‘Tremors 2: Aftershocks’, ‘Tremors 3’ and ‘Tremors 4’ Getting New Solo Blu-ray Releases This Summer

Published

If you haven’t been able to track down one of the complete collection sets, you’ll be happy to hear that some of the best Tremors sequels are getting their own Blu-rays this summer.

Universal Studios will be releasing Tremors 2: Aftershocks (1996), Tremors 3: Back to Perfection (2001), and Tremors 4: The Legend Begins (2004) individually on Blu-ray July 13!

In Tremors 2, “They’re back! The giant underground creatures that terrorized 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 down-on-his-luck Earl Basset (Fred Ward) and gung-ho survivalist Burt Gummer (Michael Gross), two desert desperados who take on the task of destroying the monsters. Partnered with them is Grady Hoover (Christopher Gartin), a young man in need of kicks, cash, and a career change and Kate White (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.”

Then in Tremors 3, “Those morphing, man-eating monsters are shaking things up again in the dusty little town of Perfection, Nevada – and survivalist Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) is the only solution to the latest in evolution! Aided by a couple of young local entrepreneurs (Shawn Christian and Susan Chuang), Burt pits his impressive knowledge of weaponry against the newest and deadliest generation of Graboids. If Burt and his new partners can’t find a way to stop them, then the creatures that put Perfection on the map will wipe it right off the face of the earth. Tremors 3 promises earth-shaking, explosive, edge-of-your-seat entertainment.”

And finally in Tremors 4, “Get ready to be shaken to your core with Tremors: The Legend Begins, the thrilling prequel to the groundbreaking original film! When workers in a remote mining town of Rejection, Nevada, fall prey to an unseen creature, the mine’s owner, Hiram Gummer (Michael Gross), great-grandfather to Tremors‘ Burt Gummer, hires a mercenary to destroy the carnivorous creatures before they swallow up his profits. What follows is an all-out assault that takes the battleground from deep in the earth to a suspense-filled showdown on the streets of Rejection!”
