Tremors – ep44 – 1990

Underground worm monsters and Kevin Bacon. Obviously, “Tremors” is awesome. The humor-horror combination is attempted often but rarely replicated. So how does it work so well? Practical effects, hilarious reaction shots and the discipline to never let the movie go TOO BIG with antics. Angela and Tyler discuss a classic, as well as how so many inferior movies try to be “Tremors” and “Ghostbusters” but never get it right, sequels to “Tremors” and “Ghostbusters” included. Plus, Tyler recites verbatim scenes from “Jurassic Park” any time Ariana Richards’ character is mentioned. “It’s a UNIX SYSTEM! I know this!”
