Tremors II: Aftershocks

Tremors 2 does a nice job of following the success of the first, without being too copycat or too ridiculous. The vibe is very much similar to the first, good humored and full of monster hunting goodness. The sequel also does a nice job of paying homage to those who didn't come back, while introducing new characters that fit into the plot well. All in all, a decent movie, if you go in with low expectations and a certain love for low budget, high quality monster movies.

The Tremors movies are not to be taken seriously and Tremors 2 is no different. It's a fun, light-hearted monster movie that you can sit back and enjoy. Fred Ward and Michael Gross return from the first movie.(Kevin Bacon not making a comeback shows a little elitism on his part I think. What, are you above Tremors now Kevin?) Both characters lend a hand in making this a good film. The film takes the Graboids a little farther up the evolutional chain this time, and the effects are still good for the small budget. Bottom Line: If you liked Tremors then you'll like Tremors 2.

It's a sequel so almost by definition is inferior. It does keep in the same spirit as the first, but doesn't live up to the original. Overall however it was a fun movie with a few twists and definately worth checking out. I consider the original Tremors a classic, so my expectations were high. If you've seen the first ( I know you had to love it) then check this one out, it's worth seeing.

Recently shown on the Horror Channel in the UK. And as a fan of the classic original I thought I would give the sequel a view

Have to say I was pleasantly surprised by what I saw. The practical and computer effects were half decent considering how small the budget was. $4m according to IMDb

Plenty of mentions to the original as well to tie it nicely with the first film. Chris Gartin is pretty poor as the Kevin Bacon replacement in my opinion but let's be honest it's a Tremors movie, no one is in it to win a Oscar. It's light hearted comedy horror that knows what is is.

If you enjoyed the 1st film then you should enjoy this one.
