Some Things ARE New Under The Sun
This is a truly great film. Script, casting, humor...As others have pointed out, Tremors resurrects the 50's monster movie genre, but it actually offers some new twists. I've been watching B-movies for at least 32 of my 40 years ...I've seen monsters burned, electrocuted, nuked, dissolved, chopped, diced, pureed, crushed...you name it, I've seen it. The writers of Tremors actually came up with new ways to kill the monster! I thought I'd seen it all. In addition, anytime humor is mixed successfully with horror, the result is that the viewer is kept off balance and on the edge of their seat. In my opinion, this is one of the best monster movies of the past twenty years.
