| Q |
Here's a major one. You fans have done it again. In his T-3 town meeting briefing, Burt says
the Graboids are moving down from the North, "just like last time." But in a chat room
discussion forwarded to S.S. Wilson, some fans point out that in fact, all the early Graboid
victims in T-1 are South of Perfection, i.e., between Perfection and Bixby! |
| Q |
n Tremors 1, why didn't the townspeople just take truck Rhonda's to the base of the jeep trail?
With the trail being a mountain path, the Graboids wouldn't be able to follow, and the people
could walk safely to Bixby. I know the real answer is that it would just kill the whole movie
plot, but what's the "creative" reason? |

| Q |
A friend asked me, “Why didn't the Graboid scream when it regurgitated the bomb that landed on

took cover then returned to the food. |
| Q |
Were swear words cut out or “looped” (replaced) in the original Tremors to get the PG 13
rating? |
| Q |
Val and Earl say at the end that Burt gave them the new tires for the Jeep, but how did they
mount them on the rims? They couldn't use rims Burt had since Jeep rims don't match his Chevy
rims. Chevy has six holes and Jeeps had/have five holes. Perfection doesn’t seem to have a
garage where they could do tire changes and stuff. |
