You can just see the "Fun for the whole family!" review blurb on the VHS box at your local video store. And it is just that: a perfect, fun-for-the-whole-family movie about subterranean killer worms.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Sep 11, 2022
Tremors remain a goofy delight. Filled with practical Graboid effects, exciting setpieces and a not so subtle queer romance at its center, the 90s creature feature holds up

Unashamedly silly and playfully irreverent, “Tremors” is born from plenty of inspiration while still carving out its own offbeat identity.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 27, 2022
Any movie where Reba and a country boy wearing an Atlanta Hawks hat hunt sand worms that want to eat them, all while Kevin Bacon wears a cowboy hat, is A-OK in my book. Such a fun movie and great idea, and suspenseful!

Propelled by impressive practical effects, this is an oater-inflected monster movie which fully embraces its own icky absurdity and literally low culture – but the film’s hidden weapon is a strong focus on characterisation.

This is a rollicking, rip-roaring funhouse ride, with enough rude shocks to keep you anxiously on-guard, and enough self-mocking sass to be immensely, exhilaratingly funny.

It captures the structure and speed of those '50s sci-fi classics better than just about any other attempted update in this field.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 13, 2021
The mixture of unexceptional heroes, monster movie violence, and tame comedy - all unraveling in a desolate, arid landscape - is certainly unique.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Sep 25, 2020
It paints in western shades a science-fiction comedy canvas in which the brilliant leading duo, the imaginative work of the director and the special effects department stand out. [Full Review in Spanish]

It's hard to not grin and give in to the buoyant, boisterous, bloody and, yes, brainy energy here -from cockamamie camera placement to practical effects and editorial rhythms that sometimes recall Sam Raimi at his rowdiest.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 30, 2020
A simple and entertaining film. Nothing more and nothing less. [Full Review in Spanish]

Tremors is a treat.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 22, 2020
Tremors is the Slacker of monster movies: bemused, improvisatory, willfully low-key.
| Original Score: B+ | Jan 22, 2020
It's a zippy melodrama for small-town America and small-towners at heart: well-executed kitsch for audiences that will still be amused at the notion that the bugs are getting so big, they'll drag us all down.
| Jan 22, 2020
Unlike the typical movie homage, Tremors actually improves on the B-movies that inspired it.

A near flawless piece of work...
| Original Score: 4/4 | Oct 15, 2019
The monster pic manages to be funny and clever, and deservedly has become a cult classic.
| Original Score: B | Nov 19, 2015
Entertaining and unself-conscious enough to stand the test of time, even if the puppetry doesn't.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 3, 2011
I think there should be a lot more movies like Tremors out there, and no I don't mean more sequels.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 9, 2011
