Quirky "Horror" Comedy
In TREMORS, a small desert town is attacked by huge man-eating, destructive 'worms', and two cowboys - Fred Ward and Kevin Bacon - set out to stop them. That's the premise: no explanation for the worms' arrival, no elaboration.And this works. TREMORS is not a horror movie: it's not even scary. Sure, some moments make your heart beat a little faster, such as when the guys are being chased across land by the worms. But TREMORS doesn't take itself seriously, and you shouldn't take it seriously either.A few of the jokes fall flat, but on the whole TREMORS is an amusing, quirky comedy that's been overlooked.
