A prequel to Tremors (1990), this movie tells us about how the town of Perfection, Nevada became founded and how they defended it against the Graboids with the help of Burt Gummer's ancestor, Hiram.
The giant, man-eating Graboids are back and even deadlier than before, terrorizing the inhabitants of a South African wildlife reserve as they attack from below-and above.
The new sequel finds Burt Gummer, who's dying from Graboid poison, and his son Travis at a remote research station in Canada's Nunavut Territory, where they must go up against a new batch of Graboids to save Burt's life.

The town of Perfection has a stated population of 14 at the beginning of the film. The inhabitants are Edgar Deems, Old Fred, Nancy & Mindy Sterngood, Miguel, Walter Chang, Val McKee, Earl Bassett, Burt & Heather Gummer, Nestor Cunningham, and Melvin & his parents. Many often mistakenly forget to list Melvin's parents and instead replace them with the doctor and his wife, but the doctor and wife would not count as they had just moved to Perfection and weren't yet official residents.

Tremors is a flawless film. The story is original and entertaining. The actors make it all the more fun, especially Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward and Michael Gross. Tremors is the kind of movie that can't be placed in a certain genre. It's a little bit of everything; horror, comedy, action, adventure, etc. Don't miss this very good movie!
