Tremors II: Aftershocks Page #4

Synopsis: When an army of Graboids - giant, carnivorous underground worms - threaten the Petromaya oil refinery in Mexico, its owners call on Earl Bassett, who once helped kill four of the creatures in Perfection, Nevada. Having squandered the money that came from his resulting celebrity status, Earl is convinced by the $50,000-a-head bounty offered, as well as the enthusiasm of admirer Grady Hoover, who becomes his partner. At Petromaya, Earl and Grady meet geologist Kate Reilly, and begin Graboid hunting, tricking several Graboids into swallowing bomb-rigged, remote-controlled cars. When they find they're facing a lot more Graboids than they ever expected, Earl calls his friend Burt Gummer, a survivalist who arrives well-stocked with weapons.

That's right.

That's small, Earl.

You're thinkin' small.

See, I'm thinkin'

big, okay?

I'm thinkin' theme park.

Now, now.

"Grady Hoover's World

of Natural Wonders."

Whoa! Or, you know,

maybe somethin' simple,

like "Monster World,"

or "Monsterland"...

or "Worm World."

How 'bout "Looney World"?

Seems to fit.

Get off the ground!

It's vision, Earl.

Vision is what separates

the average...

I know that song.

Jesus! Get off the ground,

Grady! Get off the ground!

Whoa!

Jesus, man,

those things are huge!

Shh! Be quiet!

Did you see that mouth?

Oh, no.

It snagged the chain.

Can it do that?

It can't be that strong.

Son of a b*tch!

- Hit the brakes!

- I am! I did!

It doesn't work!

Earl!

What do I do?

- I don't know.

Do anything!

- Ooh!

- Cliff!

- Oh, no.

He stopped. He stopped.

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, come on.

Rock!

Rock!

He's going under it!

Turn! Turn the wheel!

- Turn!

- I'm trying; I'm trying!

Oh, God, oh, God!

Yee-ha!

All right.

You all right?

Wow, chain broke

right off.

Jesus, we're lucky.

Well, truck seems

to be all right.

Earl, that's gonna be the first

ride in my theme park.

Doesn't anything

ever get you down?

Well, I'm blessed

with a sunny disposition.

Most people

seem to like it.

Oh, yeah? What does this

do for your disposition?

I think we're gonna

need some help.

Help? Who'd be crazy enough

to help us with this mess?

The big guns pounded enemy

positions for 72 straight hours.

It was the deadliest

bombardment of the siege.

Yeah?

Hey, Burt, it's Earl.

How ya doin'?

Listen, um,

If this sounds kinda funny, it's

'cause I'm on a radio phone.

It's the only way we

can call out of this place.

Earl? Oh... Earl.

Haven't seen you in a while.

Well, I haven't seen you.

Guess you've been layin'

kinda low, huh?

Layin' low?

No. Negative.

I've been real busy...

lots of projects.

So, uh, how

you and Heather doing?

Well, she, uh...

She's still visiting her sister.

Yeah?

You know, she actually...

blames our problems on the

collapse of the Soviet Union?

Well, you did take that

kinda hard, Burt.

Said I was hard to live with.

Said I couldn't handle life

without the threat of war.

What kind of thing

is that to say to a man?

Well, I don't know, Burt...

Anyway, it takes more

than that to get me down.

I been running around so much,

it's lucky you caught me home.

Well, in that case, I don't know

if you'd be interested in this.

I'm down in Mexico,

see, and I find myself

in a sort of situation.

What kind of situation?

A graboid

kind of situation.

Hey, you keepin'

an eye on that monitor?

Uh, yeah, I'm watchin' it.

They're just stayin' up north.

- Oh, my God!

What?
