Summary: Almost as good as the original
Review: Tremors 4 diffently makes up for the countless faults of Tremors 3. There is very few cheesy CGI effects, it is mostly back to good old fashion puppetry...which for a lot of it, looked real on their part. Most of the people are great characters, and Micheal Gross does a super job doing a "anti Bert" kinda of image, well since he is suppose to be the great grandfather.The new baby graboid forms are to die for. The scenes of them launching out of the ground to try and hit their target into submission is great. Kinda laughed when one of the men got hit form both sides by 2 little ones. Over all the movie was nearly almost as good as the original. Each character has their own special quality that makes them induring. Especially Black Hand Kelly. Most certainly going to be a Tremors fan fav when all is said and done.

Summary: Awsome
Review: Tremors 4 this is my 11th favorite movie of all time...it's way better than the Lord of the Rings Trilogies (which I found frankly a little not realistic). I liked it that it took place in time way back in the 1800's and was historically correct (with miners and everything-my grandfather was a miner and he really loved the movie and found it authentic). Movies that take place in the past are always more artistic and I think this movie is a lot like The English Patient and The Godfather but I have to admit I haven't seen those movies. Michael Gross I am glad was in it even though he played the grandson in the first three movies-it makes sense because it was his ancestor this time and so it would look like him-duh! The action was to the moon-if you love action you should buy this. The product placement I found to be a little intrusive-even if Cheetos existed in the 1800's I would find it unlikely that giant carnivorous worms would eat them. I liked the tremors being replaced by CSI. It's hard to think where the series will go from here-the tremors in part 2 could walk and part 3 could fly, now 4 is the prequel like the new Star Wars movies. I think the next movie should have tremors with eyes and maybe they'll have a time machine so they can go to the future. Also I would like to see talking tremors-maybe a hannibal lecter type thing. If you're going to order this, remember this is a Digital Video Disc and can't play in ordinary VCR's.

Summary: Cool first/Dull Fourth
Review: Tremors 4/5 Tremors is truly a cult film. Ignored upon it's initial release it's built up a huge fanbase and cult following. It's easy to see why. From a smart and inventive script by SS Wilson and Brent Maddock (Short Circuit 1 and 2) comes an exciting, silly movie with no pretentious delusions. In the desert town of Perfection, Nevada giant, man-eating worms awaken from a long hibernation and begin munching on the townsfolk. The have no eyes but hunt by sound and vibration and they're quick on the uptake and won't fall for the same trick twice. A pair of local handymen (Bacon and Ward), a crazy survivalist (Michael Gross) a not very pretty love interest (?) and some bratty kids band together and hatch plans for escape. But the giant worms, or Graboids, are too hungry to allow that. Full of gory moments and brainless fun, Tremors is not a great movie but much fun and rewatchable time and time again. The DVD comes as a Collector's Edition and has quite a few extras. The 1.85:1 picture is unfortunately non-anamorphic and the sound is Dolby 2.0 made from the original Stereo track. It's not terribly involving but gets the job done. Tremors 4: The Legend Begins 2/5 A surprisingly poor sequel this time. Offering us nothing new and no excitement. Set in the 1800's, the town of Perfection, then called Rejection, is becoming a ghost town because the Graboids are gobbling up all the mine workers. The mine owner (Hiram Gummer-Burt's ancestor and complete opposite) comes to town to sort out the problem but proves to be useless. He hires a notorious gunman (the ever-evil Billy Drago) but he proves to be useless too. What is weird about this film is that it provides NO set-pieces for our characters to do anything or prove themselves. Nothing happens and the film seems to drag on for ages with long periods of no Graboid action whatsoever. Weird considering it's directed by SS Wilson who did the Tremors 2 and 3. It doesn't feel like a Tremors film at all. Where's the fun in watching a bunch of period characters learn what we've long known about the mysterious Graboids? Michael Gross is great as Hiram in regards to playing the complete opposite of what he is popular for and showing some range as an actor. But he just doesn't do anything. There is no reason to watch this film. Plus it's not shot on 35mm film but with a TV camera. The 1.78:1 anamorphic picture proves this only further. It really does look like a feature length episode of the Tremors TV show (which I don't think I'll get if it's anything like this, assuming it ever comes to DVD at all) and it's very distracting. The sound is in Dolby 5.1 and is quite good during the tunnelling and gunfire scenes but it's not reference quality stuff by any means. This special two-pack DVD set may seem cool but be warned...there are no inserts in either DVD. An annoying popular and lazy, unimaginative trend currently being practiced by Universal. The first release of Tremors came with an insert that folded out and contained lots of info about the film. I sold that version thinking it'd be included in this two-pack (as Tremors 4 is not available on its own) so be warned anyone expecting to find one. Plus I also got the ugly bilingual cover that doesn't match any of my other Universal DVDs. Make sure you don't get this one. As much fun as the first 3 Tremors movies are the 4 is rotten and makes me want to sell the whole lot as it ruins a great line up. Don't be tempted by this two-pack and pick up the first 3 movies on their own.

