Universal Prepping Fifth ‘Tremors’, Possible Reboot?

Published

on

One of my favorite franchises that was run into the ground is Tremors, which started back in 1990 when natives of a small isolated town, defend themselves against strange underground creatures which are killing them one by one. Kevin Bacon and Michael Gross starred. Nearly twenty years later (good god), Universal Pictures is ready for another underground attack as a fifth film is in the works. Read on for the details.
Cinemablend reports that a fifth TREMORS has already been greenlit and will take the creature to Australia (I guess they travel underwater too).

We’ve heard from friends on the inside that a fifth TREMORS movie is being prepped by Universal Pictures. This one will shift locations to Australia, which should mean at least one or two cool scenes in which the graboids swallow a Kangaroo or a family of Koalas. They’re calling it TREMORS: THE THUNDER FROM DOWN UNDER.

They also tease that it could end up being developed into a remake.

Odds are it’ll end up direct-to-dvd, but with Hollywood’s recent proclivity for rebooting everything in sight, don’t rule out the possibility of an attempt to relaunch the thing as a viable, theatrical horror franchise.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones.
