Arby’s Just Posted a Fun Video Paying Tribute to ‘Tremors’

Published

No way these are local boys.

This year looks like it’s going to be a big one for the Tremors franchise. Next week, filming begins on the tentatively titled Tremors 6, which will once again star Michael Gross as badass Graboid-slayer Burt Gummer. Gross will be starring alongside Jamie Kennedy, reprising his role from Tremors 5: Bloodlines. And then there’s a new Tremors TV series in the works that will be disregarding the events of all the sequels. Kevin Bacon is set to make his grand return to Perfection as Valentine McKee, and last we heard, the series will call Amazon home.

In the meantime, how about a super low-budget remake of Tremors?!

Fast food chain Arby’s just uploaded a short video to their social media accounts that pays tribute to Tremors, and though we’re not exactly sure why, we’re damn sure not complaining. The video features sauce packets running away from what is clearly a Graboid… and let’s just say not all of them survive. Is the chain teasing a Graboid Burger?! Cause if so, I think I’m gonna need one.

I’m vegetarian but I’d totally break the rules for a Graboid Burger.

Of course, it’d have to have bacon on it. Cause Kevin. Duh.

Dev Patel’s ‘Monkey Man’ Is Now Available to Watch at Home!

After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.

You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!

Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.

Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”

“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.

She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
