Hmmm... "Tremors" is on AMC - is this movie worth watching?

[southlandshari]

The plot sounds goofy... "Four big worms with multiple tongues dig high-speed around people in the middle of nowhere".

Yet it got very good reviews and is played on TV all the time.

Ooo - Fred Ward - I love him!

Anyone else watching?

[texanwitch]

1. It's a great movie, must of seen it a least a million times.

You wiil like it.

[southlandshari]

5. Are you watching now?

It's always more fun to watch with friends, you know!

:hi:

[obxhead]

2. It was worth a chuckle. not much else on so

I'll probably tune in myself.

[southlandshari]

8. Hey there!

Are you watching? They just did "rock, paper, scissors" to see who had to climb the tower to get Edgar down. Whoever the hell Edgar is.

Oh dear, Edgar appears to be dead!

:rofl:

[obxhead]

18. It will be on pause for 40 minutes or so.

Then I can fast forward through the brainwashing, I mean advertisements.

[CanuckAmok]

3. it's pretty fun.

Very campy. A real "homage" to the creature features of the Fifties.

It's always playing on late-night TV up here.

[southlandshari]

[usedtobesick]

I had to do some family commitments so could npot fly down there... but I talk to her often as I can. I do miss her pointly little head... she is my Hero though... very brave and caring lady!

and back at you... :hug:

[terrya]

6. Kevin Bacon is in it also.

And, well, Kevin Bacon is watchable in practically anything.

So, I'd say...yes. :-)

[southlandshari]

17. You do remember correctly!

I was just not inclined to point that out, as I have no interest WHATSOEVER in good-looking, witty and intelligent men.

Really I don't.

;)

[Redstone]

26. You don't? Damn.

There go my chances.

Redstone

[southlandshari]

29. Ahem.

There IS an exception to every rule, darlin'!

:hug: How was your Thanksgiving?

[Redstone]

33. All join me in a toast to exceptions, then.

Our Thanksgiving was, for the first time in five years, quiet. Just us and the boys, without the plague of locusts that the Irish side of my family resembles. (Just joking; we do really like to have company for Thanksgiving.)

But it was nice to have a quiet day; I've been working way too much lately and needed the break.

How did the day go for you and yours? Well, I hope.

[graywarrior]

7. Funny as hell

[WCGreen]

11. How was your Thankgiving....

I know you were planning on takin' it easy... Hope you had a good time...

[graywarrior]

15. Hey, thanks for asking.

I watched a Harry Potter movie and stayed in my house for the day. It was great. No relatives calling, no burnt turkies, no guilt.

[WCGreen]

19. Sounds like a wonderful day.....

[Redstone]

12. Hey, it's got Reba!

What more do you need?

Redstone

[graywarrior]

20. The Mothership to come back and get me.

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. It's a lot of fun - and great to see the "Family Ties" dad with weapons

It's not a good movie, but it's hella fun.

[obxhead]

21. Not your every day joe weapons either.

He's ready for Armageddon.

[southlandshari]

23. Oooo - that sounds fun!!!

Alan Thicke with an uzi?

:woohoo:

[usedtobesick]

24. wrong father...

this is Michael Gross

[southlandshari]

27. ROFL!! Even better!

Which show was Alan Thicke on? I am woefully devoid of knowledge of Nick-at-Nite-worthy TV trivia!

:hide:

[usedtobesick]

31. I think it was Growing pains for something like that

[yellowdogintexas]

36. Michael Gross is the "Family Ties" Dad and he is

just hilarious in this movie.

[WCGreen]

14. It's Funny and wierd and Reba plays a survivalist

married to Michael Gross, the dad on Family Affair....

[southlandshari]

32. I just saw them.

I love the casting so far!

:thumbsup:

How was your day, dear?

:hug:

[WCGreen]

35. Busy.. And way too much food....

But Now I am here... With all the people I have come to know and love.. all the people who are there for me in the dead of the night...

And all the people who tolerate me even when I head straight for the gutter....

I hope you had a wonderful day and all set for the race to December 25th....

[southlandshari]

30. ACK!!! THE SCARY WORMS HAVE ENTERED THE FILM!!!

Poor lady, trapped in her station wagon but the goofy looking giant worm. But look! There is a gas can in the car with her. Pretty safe bet that item will reappear later in the movie, right?

:P

[ralps]

34. Cool they've just pole vaulted to her truck!! "Walter forget the damn

name" "Graboids" "Sort of we don't vibrate" :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[leftofthedial]

37. yes! great movie

you're likely to get addicted though.

[ScreamingMeemie]

38. I went to see it at the theater when I was grossly overdue with my

daughter...It was....a night out at least. :hi: Enjoy. :hi:

[Gormy Cuss]

39. Ooh yes. It is scary and goofy at the same time.

The worms are as scary as the ones in Dune. The dialog and scenes are hokey. Fred Ward and Kevin Bacon --- you MUST watch.

[Twillig]

40. I can't not watch it

everytime it comes on, somehow I find it.
