THE WORMS HAVE TURNED!

Six years after Tremors first tunnelled its way into audiences’ affections, the original creative team returned for an equally edge-of-your-seat sequel that would pave the way for a long-running franchise by adding some new twists to everyone’s favorite slimy subterranean slitherers!

Earl Bassett (Fred Ward)’s celebrity after defeating the Graboid attack against the town of Perfection has proved short-lived, until he’s recruited by a Mexican oil company whose workers have found more than they bargained for under the soil. With the help of a scientist (Helen Shaver) and a new sidekick (Christopher Gartin) – not to mention the return of his gun-toting survivalist pal Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) – Earl is about to learn the Graboids have evolved and are deadlier than ever!

The worms have turned. They`re back! The giant underground creatures that terrorised a desert town in Tremors are now plowing their way through Mexican oil fields, gobbling up everything and everyone around - and only one man can stop them!
In the style of its predecessor, this comedy sci-fi creature feature reunites Fred Ward as down on his luck Earl Bassett and Michael Gross as gung-ho survivalist Burt Gummer, two desert desperados who take on the task of destroying the monsters. Partnered with them is Christopher Gartin, a young guy in need of kicks, cash and a career change, and Helen Shaver, a sexy and intrepid scientist who`s seen it all... until now.
Together they devise an ingenious plan for tracking and killing the creatures that is filled with high-speed action and plenty of laughs--until the predators wise-up. It`s a tongue-in-cheek thriller from the creative team that brought you the original Tremors, with new, outrageous creature effects from Jurassic Park`s Phil Tippett and Jumanji`s Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr.
