Tremors is a 1990 American monster film directed by Ron Underwood, produced by Gale Anne Hurd, Brent Maddock, and S. S. Wilson, and written by Maddock, Wilson, and Underwood. Tremors was released by Universal Pictures and stars Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Finn Carter, Michael Gross, and Reba McEntire.

This is the first installment of the Tremors franchise, which was followed by four direct-to-video sequels: Tremors 2: Aftershocks (1996); Tremors 3: Back to Perfection (2001); a series prequel, Tremors 4: The Legend Begins (2004); and finally Tremors 5: Bloodlines (2015).

Thirteen episodes of Tremors: The Series, a television program based on the film series, aired from March through August 2003.

Valentine "Val" McKee and Earl Basset work as handymen in Perfection, Nevada, an isolated ex-mining settlement in the high desert east of the Sierra Nevada mountains. They eventually tire of their jobs and leave for Bixby, the nearest town. As they leave, they discover the dead body of another resident, Edgar Deems, perched atop an electrical tower, still grasping the tower's crossbeams and his .30-30 Winchester rifle. Jim Wallace, the town doctor, determines that Edgar died of dehydration, apparently afraid for some reason to climb down.