Summary: Tremors 4 - Is It Finally Over?
Review: Tremors has a legacy that they've let down. For fans of the orginal, with its comedy/horror mixed with quirky characters and relationships, the second one may have come as a shock. Much like Scream 2 or Gremlins 2, the second Tremors is as fun to watch as the original because it maintains the clever dialogue, credible production values, and likeable characters while also focusing on continued character development and self-deprecated humor that creates a campy, fun journey. Tremors 3, while missing some key character chemistry, was true to the original by keeping Micheal Gross's character alive and presenting some new action scenes with the Graboids. In Tremors 4, we've lost the characters, any budget that would've made interesting action scenes, and we have long, long scenes of dialogue and witless dialogue. If its not funny, not scary, then what exactly is Tremors 4? Tremors 4 only has 3 Graboids, called Dirt Dragons, and one of them dies underground. So you have an hour and a half movie with (I think it was) 4 people dying and 2 graboids being hunted. If the film can't have any of the aforementioned qualities, then it should not be connected with the Tremors legacy. This felt like a really long made for cable TV movie. Sorry guys.
Big Letdown!

Summary: For those who say this is for "die hard fans only"...
Review: What the hell have you been smoking? Tremors 4 not only has the same entertainment value as Tremors 1, but also has better acting and effects than the prior two sequels, along with a much more interesting story. Plus you can watch this movie without having seen any of the others and still enjoy it (and understand it). It is, of course, even more of a jewel for prior Tremors fans. It's yet another classic twist on the underground monster story, and there were so many moments in this that I loved I couldn't possibly list them all. For a tiny budget b-movie I am continually amazed how great these Tremors films are, and how crappy all the new $200-million cgi-loaded bad-acting un-funny "blockbusters" are. We need more movies like this.

Summary: Going Strong
Review: When I saw the original Tremors back in the day, I had no idea it would go on this long. Then again, I had no idea that Children Of The Corn would go on(who actually watches those?) or Hellraiser. Tremors is one of the few horror series' that hasn't lost it's integrity-the same can't be said for Children Of The Corn which was rotten from the first sequel to this very day. No, Tremors isn't high class horror, and it's not gonna win any awards, but you can almost always be certain that a Tremors film will be a relatively painless hour and a half. Tremors 4 is no exception; It's not bad, it's amusing it's funny. No, I'm not gonna watch it ten or twenty times, but I admire the effort, and I like the fact that the same group of people has been doing these films from the first one on. Also, the highest point for me was a way-too-short role by the creepiest actor in film history, Billy Drago. He is always fascinating to watch and this film could have benefitted greatly by his character sticking it out till the end. But it seems to be a Hollywood rule that Billy Drago be killed in (almost) every film he's in. Basically it's as simple as this: If you like the Tremors films, you'll like Tremors 4.

Summary: Wonderful tongue-in-cheek action
Review: You will love this film whether or not you're a Tremors fan. Plenty of action and tension and a good moral at the end. Every character is "Larger than Life," and very engaging. It's a tribute to well crafted films that have something for everyone. Our family is eagerly awaiting Tremors 5.
