Tremors 2 - Aftershocks (DVD)

******************** Contains Spoilers ********************* Following on from the original Tremors, which was an excellent movie, the 'graboids' are back in this surprising sequel. It was made a six years after the original and in it you do see the return of some familiar faces. The story is quite bizarre and really isn't very believable given the nature of the movie. The Mexican army has found an area near their oil refinery that is inhabited by these 'monsters', I wanted to use infested but that really wouldn't be appropriate because they have existed far longer than us humans and have a right to live anywhere they like..

Ask most people about Tremors 2 and they have usually never heard of it or cant remember what happened, most people didn't really expect a sequel to a video sleeper but people who saw it would of been pleasantly surprised.

Fred Ward returns, but as we can all guess Kevin Bacon doesnt after going on to ...  Read the complete review

Tremors 2 ? Aftershocks is the sequel to the kind of successful film Tremors, this had to happen inevitably just like there had to be an Evil Dead 2 etc? The main question was could they get the main starts back to do the sequel.

Well after the enjoyment of the first film, I was hoping for a sequel of worthy proportions, alas I was left cold. A similar plot to the previous film, as the man-eating underground worms return to wreak more havoc.

He is swiftly joined by Burt Gummer from the previous film and helped out by newboy Christopher Gartin. Cast: Fred Ward is dependable, though he seems bored by it all and is going through the motions in this one. Gross ...  Read the complete review
