Tremors

monster mayhem

06 December 2008

Tremors is a horror film that mixes in action, comedy and adventure in a way that mirrors classic b-movies. Giant 30ft monsters with massive teeth begin to terrorize a small town, leaving the locals with no choice but to defend themselves as best they can or risk a horribly painful death. Tremors is made brilliant by the fantastic chemistry of the two leads – Val and Earl, whose banter together makes the film a joy to watch. Tremors packs in plenty of tension, and gore at an extremely fast pace considering there are only 15 town resident's that possibly can be killed off. The monsters themselves are pretty hideous and certainly quite scary. It's the comedy in the film however rather than the horror that really makes it successful, and the fact that Tremors combines an exciting plot and simple good fun.
