TREMORS 5 Is Coming and Michael Gross Is Back!
I've got some awesome news for all you Tremors fans out there! Tremors 5 is in development, and weapons enthusiast Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) will be back to take on some more deadly graboids. Only this time his adventure will take place in South Africa.
The news come from Bloody Disgusting, who says that the film not only includes the classic graboid creatures and the Ass Blasters, but a brand new creature will be introduced as well. Here's the synopsis that was released:
"The theatrical release of the original Tremors in 1990 combined suspense-filled action, sci-fi imagination and witty humor in the tale of a tiny Nevada town terrorized by giant man-eating worms known as Graboids. The Graboids eventually morphed into even more deadly creatures known as Ass Blasters. In this all-new adventure that travels halfway around the world to South Africa, the Graboids and the Ass Blasters are not only bigger and badder but Tremors 5 introduces an additional unexpected surprise that raises the stakes in the battle for survival."
I've been a big fan of this franchise since the first movie, which starred Kevin Bacon. Who would have thought that there would have been five Tremors films over the years. Glenn Ross, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Universal 1440 Entertainment said in a statement,
“The Tremors franchise has built a reputation for high intensity fun and suspense and this installment takes it to a whole new level.”
The movie also stars Jamie Kennedy (Scream) as Burt's new right hand man, tech-savvy Travis. Tremors 5 will be released on Blu-ray Hi-Def, DVD and Digital HD in 2016, and I can't wait!
