It doesn't feel like the first two films at all and the story has a new twist that is completely unrelated to the graboids (if you can believe it). I enjoyed it when it was on but it was sadly cancelled after 13 episodes despite good ratings because of some crap between the Syfy channel and the production company. The DVD is only $9.00 on Amazon.com and for 13 episodes, I'd call that a deal.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Tremors-Complete-Series-Michael-Gross/dp/B002ZHKZGA/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1390645725&sr=8-5&keywords=tremors<br /><br />Also, I can't believe you thought this film was worse than the third one! I hate prequels on principal because they typically strangle the integrity of the original installments and cover little to no new ground, but this one did it for me. It was funnier than the previous film and the production values were much, MUCH higher. The graboids (as you mentioned) are mostly realized through practical effects this time around and are great eye candy. Also, as a personal nitpick, I was happy that the filmmakers went back to the original graboid design for this film. The cheap, rubbery looking tongues in the third film just didn't do it for me. The sound design was also more impressive this time out, lacking that muffled sound that was present in "Back to Perfection."Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03062232221655247960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7459781420607928525.post-19132097324881975592011-02-01T13:49:08.390-06:002011-02-01T13:49:08.390-06:00I watched as many episodes of Tremors: The Series ...I watched as many episodes of Tremors: The Series as I could when it originally aired on the Syfy Channel (back when it was still the Sci-Fi Channel, I think). I loved every silly second of it. I even went so far as to buy the series when it was only available as an overpriced bootleg, then bought it again when it was released commercially. Because I am that big of a dork.<br /><br />The show wasn't classic, but it was tongue in cheek fun that was not the least bit embarrassed to just play (or even go outright insane) with its admittedly ludicrous monster of the week format.Chadzillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06946014711274087184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7459781420607928525.post-52683894057431556312011-01-30T14:58:57.481-06:002011-01-30T14:58:57.481-06:00awwwww...no review on the tv show? i still can'...awwwww...no review on the tv show? i still can't believe they made 4 of theseSir Jorge Ordunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12538889001050034217noreply@blogger.com
