The Tremors franchise is a monster movie series centering on the vicious attacks of subterranean worm-like creatures known as Graboids. It began in 1990 with the successful release of Tremors, which spawned four direct-to-video films; three sequels (Tremors 2: Aftershocks, Tremors 3: Back to Perfection and Tremors 5: Bloodlines) and a prequel (Tremors 4: The Legend Begins).
In addition to the film series, Tremors: The Series, a television series that premiered on Syfy, was produced, only to be cancelled after 13 episodes.
Tremors is a 1990 American monster film directed by Ron Underwood, with a screenplay by S. S. Wilson and Brent Maddock, starring Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Finn Carter, Michael Gross and Reba McEntire. It was distributed by Universal Pictures.
Tremors 2: Aftershocks is a 1996 action-horror-sequel to Tremors, in which the character of Earl Bassett, returning from the first movie, is hired to deal with a subterranean "Graboid" infestation at a Mexican oilfield. It was directed by S. S. Wilson, and stars Fred Ward, Christopher Gartin, Michael Gross and Helen Shaver. It introduced a new creature called the Shriekers.
