You ever just miss video stores? Like really miss them? The smell of plastic cases, the hum of fluorescent lights, that little “thunk” sound when you dropped your tape in the return slot. I used to go every Friday night, no matter what. And there was this one movie I used to rent all the time — had monsters, dirt flying everywhere, maybe Kevin Bacon? It was funny, and scary, and it had these giant worm things under the ground… and—wait. Hang on. That’s it. That’s the one! It was Tremors! Oh my god. I loved that movie. And this week on The Rotten Horror Picture Show Podcast, Clay and Amanda are talking about exactly that dusty, dusty gem: the 1990 cult classic Tremors.

They’re diving deep into the creature-feature madness, celebrating the perfect blend of monster horror, comedy, and small-town weirdness. Clay and Amanda chat about the unlikely hero duo of Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward, the pure '90s charm of practical effects, and of course, the lovable, heavily-armed survivalists played by Michael Gross and Reba McEntire. It’s a B-movie with A+ energy, and honestly, one of the best times you’ll ever have being afraid to touch the ground.

So if you’ve ever wandered the horror aisle and picked up a tape because of the cool monster on the cover, or if you’re still trying to remember the name of that one VHS you rented every summer — this episode is for you. Clay and Amanda are bringing it all back with their latest installment of horror nostalgia. Now if I could just find that other movie with the killer snowman… or was it a vampire dog? Nevermind. Tremors it is.
