Earl Basset, a character from the original movie, is hired to clean up a infestation of giant subterranean worm creatures from a Mexican oil field.
This week we watched Tremors 2 and some people have already asked why we didn’t watch the first one, well in true Midnight Movie Club fashion Dan saw Tremors 2 late one night and knew straight away that we should watch it for the club.
So we watched it, we talked about it, have a listen:
It’s been a big week for the Midnight Movie Club as we slowly find our feet with the podcast and get various stuff organised.

I’ve never seen Dirty Dancing and I’m not about to start watching it now, it seems a terrible load of old nonsense to me – it hasn’t got any monsters or ray guns or atomic mutation and it’s not even in black and white.
Steven Seagal isn’t in it either.
@Morticia/Ms Siobhan, I concur! Has midmoclub jumped the shark with this choice?!? “Steven Seagal isn’t in it either.” Nor is Dennis Quaid!
What WERE they thinking!
(Now to dig up my Tremors trilogy – I still haven’t watched 2 and three!)
@SG-3, Jump the Shark? On episode 8? Surely not.
We’re trying to cover a broad variety of movies here on the club, although I suspect we’ll not venture into films like Dirty Dancing again for a long time after next week.
@SG-3, Highly recommend number 2 (if you can’t already tell by the podcast!) – I’ve yet to watch 3 or 4 or the television series but I think there is a good chance that I’ll be checking them out in the future.
@Lee, I held off listening to this one until I watched the movie. That is one fine film, considering its troubled beginnings (http://bit.ly/bcFQ3z ; there’s some great stuff on this site! )
Loved the podcast, and I think they did mention some Meh-he-can food too – Kate apologizing that they were not well equiped food-wise and there was only some Nachos maybe (or I could be making that up!)
Now, I’ll try and catch up with the podcasts a bit!
@SG-3, That site is fantastic! I love the fact that the internet contains such things
@Morticia/Ms Siobhan, What do you mean no ray guns?? It’s chock a block full of them! I can tell you’ve obviously not watched it. For shame.
@Morticia/Ms Siobhan, I see Dirty Dancing as the prequel to Roadhouse, before Dalton had to change his name and become a bouncer.
The tagline to Roadhouse is “The dancing’s over. Now it gets dirty.”
What, they are ray guns in Dirty Dancing? are you sure you just didn’t want ray guns whilst watching it so you could have ray-gunned the cast out of existence?
Or your own eyeballs so you didn’t have to see what was on the screen?
Fred Ward will always be recognizable to me for two roles: Earl, and Remo Williams (now that’s a midmo movie). Love his attitude.
@Jeff, I’ve never seen Remo Williams and judging by the poster I probably should.
@Lee, Oh yeah. Definitely. It’s a fun patch of ’80s goodness. And according to IMDB, they’re working on a remake. Just looking at the IMDB page makes me want to go out and rent this thing.
@Lee, This, I think, will be the clincher for you – the same guy did the score for this and Last Starfighter (and, apparently, the game Leisure Suit Larry 5).
