If your isolated desert settlement was plagued by the sand version of the infamous ALASKAN BULL WORM, what would you do?
I’m going to break down the mistakes made, what you should do, and how to beat the Graboids in Tremors.

In the second one, its possible what you said they should be doing (ambush) is exactly what they are doing, as they keep suddenly being detected despite the detection range being several miles. Its possible the small population in this town paired with the rock on all sides, has caused these creatures to be starved and resorting to active persuit.

When I was in elementary school a girl warned me about these monsters. She was afraid of every hill on the way to school. I remember saying "even that one?" Pointing at a small hill, and she said "Yep, that's a tremor." I don't remember my own age but I remember that. Lol

I'm less critical of their stubborness with the "we must leave the area" plan. Most people are trained to leave the area of danger and let someone more qualified solve the problem, it's the case with fire, disasters, crimes and even animals. So the idea of "telling everyone about the danger, get together and leave" is not inherently wrong, it's just not the best option in their situation, which is even more true when you consider that those things would probably just follow them forever.

I like how the graboids don't start out cunning or smart but evolve and learn tactics throughout the movies to match the protagonists as they learn. Usually the things that seem smart, like cutting the phone lines (or the radio tower in Tremors 2) are actually just coincidental actions. You can see the phone/telegraph wires are brought down in the rockslide at the pass where the construction workers are killed (and the heat of the radio tower attracted the attack in Tremors 2). Personally, I would have just gone back to the concrete trench where the first was killed and try and take another one out there. The third and fourth might smarten up and not ram it, but they'd still have to bust through the concrete.

I think this is the first time I've really disagreed with Nerd. The total mass of the houses isn't the issue. They are cheap buildings placed on mostly sandy soil. Bert is probably the only one who might have foundations on bedrock. So the graboids can simply shift or damage the buildings one section at a time without needing to lift the whole thing. While Bert's bunker is the best place for the town to rally to, they shouldn't stay there. It is the sturdiest building around but the rec room scene proves that it can be breached. The graboids can at the least destroy Bert's supplies and likely bring the building down given enough time. At the same time the gravel and stones around the bunker make baiting the graboids even more difficult. The CAT is the towns best option, albeit dangerous to get to. They talk about the mass of the machine but it's the mobility and horsepower of the thing that makes it viable. The graboids can't move it easily or quickly, while it can break their hold. Once they have the CAT they should do an irregular circuit around the town to by time while they deploy a variety of sound traps and attacking any tentacle that get's within machete reach. And if the graboids start to get wise just strap some pipe bombs to Melvin and throw him over the side.

It honestly feels like he just really doesn't like the movie for some reason and is very specifically searching for reasons to be highly critical of all the decisions made in this movie. Tremors is probably one of the best examples of a horror movie with actually smart protagonists. Those road workers definitely weren't residents of the town and were sent out there to work on it so there's no way they would know old Fred and would've assumed they were being genuine. Telling them about the sheep probably would've made them believe them less. They just wanted to finish the job and leave. He criticized them for the pole vaulting thing and how the sound distraction would've been better, but they didn't know if they would go for the distraction every single time and the pole vaulting kept them off the ground and away from them. He also talks about how they should've prepared earlier by setting up sound traps but they were given very little time from when Val, Earl, and Rhonda were able to tell them that they were underground from when the worms arrived. It took everybody by surprise. They didn't know that being in the Gummer's basement would've been the better play at all because they didn't know about the worms until they got back into town. He also goes back and forth a lot between saving the people and not saving people. He says they should've used Melvin and Mindy as bait, then criticized Melvin for not saving Rhonda, and then criticized Val for saving Rhonda. Everything you addressed about staying in the town and why leaving is perfectly sound. I don't understand how he thinks they would be able to hunker down with the guns safely because they literally can't shoot them through the ground and trying to bait them out would've been extremely risky. He also just doesn't seem to understand how people react when they're panicked because he is constantly criticizing that people made a dumb decision when it was completely rational while they were panicked. I got a lot of cinemasins vibes from this guy. Specifically searching for the bad things of the movie and never thinking about it for more than 5 seconds. It doesn't seem like he weighed out the options at all. He literally called a dozer flimsy as hell because it was dusty.

As far as the realities of their biology is concerned, considering it is a monster movie, there are all sorts of explanations for calorie intake. Maybe there is a whole underground ecosystem under the desert that has been previously undiscovered, and the encroachment of man is just the newest item on the menu. IIRC the sequels basically end up saying that they are hyper-adaptive and evolve pretty much immediately (at one point there's even flying ones but its been ages since I've seen the sequels.) The barbed wire fence left around "for no reason" was also foreshadowed both in the movie and in your script earlier in the video; our dynamic duo are lazy, get-rich-quick dreamers that abandoned working on the fences after one post, leaving the rest of it lying around.

I didn't think of all of the points made, but even as a kid I wondered why, when the last graboid came out of the ground looking for Val and company, Burt chose to hit the ground with the butt of his proven ELEPHANT RIFLE instead of...shooting the graboid. I get it, he wasn't as close and it may not have been a fatal shot. But a couple .60ish holes in the thing isn't really any more dumb of an approach than anything else. Also, cliffs are by definition thick rock. This movie would have made infinitely more sense in rural Montana.

Honestly, while the franchise on the whole had its ups and downs, you can't deny that it's a great series of movies, (and the tv show was good too), and while my personal favorite is the fourth one, the first one deserves a lot of credit for how it did things. In particular, compared to most monster movies, the vast majority of the movie is in broad daylight, the victims are just everyday people trying to live their lives in a normal small town, and the monster is something that's both simple and effective. The movie honestly doesn't even have that big of a body count compared to most monster movies who rely too much on "everyone dies" to make the monsters seem more terrifying.

