Right ok so....lets start with me and Tremors.
I think my dad rented it on VHS and was watching it and much like other films I walked by and saw some stuff as a 5 year old. Like Critters and Peter Jackson's "Meet the Feebles" I stuck around long enough to be repulsed (Farmer Neds tortured face under his hat reveal.) left to go play outside.
Years later like when I was 10 or somthing, I came across it late night on ITV and decided to watch it as I saw a few minutes at the start and Val and Earl made me laugh, so watched on I am not at all a horror person, yet I loved the Dark comedy of Tremors.
Tremors one is excellent and done amazingly well.
Tremors 2 is sort of like Alien 3 for me....I have watched it the most and know its not the best yet I do love it dearly. Except I would have more people back me up on Tremors 2 and not for Alien 3. So I know its not great yet I do love it soooooo much. Tremors 1 is great and does it great, Tremors 2 is not great yet it has great moments.
Tremors 3...... I cannot trash yet I cannot back up it being decent. It is weak it is stupid and yet it does have decent stuff yet...kinda...sucks. If someone never saw Tremors and came to Tremors 3 late one night it would be like Sharknado or Piranha 3D uber campy stupid low budgeted.
Tremors 4 is just Tremors 1.....except while it does the whole Zombie like movie thing "oh no I have no clue what this thing is everyone watching has known for 10 years......." yet it is decent and good.
Tremors 5 I will defend far more than Tremors 3, it is bad yet is bad good. Jamie Kennedy I too when I saw his credit and then saw him appear in the film I too face palmed and went "oh fuck....they ruined Tremors." as Son of the mask reels into my minds eye. Yet no, he was ok...he was oooookay. Better than the doctor woman who was all super awesome all the time (Takes on super Graboids with a bow..... and wins?) there is large parts of the movie that is super eye rolling and tries to kill you with it...yet....it feels better and done better than "assblasters" and the resulting film around it.
Tremors the TV serise I enjoyed and I should rewatch it, yet I would rewatch Twin Peaks cult tv serise from start to finish before Tremors TV serise. Yet it is dumb fun much like Toxic Avengers the Cartoon is, were the creators is sitting going "uuuuugh? ARE WE SERIOUSLY GETTING A TV SHOW? ummmmm fuck it, do what ever we are not gonna last long just make stuff we want to do!"
However it realy is a sorta cheaper yet better done Tremors 3. It is a monster a week tv serise because "Mutant ooze got into the ground mutating all the wild life to be whacky killers, unlike Graboids which is their home ground." Yet do you wanna know who the person is who is this mad scientist who was part making the Teenage mutant turtle like Mutagen? CHRISTOPHER "DOC BROWN" LLOYD!!! also half the characters are actualy decent. You ca
Sadly there is not videos of him in it, yet he was their "expert" sage old man who would go "ahhh yes....this looks like Mutagen 2243 which turns Cascades into flesh eating plagues of terror!" which happened and was cool.
Also...it seems Tremors tv serise is getting rebooted with Kevin Bacon.... maybe it it works out. This is a year old news, yet I didnt beleive Tremors 4 was happening and I didnt believe tremors 5 was happening...yet they happened!
