Graboids are Back: Tremors Creators Regain Script Rights and Plan for a New Installment

It’s been 30 years since the release of the cult classic horror-comedy film, Tremors, and fans of the franchise are buzzing with excitement. Stampede Entertainment, the team behind the first four Tremors movies, has won back the rights to the original script from Universal Studios. This means director Ron Underwood, writers Brent Maddock and S.S. Wilson, and producer Nancy Roberts now have creative control over the future of the franchise. And the best part? We might see the return of Kevin Bacon as Valentine McKee in a new installment.

For those who may not know, Tremors follows the story of a small town called Perfection, where giant worm-like creatures known as “graboids” terrorize the residents. The film was a surprise hit and spawned three sequels, each with its own unique take on the graboids. However, Stampede Entertainment was shut out of Universal’s three most recent sequels, Tremors 5: Bloodlines, Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell, and the upcoming Tremors 7. But now, the creators are back in the driver’s seat and ready to give fans what they’ve been waiting for.

In a statement on their website, the team wrote, “We aren’t reading outside ideas. We are discussing a return-to-Perfection sequel, and one or two more outlandish ideas featuring graboids in new settings.” This is great news for fans who have been eagerly waiting for a sequel that stays true to the original film’s spirit. And it seems like the team is determined to deliver just that.

But what does this mean for the future of the franchise? With Stampede Entertainment back in charge, we can expect a fresh take on the beloved graboids. According to the team, they are not interested in a remake or a version of their original script for Tremors 5. This means we can look forward to new, exciting storylines and settings for the graboids to wreak havoc in. And with Kevin Bacon potentially returning to the franchise, fans are overjoyed at the possibility of seeing him reprise his role as Valentine McKee.

The news of Stampede Entertainment regaining the rights to the original script has sent shockwaves through the horror community. Fans have been eagerly waiting for a worthy sequel to the original film, and it seems like their dreams are finally coming true. The fact that the original creators are back in charge is a promising sign that the franchise is in good hands.