I think the road workers arent part of the town, juts sent to work on the road. Most of the houses are only on cement blocks, not an entire slab, so the worms lifting up only a portion of the houses isnt lifting the entire house, not of the buildings looked like they were built too structurally sound except for Berts place.. The bulldozer is still pretty heavy to lift, even at 15-10 tons, considering the worms themselves are prolly only 2-4 tons. But yeah, they shouldve held up at Bert's place instead of attempting to leave, Bacon even stated as much when Bert and his wife were goona try to get help, that they'd be long dead before they got back.

I disagree that the Gummers leaving is a bad idea. The next worm they would have to kill would have to make a new hole in their wall. The size and damage the first worm did severely weakened the structure. A second worm inna new spot would undoubtedly make the basement bunker a very dangerous place to be. Not to mention the worms could just bring down the top level, trapping them inside. His decision to leave, was the right decision. Either you risk hanging out and getting buried in the basement, or, you risk having the roof you're standing on to fall out from under you. Sure, they could have attacked the worms from the roof, but it would have taken quite a bit of ammo with the earth adding extra armor to the worms. The bulldozer idea isn't bad until the worms figure out the trench idea. It's mass is compact, denser. More solid. Makes it harder for the worms to lift or move such force. A home has it weight spread about more, more oddly distributed. Offers weak points, they weren't lifting the homes and large structures up, they couldn't even lift up the trailers and RVs. They could top em over, move them a bit, but not lift up. And the graboids only do that on stationary targets, giving them time to dig under you. So, moving would be a good option. Id give staying at the bunker a fifty fifty shot at working. Id give the bulldozer escape plan about the same chance. So, I wouldn't call it a bad decision on Burts part. It's a judgement call, and it's a crap shoot. I tend to agree with him, in that scenario, it's better to be on the move.

This is 1 of many movies/situations where the plan to hunker down is the best option. Also, Nancy does actually make a point about people coming to look for them. There is a scene (I forget which cut of the movie) of another road worker having shown up & gotten eaten. With now 3 workers not checking in or otherwise unaccounted for in a remote desert valley people outside the valley WILL take notice. It might take a few more guys getting eaten but eventually the road work company would be calling the police about a bunch of missing workers &/or the massive rock slide blocking the road. All of that is just on the road workers end though. What about the mailman & delivery drivers for the store? Surely, at least 1 of them would report the blocked road & abandoned vehicles? Or be reported missing by their family/employers if they get eaten & don't continue their routes? Again, it might take a few days &/or guys getting eaten but eventually help would come.

In defense of the bulldozer plan. The graboid was lifting the sides and corners of the general store, which would take significantly less force to do than what you implied. The bulldozer has its' weight more compressed in comparison. If you remember earlier in the movie, they were able to rip off one of the tongues with the truck. The truck of course has a lot less pulling power and traction than the bulldozer.

Kevin Bacon's Sidekick Earl looks like a time traveling Jon Bernthal. Great character actor. The sidekick to heroes and villains throughout the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s.

I mean, in middle school and high school for gym, I had to learn how to do the high jump. Graboids don't know what a vehicle is so wouldn't know to disable it right away. Setting up in the houses would be the worse thing since they'll eventually tore it out from under you. As well for Earl and Val going back to warn everyone, everyone else would've been left completely unprepared resulting in everyone dying instead of just a few. The houses didn't have proper foundations since they're in the sand, you can see it when they lift the mom's and daughter house that it didn't have a proper foundation to it. As well enough holes in Burt house it would cave in. Burt bunker isn't enough protection to stop the graboids. Sorry don't think this was your strongest how to beat.

I'm glad you decided to show a how to beat of this classic monster film, this movie is a great example of making a good monster movie on a budget! Any chance of showing a How To Beat video for another lesser known monster movie called Sabertooth? It's about a genetically created sabertooth tiger that has escaped and goes on a killing spree.

I can see where a lot of these points are coming from, but a lot of them just aren't well thought out. He talks a lot about how they should've fortified the town and laid traps or stayed in the Gummer's bunker but they literally didn't know about the worms being underground until Val, Earl, and Rhonda had seen them and told the town within a very short time of when the worms got to town. There's no way they could've prepared in the amount of time they had. They even show why the bunker is a bad idea because the graboids are able to break through the walls. They could just slowly chip away at all the walls until they would've been completely surrounded and there was very little chance to survive. The point about the buildings being sturdy and that they're too heavy for the worms to break was completely invalidated if he actually watched the movie. They were literally collapsing the buildings and it didn't matter if the people were making sound or not. He talked about how they should've used distractions instead of pole vaulting, but how far could they throw the rocks to attract the worms awy without any problems. Being on the ground at any point would've been extremely risky and the pole vaulting assured that they eould be away from the ground and a lot more safe if anything did go wrong. He makes it seem like everyone wasn't talking and plotting through any of their plans and made them up on a whim, but they literally spend time talking through their choices and their line of reasoning. He also expects way too much from people who are definitely in a panicked state. Your partner gets suddenly dragged into the ground and you have no clue why or how and you desperately want to try and save them. She ran to the car because she though she could possibly get away but didn't have the keys. If she had managed to get out of the car while it was being pulled underground, she probably wouldn't have made it far cause the graboid probably would've sensed that she was running away and would've gone after her. There wasn't much for anyone to do at any point if they were taken by surprise since they bever really knew what they were going up against.

Love this movie! Born in 01 so been watching it for as long as I can remember! Totally agree that someone should’ve warned the doctor and his wife, but to be fair I would’ve definitely thought I’d be safe in my vehicle based on the feeler she seen come out of the hole Jim sank into. Also thinking that the feelers are individual animals and not the tongue of a larger animal I wouldn’t think it could get into my car or bury it either😅
