Tremors is one of the cults of the nineties, a monster movie with an ancient flavor: Kevin Bacon, who played it together with the late Fred Ward, owes him a slice of his fame (Footloose permitting). For a Tremors 8 would there be?
Tremors had a non-secondary importance for the fame of Kevin Baconhowever blossomed with Footloose (and nobody wants to dispute it): however, there is nothing better than a monster-movie old-fashioned, set in the American province, to entertain properly, so much so that a possible new Tremors would be theeighth chapter! Thanks to social media, the question to the interested party can be addressed directly: it would be there or not?

Kevin Bacon in a new Tremors? He’s there: when do we leave?
Tremors by Ron Underwood was released in 1990but it wasn’t a blockbuster: it was a proud b-movie based on monsters in the desert of the United States, an update to the great tradition of films such as Assault on Earth! e Tarantula, with a budget of only 10 million dollars. In the US it wasn’t even a success, bringing home only 16 million: second Kevin Baconco-star with the disappeared Fred Ward, “did a fifth of what Universal planned to do”. Simple story: in the desert in the Sierra Nevada mountains huge worms they run underground, attracted by noisesoccasionally popping up for eat the unfortunate ones. A group of unfortunate people try to save their skin.
The fact is that the half flop at the cinema turned into a explosive success in what was then called “home video“, between VHS and cable TV, and for this very reason the following six (!!!) films of the saga saw the light of day in that territory, which later became the elusive streaming with the last Tremors: Shrieker Island (2020), which still sees among the protagonists Michael Gross, the mustachioed character who never gave up the series. Kevin Bacon, on the other hand, cast off his moorings as early as the second chapter, and perhaps he has a bit of a guilty conscience: when a fan on Twitter wrote that a scene in trailer of the new Shazam! Fury of the gods conveyed to him a wish for a new Tremors at the cinematagging Kevin, the person simply replied…
