard fans seem to be barely clinging to the old, "It's good BECAUSE it's Tremors." lifeline. = I know I'll watch it anyway. . . . I've GOT TO. It's TREMORS, damn it! LOL
I wonder if THIS is what killed the Bacon series???
It would sure be FUN to see a reunion flick with all the old crew. Heck, I'd settle for a spin-off book! (series??? . . . I could never get THAT lucky!)

Keep It FUN!

I'm not a Tremors lover but I do/did like all of the movies I've seen up to now. It maybe good if a person sticks with it but 10 minutes of what I saw turned me right off. Of course the boss was sitting here too, I may go back and try to watch it when she is gone. :-)

I did watch the whole thing. I am really sad that Stampede Entertainment didn't do the latest two. The original group really understood the campiness was main charm of the first four movies. In the first four there was not a single sex scene or any young ladies getting killed, both of which are staples in slasher films. Those do show up in 5 and 6.?

Both 5 and 6 had too many characters, too many sub plots and were just too serious.

There was a very nice call back to the original movie in 6 though.

I gotta pretty much agree with Terry. --- The wife and I just finished watching Tremors 6 and we liked it. The Original four were better. Especially 1 & 4. But overall, I think we'd watch it again as part of a marathon. Probably not as a stand alone like 1 or 4, but certainly good enough to carry on the Tremors tradition of Direct-To-Video Not Overly Horrifying Or Slasher type movies. I also agree with Terry that it was trying too hard to be serious. (If ya can count all the Global Warming and DARPA digs as serious. LOL) They do need to lighten up and give us back the laughs though. --- As to the chicks getting ate in 5 & 6, . . . I'm pretty sure that the guys still outnumber the gals by a long stretch. In the original Dr Wallace and his wife both got eaten early on in the flick, so Graboids have never shown a preference for males only. I'm just glad that they haven't found a need to make the Graboid feeding scenes overly graphic as so many flicks would have been doing by now.? --- Sex scenes??? --- I must have missed something other than the goodbye kiss at the end.?
Was I the only one who remembered those eggs in the the hot springs are still sitting there???
OVERALL = I'd give it a four Graboids out of five rating. LOL

Keep It FUN!
