This week, Richard and Angeles head to Perfection, Nevada, where something very big is lurking beneath the dirt. We're talking Tremors (1990)—the cult creature feature that gave us worm-based horror, survivalist comedy, and the most likable duo this side of the Mojave.
Join us for a scene-by-scene breakdown of this desert-set monster mash, loaded with fun facts, praise for practical effects, and discussions about why Tremors holds up as both a horror-comedy and a love letter to old-school monster flicks.
