This week marks the 25th anniversary of the theatrical release of Tremors, the ultimate monster movie throwback featuring giant subterranean worms and a post-Footloose Kevin Bacon. From an overabundance of the word “goddamn” to all the witty banter between a bunch of rural Nevadans, take a moment to remember and re-live the film’s finest dialogue. Just a bit of advice — don’t use #4 as a pickup line under any circumstances, whatsoever.
1. “That’s how they get you. They’re under the goddamn ground!”
2. “Must be a million of them!” “Nope, just one.”
3. “F*ck you!”
4. “Hey check this out — I found the ass end!”
5. “You guys know how to pole vault?”
6. “Get off the pogo stick!”
7. “Broke into the wrong goddamn rec room didn’t you, you bastard!?”
8. “What kind of fuse is that?” “Cannon fuse.” “What the hell do you use it for?” “My cannon.”
9. “Run for it? Running’s not a plan! Running’s what you do once a plan fails.”
10. “Can you fly, you sucker?”
